    Hi
    I wish to know user feedback on Multisite for WP. I have around 40+ domains lying around and I wish to setup sites with articles and affiliates etc.

    Is multisite preferred or individual site? I will not be updating all the sites and may be update it twice a year. Will set things on auto-post by future dates or something.

    Also, being a novice to coding, back in past I had issues where I tried to install plugin or update wp and it screwed up the website and I had to rebuilt it again and again.

    So if I use multi-wp, is there a chance where one mistake can takedown all other websites?

    Needs some user feedback....

    You should be ok. Its certainly a bit quicker to set up new subdomains with wpmu and map them to a domain.

    I have done this a few times lately. Its actually pretty simple.

    I would recommend to use a VPS for a Wordpress multisite. Because as you will be installing a lot plugins they may utilize lot of resources. Wordpress is majorly targeted by spammers. So I recommend to install security plugins as well. To aviod issues. If you need any help let me know.
