"Today I rolled out a new Magento site and for the first time in almost 2 years of doing Magento development I had the session id appended to the url, namely: ?___SID=U This was driving me mad and I didn't want search engines to index the site with the "?___SID=U" in the URL, so I wanted to fix it asap. Generally when I have a problem, there is usually someone else in the world who has had the same issue, so I searched the web and Magento forums for an answer. I couldn't find any conclusive answers and seeing as though the Magento technical documentation is notoriously limited I had to find the solution myself."

Gone are the days when you have to setup separate E-commerce scripts to manage & run multiple online stores. Magento makes new store creation extremely easy for the store owners so that they can have as many stores as they like still maintaining one backend (admin panel). If you are new to Magento then this tutorial will require you to read the instructions very carefully. You can create multiple stores with other E-commerce software as well i.e. osCommerce, X-Cart, Zen Cart or Miva but to have multiple stores you need to add few plugins, addons and invest in hiring a full time programmer which is painful. A single Magento installation will be enough to run multiple stores having different domain names, different IP's and different Security certificate. You can optionally setup single checkout for each store as well.
