If you want to know the best way to manage all of your WordPress websites then this video
is for you hi my name is Adam from WPCrafter.com where I make WordPress videos for non-techies
and I know for me as soon as I started to get 234 websites into one he websites it is
a nightmare to keep tabs on all of them and to keep them all organized and it gets exponentially
worse if you're managing clients websites in your keeping tabs and keeping eyes on them
keeping them updated it can be a lot to manage now the good news is there are different options
available to manage all of the WordPress websites that you have control over very very easily
and this is something that you want to think about if you have more than one website even
if you have just two or three websites you're going to want to pay attention to this video
and I want to go through all of the different options out there, to share with you all the
ones that I use and at the end of the video me to tell you which one I am still using
and I think is the best solution for this problem and I'm also going to show you how
to use it your self so these solutions that are there there's some that are what's called
sass software as a service so everything's had a hosted in the cloud view link in the
control panel to all of your WordPress websites and there's also two that are self hosted
that means you would have full control full reign over everything full control over your
data but you would be self hosting it now some of these options they charge per site
some have a lifetime fee were you just pay a lifetime fee and you can have as many sites
and some of them there actually free platforms and that's actually kind of the direction
I notice a lot of them going into is to providing a certain amount of websites for free so if
you have lessons and websites and your needs are very basic then you're going to definitely
find some free options out of this video and some of these solutions they are very feature-rich
you can automate not just updating your plug-ins and themes in WordPress that you can have
a central component control panel to automate making sure everything's backed up monitoring
the uptime generating reports for clients based upon the things you might've done to
the website for them in a certain period of time managing WooCommerce a store managing
in and pushing out new content managing comments doing malware scans there's just so many different
things that you could do when you're using one of these control panels well enough gapping
for me let me just show you some of the options and I want to go over the main four options
the first one is called manage WP and I think they might have been the first platform like
this I could be wrong it's a tie between this one and another one I'm going to show you
now this is a software as a service you you they have different pricing tiers to show
you in a moment now keep in mind that this was a privately owned company but a few months
back Go Daddy did purchase them and some for some people they see that is a big negative
having's anything time to go daddy because it's a software as a service who knows what's
going to happen to your customer data or what errors are that kind information so you know
that something to definitely think about I'm not implying or saying anything bad can happen
to your customer data if you have them in this managed WP platform I will say that the
platform that's can have the prettiest interface is most likely going to be manage WP but it's
also because it's the most expensive so they actually have this before but they have it
now they actually have a free tear where you can actually start using the service for free
and it's going to give you access to some of these options here but if you scroll down
these are really the options you're gonna want if you're doing this for customers or
even yourself so if you want automated backup if you want a white label to the white labeling
is an interesting point just you know the way these all of these solutions work you
have a control panel and then you have to install it you have to install a plug-in on
the website that generates that Lincoln so when they say white labeling it's white labeling
that plug and that gets installed on the website that you're remotely controlling that's what
white label is you want to analyze a Seo rankings uptime advance reports now look at each of
these things is one or two dollars per month per website so you can see how it's going
to get expensive really quick I personally don't use manage WP I've never used manage
WPA because I don't like the way they price it so this is probably though the fanciest
interface and the prettiest interface all of these platforms are pretty much could do
the same thing so you really boils down to cost and you want software as a service or
self hosted that's just my opinion okay so this is managed WP there there got here is
I themes they came out with something called I themes sink and it does a lot of the same
stuff and you can read all about it here let me scroll down to the pricing all the way
down here\'85 Okay they have a free tear your to get 10 websites and they have probably
the one of the most reasonable price for the software as a service options so for just
25 websites you're only paying $50 a year now that is actually not that expensive for
everything that this is going to bring to Dick to you and I'm sure the package that
it offers you the features that it comes with our very complete as far as backups go in
all that however what I don't like about it is I'm I'm not a fan of backup buddy they
