Question
Setting up multiple wordpress sites on Ubuntu 14.04 VPS
Hi - Just a simple question but what I am wanting to do is setup multiple WordPress sites on a single Ubuntu 14.04 VPS and my question is regarding the folder structure for the content of the files in /var/www. In this tutorial by Justin, [https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-multiple-wordpress-sites-on-a-single-ubuntu-vps](http://) (based on a Ubuntu 12.04) the files are placed in /var/www/firstsite/ , /var/www/secondsite/ etc… However, I have noticed that in Justin’s tutorial for setting up one WordPress site in Ubuntu 14.04 [https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-wordpress-on-ubuntu-14-04](http://) , the documents are placed in /var/www/html/. so my question is this, should my folder on Ubuntu 14.04 for multiple WordPress site look like this /var/www/html/firstsite/ , /var/www/html/secondsite/ or should it just look like this: /var/www/firstsite/ , /var/www/secondsite/ etc… as per Justin’s tutorial for Ubuntu 12.04?
Any help much appreciated, Michael

Looks like his tutorial has the directory structure as /var/www/FirstSite/ and /var/www/SecondSite/. An excerpt:
