I am in doubt whether to add a second domain to my droplet or if i should create another droplet to host a new domain. Someone to shed a light on this issue?

×@Areku Well, it depends on what you’re hosting. If it’s the same system, just different domains, then it might be easier and beneficial to have everything in on server.
But maybe you want to separate everything for security, legal or maybe accounting purposes, then you would use multiple servers.
There’s no clear answer.
Yes, the same system, just another domain, different sites, but both on wordpress. But i would like this additional domain have also the https prefix. Is it possible? Do we have a orientation on to set up the certificate in this tutorial [https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-nginx-server-blocks-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-16-04](http://)?
Okay, I’m guessing you’re talking about Let’s Encrypt - if yes, follow this guide:

I followed this tut, but I am serving multiple domains from one droplet. is it possible to have multiple certs per single droplet?
these lines are problematic:
listen 443 ssl http2 defaultserver;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2 defaultserver;
because you can use default_server only once
I’ve tried a couple different approaches but this might not be possible
Hi @kylebradshaw
Correct, just use default_server once - or not at all.
You can have multiple certificates, just like you can have multiple domains, hosted from the same web server.
But since it seems like your problem might be a little different, so can you start a new question instead?
