Building an online business often raises some interesting geeky questions. \u201cShould we package our intellectual property into\u00a0Software-as-a-Service<\/strong>?<\/a>\u201d \u201cShould we build one website that presents all our offers, or should we build multiple websites?\u201d<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve decided to build multiple websites because you\u2019d rather have niche websites rather than an all-purpose, one-stop website, then you might struggle with making changes to all your websites when the platform itself changes. Organizations that use Drupal technology often have this problem. Drupal 6 is already winding down and developers project that Drupal 7 won\u2019t last beyond 2020. Consequently, forward-thinking users should go ahead and migrate straight to Drupal 8. While one migration is difficult enough, imagine having to deal with several at the same time. Fortunately, there are SaaS products that can ease even something as worrisome as a Drupal 8 migration<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Does your business have enough time to market more than a single website? In other words, will you be able to give each website enough visibility to do well in Google\u2019s search engine results page? Remember, you have to keep an active social media presence for each website, keep your blog churning out content related to each website, and develop SEO practices for each website<\/a>. It\u2019s not a good idea to develop multiple websites if there isn\u2019t enough time in the day to give each website the attention it needs to attract traffic.<\/p>\n
