I just purchased 6 different domains and deluxe hosting. I installed wordpress on each one. The problem I am facing is the sites being linked. I need a different wordpress site for each domain name. Not all the sites working from one wordpress admin. Do I have to purchase hosting for each of these sites or is there a way to make it so I have a different WP site for each domain. I do not want them to all be the same. I need 6 different pages on 6 different sites not 1 on 6 different domains.

    You have 6 domains with 1 hosting. Therefore, your hosting account will have one domain among those 6 domains as a primary domain.

    You should login to your account panel, and add new External Domains/Addon Domains, so it will have their own folder for you to setup each Wordpress for each sites.

    This is just some basic idea!

    When I click install and install WP on each domain they all get linked together for some reason.

    After I go into WP admin panel on one of the sites I installed it on and change something, it changes it on all the domains each with different logins/installs set up. Like if I had a template, changing one site changes them all so the sites are always the same.

    That sounds very unusual.

    I would contact GoDaddy Support as that just shouldn't happen.

    I think what you need is an addon domain. According to godaddy you can host multiple websites using the deluxe hosting package. You just have to create a folder for the website, upload the files and configure the domain's DNS to point to your hosting. For most web hosting services I know this is called addon domain. You'd be able to install separate wordpress for each domain and everything will be separate but will reside on the same hosting.

    If you need more help, you can pm me.

    Probably all add on domains are pointing to the same location, instead of different folders. So instead of creating six installations, it is overwriting each installation and you are seeing the same from all domain names.

    Otherwise, somehow the script installer created only one database, instead of separate databases - or the user specified something which forced it to. Godaddy use a custom control panel, so I can not confirm. As already sugested, Godaddy customer service should be able to find the exact reason and help fixing it.

    You can always manually set up wordpress, if it is the script installer that is creating trouble.

      You can have one deluxe account and six different WordPress sites on that account. Each domain needs to be installed as an alais domain on the hosting plan. Also you just need to ensure your hosting plan supports that many databases if you plan to add more. This guide will cover how to add alias domains to your hosting account: Managing Your Hosting Account Domains | Go Daddy Help | Go Daddy Support Each domain needs its own directory and WordPress gets installed to that domain in that directory. Support is also here 24/7 to see how you have it set up and to assist getting it all set up properly on the hosting plan. ^Colby Go Daddy Social Media Team

    It's just the add ons domain.
    Add your domains to your Folders as you want, such : yourdomain.com/folder1, yourdomain/com/folder2
    If you don't want to upload many database,
    try this.
    Wp-admin -> setting -> Pernament links -> %post%
    then, if you have a category as :
    - Yourdomain.com/category1 <--- add on domain 1 here
    - yourdomain.com/categry2 <--- add on domain 2 here.

    But you will have the primary domain to run.

          But you are right: next time I will not bother replying to you, I will just delete it.
