 * Ok graynotgrey. My domain, for user blogs in subdomains, is hosted in hostgator
   reseller plan. I will follow your advice and I set it up the system on a single
   database of WordPress MU.
 * Maybe, another option could be install individual wordpress (no multisite), on
   each subdomain for users. But if i do this, then the blogs are not connected 
   to each other, and users who want to comment on one or the other, they can not
   because they do not serve the user and pass data.
 * Definitely, I think your advice is the best choice, and so prove it.
    Thanks!

 * Hello graynotgrey, thanks for the info, is very complete, although I have little
   experience with wordpress, I have more experience with joomla. It seems better
   idea to start with WP MU in one DB, and then there will be time to expand, true?
   Now, the question is, how many users blogs can WP MU manage without collapsing
   into a single database?
    best regards

 * Hello ipstenu. I think it is the best option to have separate databases because
   it is easier to manage them. Also, if there are many queries at once to a single
   database of different blogs, could collapse. But I do not know, I speak from 
   intuition.
 * The plugin WP Hive works as WP Multisite, or it is a diferent thing?

 * Hello Sandra, if the plugin works well, it will be great. The article says that
   the standard version of WP MU can handle several hundred blogs in a single database,
   that sounds well, but clearly it is better to have each own blog in a database.
   I will have to test the plugin. I wish someone could comment on their experience
   with this, before.
 * Thanks, sandra.
