  • Jim Munro: Hi Julio, I'm not an expert but this one is straightforward.

    Googlebot doesn't care about the source code you use to create your site so you can have any number of instances of WP on a single domain but you only need one sitemap and one robots.txt.

    You do not need to report the new blog on Google Search Console. It is still the same site. There will be no conflict.
  • Tony “Tiggerito” McCreath: You can submit a sitemap per blog as well. So you can see how each one is being indexed.
  • Julio Marquez: Thank you Tony, seems ago , may if there is any additional information to follow,waiting for more comments , thank u ;
