  Hello,

  I have created a couple of different sites using Dreamweaver and I have the domains and hosting purchased through GoDaddy. I would like to re-create the sites in WordPress so that I can allow the clients to change content without having to email every time they want a change. I see that ‘domain mapping’ is an option but I don’t want to double my yearly cost for every domain I own. My question is, how do I create multiple sites in WordPress and connect them with their respective domains and hosting which are provided by GoDaddy. Do I have to switch to hosting with WordPress and transfer the domains over or is there any better method then ‘domain mapping’

  You can host WordPress websites on GoDaddy. This is considered a self-hosted WordPress site. You can learn more about self-hosted WordPress at https://wordpress.org and the support forum at https://wordpress.org/support/.

  GoDaddy’s Support Documents will also provide information on setting up WordPress on their hosting accounts.

  Hope this helps!

  I am in the same boat and have no idea on how to go forward without screwing up the email server (about 14’ish email addresses)
