Playing around with hosting wordpress websites for Plan B, very low revenue at the moment but it's better than nothing.
At the moment I am using Azure hosting, I have 1 MySQL server (2 CPU, 8GB Ram, SSD) and each website is being hosted on a small dedicated VM (1 CPU 1.75 GB Ram).
Everything has been running for a while and server load is minimal even on the lower spec. I know from a maintenance point of view having one server with multiple websites would be better for OS patching etc, but are there any other advantages of having a single higher spec webserver with multiple sites running on it, rather than having each site on a dedicated low power server?
