The difference between hosting and a website
This guide details the technical and administrative aspects of hosting multiple websites on the same platform.
Technically speaking
A single hosting package can encompass various websites. Therefore, it's possible to add multiple websites to one hosting account (multi-site / multi-domain management). In this scenario, the resources of the hosting (disk space, databases, script execution time, and memory, etc.) are shared among the various websites on the hosting account.
The basic Cloud Server plan includes a certain number of hostings (e.g., 5) and a higher number of websites (e.g., 20). In this example, that means you could create 20 websites (with 20 different domains/subdomains) that you can freely organize across your 5 hosting accounts.
Administratively speaking
Regarding the organization within the Infomaniak Manager, management and access rights cannot be assigned to a specific website on a hosting account. A user that you add to the organization cannot have rights limited to just one site; they will always have access to the entire hosting account.
However, at the server data level, it is possible to create an FTP user restricted to a specific folder (this should be limited to the folder where the site is located).
Managing a single site among others on the same hosting can also be considered directly within the tool used for the site (e.g., WordPress user management).
