If i want to create Wordpress websites for clients, do I have to install Wordpress for each new Wordpress site I make?
(very new to .org wordpress)

You could look at the multi-site option, which would allow you to have multiple wordpress sites running on one set of core files, but even I don't go for that option. I just reinstall WP into a new sub-directory for each site I work on.

As far as I am aware yes you need to have a fresh Wordpress install for each site you make.