also make plug-ins I themes one of them's backup buddy some people swear by it but that's
because it was probably the first real commercial backup solution that was out I find it very
outdated and slow unreliable and everything bad that you can think of has been my personal
experience is not an opinion it's it's it's actually based on experience with it up drafts
for a commercial backup plug-in is way way better from my experience so if you have question
about my expense I'll add it down below but here is I themes sink now working to get into
the self hosted options one of them is called infinite WP and I actually own this I was
using this when they first started really going after this these paid add-ons and I
actually have the full package and their pricings a little different but this definitely bit
more innovative now this isn't WordPress so you're installing an application on your server
is not hard to install it's just not WordPress so it's not to look like WordPress or anything
like that looks like a real control panel and for this you can choose any of these packages
now you can see it's more expensive than I themes sink is but it's more feature-rich
than I themes sink so if I went to add-ons when you get any of these packages this can
include all of these really innovative add-ons right here staging add-on you're not getting
that with lightning sink that's pretty awesome two factor authentication client reporting
schedule backups and there's multiple locations where you can back your websites up you can
clone the websites through it you can have multiple users and you can actually have this
team environment where you can maybe have some people that work for you and you give
them permissions of what they can and cannot do to these sites you have scanners for malware
you have a firewall monitoring uptime Google analytics in it and the list goes on and on
and on you really get a lot more with infinite WP than the other two platforms even offer
I guess the question is do you need some of these extra things and then there's a main
WP now I'm going to just tell you finally I use main WP even though I own infinite WP
even though there's free tears on the other two I use main WP and I have been using it
for the last two years and they have a free version that I'm actually going to install
in this video but it's the same thing where it is actually so easy to implement it's the
the control panel is a word press plug-in and you manage everything in the back end
of a WordPress installation so it is so easy to use your already use to the interface you
don't have to learn anything new is just a matter of installing it now the core plug-in
is free and they have add-ons as well now you can just purchase whatever add-ons that
you want or you can buy the entire bundle on a monthly or a lifetime package so you
can click right here and let's look at some of the extensions they have this just so many
love the same things I listed on infinite WP have the same extensions here your uptime
monitor you can use the backup solution of your choice and so what that means is if you
want to use backup buddy you can use it if you want to use a blog vault you want to use
backup WP if you want to use updrafts which has my favorite and keep in mind this is the
only solution that supports updrafts you can use that as well and it also has its own backup
extension although they realize that people most likely want to use their specific plug-in
and that's one of things I really love about this is I want to use updrafts I want to use
a management platform that lets me use what I want to use a lets me have the choice versus
doing it for me so you have all these various options here both settings manager cloning
client reports you can customize some of the way the children sites back and looks there
is four pages of extensions there's WooCommerce extensions I'm knocking to go into each and
every one but it's definitely a lot more deep than all the other platforms let's take a
look at the cost now you can purchase them on an extension by extension basis and just
get what you want you saw a lot of the extensions might've just been a $30 one-time fee or $40
one time fee so this actually ends up being less expensive because you're just getting
what you want or what you need now here is the full package as though if you just wanted
everything it's either $30 per month $200 per year or 399 400 bucks one-time lifetime
fees you're only paying 400 bucks and you don't have to pay anything else moving forward
if they add new extensions and release new features and extensions you're not paying
for that which I think is pretty awesome now if you're an agent senior managing lots of
websites for people I think that main WP is the best way to go because there extensions
in my opinion are more innovative than what you're getting from the other platforms from
all the other platforms I find that the main WP extensions are just better and I really
think it boils down to they allow you to use what you want to use so for instance on most
of my websites I use WP rocket which is a caching plug-in while they have an extension
for that so I can easily apply the settings that I want to all of my websites for backup
I like to use updrafts although I've been using WP time capsule I still have updrafts
and they let me use updrafts and I can easily configure every website with one mouse click
and when I add a new website I can easily configure it as well they let me create plug-in
bundles so I had can have my own list of plug-ins and just with a few mouse clicks I can install
them on any website that I want so when I add a new website it's really easy for me
