Although there are various ways to design a scaleable website, some of the easiest ways are discussed, which may help your website to grow:
Creating master and duplicated sites: this is one of the easiest ways. You need to create one master site or a main site and some slave sites. The logic behind is to create one main site and then creating replicated
