# Using Multisite as a development platform

 * I’m just now getting up to speed on multisite. I was wandering if anyone can 
   share their experience with multisite from a development standpoint. Specifically,
   is anyone using this feature to develop WP sites for clients?
 * Here’s the scenario I’m contemplating. Let’s say that I’m working on three different
   WP sites for three different clients. Maybe I started the sites on my local server
   and now I’m ready to have the client take a test run. So I move the sites from
   the local server to my multisite development server. Now all three clients can
   play around with their sites before they go live.
 * When the client signs off on the site, I make the changes and upload their site
   to their domain. Is this workable? Is there a better way to do it?
 * Thanks,
    Emilio < sig link removed >
