 * Hi all,
    Anyone know if installing a woocommerce shop on a subsite of the network(
   with all the features of a super admin ) be less powerful and stable than an 
   woocommerce installed in the main site of the platform? I made the example of
   an Ecommerce, but I could have said anything else that requires a solid website
   structure. I just need to know if the subsites I want to add with wp Multisite
   can work as fine as the main site do, or if being subsites can’t be used for 
   big projects. Let me underline one more time that I’d give the subsite all the
   credentials of a super admin. Hope in your help. Thanks in advance

 * What exactly do you mean? There is no difference. It is just a WordPress site.
   I would worry about your server if you want a big project and about the plugins
   and WordPress itself. Not about main or subsite.

 * [@nnikolov](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nnikolov/) Thanks, you already
   answered me saying there is no difference.
    When you say to worry about the server
   and the plugins, you mean that the website would be too much vulnerable for having
   too many plugins? I’m trying to install just the essential ones and for sure 
   just premium and up dated ones. What about the server? Should I look for the 
   capacity? or any safety issues? Thanks in advance

 * Well, I thought you are asking about speed, performance and server load, these
   kind of stuff. Because you said big projects. So what I mean is that the things
   that affect these things are using WordPress itself (instead of custom made site),
   using poorly made plugins, and of course how powerful the server is. And the 
   theme also affects speed. But subsite or main site will not affect these stuff.
