WordPress Multisite on UK VPS - hundreds of sites, one installation, LiteSpeed cache
About This Feature
WordPress Multisite Hosting in the UK from Glitch Servers provides dedicated cloud compute with fixed CPU allocation and no resource contention - backed by AMD Ryzen hardware, NVMe Gen4 storage, and UK-native routing through AS212868. WordPress Multisite allows you to manage hundreds or thousands of WordPress sites from a single installation - ideal for hosting networks, franchise businesses, and agencies managing multiple client sites on a shared codebase. Multisite requires a VPS (shared hosting imposes restrictions on subdomain mapping and network activation). Our UK VPS provides the root access for domain mapping configuration, the RAM to handle multiple concurrent site requests, and LiteSpeed's per-site LSCache support for efficient serving of a large Multisite network.
Performance on Glitch VPS plans is driven by AMD Ryzen 9 7950X processors - single-core clock speeds that handle application workloads, database queries, and concurrent web traffic without the CPU credit limits that cap performance on burstable cloud instances. Storage runs on NVMe Gen4 drives with sequential read speeds of 3,500 MB/s, eliminating the I/O bottleneck that affects VPS plans running on SATA SSD or shared SAN.
Glitch Servers operates AS212868 with direct peering at LINX and LONAP - the London Internet Exchange and London Access Point - providing low-latency paths to BT, Virgin Media, Sky, TalkTalk, and other major UK ISPs without unnecessary Continental European hops. For users connecting across the UK, that translates to consistent single-digit-to-low-double-digit millisecond round-trip times under normal UK network conditions.
Every plan includes Corero Smartwall inline DDoS mitigation operating at the network edge. Traffic scrubbing runs continuously without latency penalty, absorbing volumetric floods before they reach the hypervisor layer. Full plan specifications and pricing are on the UK VPS hosting page.
Key Benefits
Every plan includes these capabilities as standard - no tier-gating, no hidden extras.
Multisite-ready VPS - root access for subdomain/domain mapping configuration
LiteSpeed + LSCache - per-site cache support for Multisite networks
Redis object cache - shared object cache across all Multisite subsites

Technical Specifications
Real specs on real hardware - not marketing numbers.
Recommended: 8 vCPU + 16GB RAM for networks with 50+ active sites
Cache: LiteSpeed LSCache Multisite mode + Redis object cache via WP Redis plugin
Domains: wildcard DNS + WordPress domain mapping for custom domain subsites
Use Cases
This feature is particularly well suited to these workloads and teams.
Agencies and businesses running WordPress Multisite networks with 10–100+ subsites - dedicated VPS resources prevent one subsite's traffic from affecting others, unlike shared hosting.
Regional news sites, publication groups, and content networks using WordPress Multisite for consistent theming and centralised plugin management across multiple properties.
Freelancers offering managed WordPress hosting to clients via Multisite - a single VPS hosts multiple client sites with per-site isolation through object caching and PHP process separation.