to get all those plug-ins installed in it they also just re-released a new version of
their client reporting module which allows you to make beautiful reports that you can
send automatically to your clients that you're managing their websites which is really good
to justify what you might be charging them per year or per month and I really really
like that you know what on second thought him to go back and let's just look at all
these extensions right here because I think it's going to be worth it so let me just change
this here so it the bundle has 39 looks like it has 39 extensions and a scroll through
and say what's very interesting to me book settings manager broken link checker the others
don't have that are will find broken links that you might have branding so that means
you can brand or white label or even hide the child plug-in that's really good client
reports that's just recently been updated clone to clone websites custom post types
you can actually manage content on custom post types that's new manage con comments
you can add code snippet steers the favorite singer song about where you can have your
favorite plug-in that you can easily push into your websites I really like this file
upload or so essentially if I have a plug-in that I have to manually update on all of my
sites I can actually just uploaded here and push it out to all of those websites so it
is almost like a one click updates will maybe like a two click update we got Google analytics
we can manage are links who have I theme security that some of the actual security plug-in I
uses I theme security so I don't have to manually configure those on every website I just click
one mouse and it's done maintenance is good it will actually perform maintenance routines
on your database and it will also clean out some of the things in your WordPress website
like revisions and deleted things in auto drafts you get this and maintenance that I
didn't really see on some of the other options you can use backup buddy you can monitor page
is speed you can trip outposts you can use pubic I know I'm pronouncing that wrong that's
like a Google analytics but self hosted you can do security you can spend your WP rocket
that's what I used team control so you can have team members that only have certain rights
to the websites here's the updraft extension and just check that out it's actually for
Marie's you can start using that now URL extractor here some WooCommerce a specific stuff and
get some snapshot of your were WooCommerce stores that you're managing scans for vulnerabilities
word friends WordPress SCO Yoast while the list just went on and on with the things that
you could do here so essentially it's just super easy you going to the back end of your
WordPress website\ go to this one go to plug-ins add new and
just enter in main WP there is and so for the control panel you want to install this
main WP dashboard and you would just install that and it would convert the website to be
the control panel I'd recommend not putting this on your main company's website I would
maybe set up a subdomain and call it whatever you want to call maybe dashboard.your domain
name.com maybe something like that and then for your children sites are going to install
this right here main WP child and what that's going to allow you to do is manage that particular
site when you install it it's just to give you code you copy and paste that code into
the dashboard app and where you have that installed and you are set the link is good
to go I currently have about 25 to 30 sites at any given time with main WP and what I
do is actually have an automated so essentially it's going to check in on every website once
a day and on my approved list of plug-ins and themes it's can automatically update those
for me so I don't even really have to do anything it automatically is going to manage those
sites for me I love it and lastly right here is actually something pretty innovative that
they have it's this key maker you'd have to want to look at that on your own this is probably
the most innovative thing that they have essentially what this allows you to do is any area of
your WordPress website that you have to put your settings and stuff like that even if
main WP doesn't support it with this add-on you can actually take a site put your settings
in and you save this key thing and you put it into your main to VP dashboard and now
you can actually be able to automatically configure those settings on any site that
you want so essentially it's can allow you to manage any plug-in that you would want
to put on your WordPress website so even if it's that fringe offshoot plug-in that no
one has any integration with with this key maker you can actually integrate with that
they have some videos on it that show you how to use it I can't think that might be
the most game changing but under undervalued feature in this entire platform is that you
can literally bulk and configure anything on any WordPress website with that and this
is something that you can do with any of these other hosted platforms hey sorry for the long
length of this video if you want to manage multiple websites I'd choose main WP but all
of these platforms I talked about today are great options I've gone ahead and put links
to everything down below in the video description box and also add them to the pin comment below
so if you have multiple websites that you're managing I would love to hear what platform
you think is best and why if you can just add that down in the comment section down
below I'd love to hear your opinions on these different platforms that I've talked about
today
