Multiple Domains Pointing to Single WordPress Instance

Scenario

Let's say that you want to point multiple domain names to the same WordPress instance. Normally, if you do this, WordPress will siimply redirect to the home URL in the database as configured in WP Admin > Settings > General > Site Address (URL).

Why Would You Want To Do This?

There may be a case where you want multiple domains pointing to the same site - perhaps for referral tracking, to migrate an old domain, to allow the use of short URL (for example, my-really-long-domain.com and shrturl.co), etc without using a redirect.

These instructions are for Debian-based distributions, but they are similar for RPM-based distros.

It is best to do multiple tests and average the results, especially on VPS which may be affected by peek traffic.
