If you recently signed up for SiteGround hosting (thanks to our awesome 70% off deal!) and read the fine print, you already know that you can host multiple WordPress sites though the same hosting account! After migrating my existing site over to SiteGround, I wanted to set up a new site and put the free new domain that came with new hosting account to good use. If you’re ready to launch your new site too, here’s how to do it though SiteGround:

1. Login to your existing SiteGround account.
2. If you don’t already have a new domain, head over to your “Add Services” tab and register a new one. Skip this step if you’re setting up the domain you registered when you signed up for your new hosting account.
