 * I haven’t used multiple tables. I have only used multiple databases. I just prefer
   to have a clean installation for every separate blog, so that if I have troubles,
   I don’t have a lot of websites down.
 * If your hosting provider limits the number of databases that you can use, I might
   be tempted to use multiple tables, but I might be even more tempted to change
   hosting accounts.
 * I run more than 30 websites myself and have set up countless others. I still 
   prefer a clean, separate installation for each account.
 * If your interested, you might see what I have to offer, but I’m not trying to
   sell, just give you an option. [http://www.upstartmediamarketing.com](http://www.upstartmediamarketing.com)
