    I already have 1 WP site. On my own server. I would like to start my second one for another client, also on my own server. How would I go about setting up the admin for a second one? Do I need a second account?

    Thanks much

    when you create the 2nd site , as admin, just create another admin user for the client

    or am I not understanding correctly?

    I have 1 WP site hosted on my server for my business. I have a new client that wants a WP site for their business..which will also be hosted on my server...They are totally separate sites. For theirs I am designing it and making the site and need to create password so they can login and update their own blogs.

    Put the 2nd site in a subfolder and point the client's domain name to it.
    Create a new database for the site.

    Everything else is just like how you set up your first site. You can also create new users and grant them admin permissions to the WordPress backend.

    Thanks guys

    Maybe I should make a new post for this but then how do I preview my site locally before taking it live in the net?
