    Hi,

    I have one blog and will be installing more...but not hundreds. Is there any advantage to one database vs. one per blog? I can create multiple databases on my server.

    And...I notice there were other WordPress options for multiple blogs, MU, etc. Should I consider them or stick with the tried and true?

    Grazie. :)

    There are not that many options - and it always depends on your won needs.
    Several WP installs in one database (if big blogs it may slow down the performance)
    Several WP installs, each with its own DB
    WP MU - for offering blogs to your visitors

    We really cannot answer what you need - YOU should know what your project/plan is... and find the right tool for it.

    I know what my project/plan is, thanks. Just needed a little more info and some clarification to make the best choice.

    Thank you for your feedback.
