AEM New Page vs New Site - jaime124 - 07-19-2023

If my site structure is like below <br/><br/>
MySite (**SiteName**) <br/>
--- HomePage (**Page**) <br/>
--- ProductPage (**Page**) <br/>

Under siteadmin console, while creating site **MySite** should I use *"New Page.."* Or *"New Site.."* ? When to use which option?

**"New site"** option is used to create a site from an existing **Blueprint**. Blueprint is part of AEM's multisite manager (MSM) functionality. A blueprint is used to create multiple sites with common structure , for example **MySite** in English, French, Spanish and so on.

A Blueprint is created from an existing site. A site is a collection of pages, so you will be using **"New Page"** option for creating the site initially.

So if you don't have **"MySite"** ready as of yet, you'll be using "New page" option. Once "MySite" is ready and you want to create **copies of "MySite"** for different languages and countries to enforce a common structure, you will have to use **"New Site"** option.
