It’s against this backdrop that Lisbon-based Polyrocha offers its expertise in the design and deployment of multi-site WordPress site factories, also known as “digital factories”.

Understanding the site factory concept

A site factory is a centralized platform enabling an organization to manage multiple websites from a single WordPress installation. This approach offers unified governance, simplified maintenance and a significant reduction in operational costs. By pooling resources, companies can ensure graphic and functional consistency across all their sites, while meeting the specific needs of each local market.

• Cost reduction: pooling of technical and human resources, resulting in lower hosting, maintenance and development costs.
• Flexibility and scalability: Ability to rapidly deploy new sites or adapt existing ones to strategic developments or market needs.
• Analysis and optimization: Access to consolidated analytical data, facilitating the identification of best practices and continuous performance improvement.
