SeoSamba is the only distributed marketing architecture that allows businesses to build, market and optimize websites for top organic search performances from the cloud.

Scenario #1: You’re already using Wordpress to power your websites
Why go through the trouble of migration?
It might not sound like it to you at this stage, but going from WordPress to WordPress MultiSite is a full scale migration. In addition to the complexity, costs, time and risks associated with a migration from WordPress to WordPress Multisite, WordPress Multisite is also hampered by limitations includgoing fing privacy, user access issues, and a lack of flexibility when it comes to moving sites in and out from the network.
Common Wordpress MultiSite issues include
- Wordpress hosting companies lack Multisite expertise
- Migrating entire WPMS network is hard and costly
- True WP Multisite experts are rare and expensive

Even if you can hire talent with the technical competencies required to manage this project, when it comes to building a sites network, WordPress Multisite is nothing else than a "single box" solution that is unable to help multi-locations or multi-sites businesses perform in any kind of enhanced capacity, except from a system and software administration stand-point.
