Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks Joey!

Luckily for me, we're running this at WPEngine and using a CDN so it's going to be very well cached and as quick as possible.

I now need to get my head around exactly how I am going to organize everything.

Thanks again for all the advice!

Thanks Aaron - I hadn't really given updating each site a lot of thought or design tweaks (also licensing costs).

Keeping that in mind one large site would certainly be easier for me to manage.

Thanks!

Hello - one of my client's is expanding their business and opening new locations across the country.

I have been planning to setup up the structure as: www.clientsite.com, www.clientsite.com/location1, www.clientsite.com/location2, www.clientsite.com/location3 and so on .

Is there any downside for our SEO by making each of these location1, location2... sites their own individual Wordpress install?

The overall look of each location will be the same (and they will be using the same custom Wordpress theme), but there services at each location will be different (or have different names). I'd estimate there will be very few duplicate pages from the "main" site to each location site.

Thanks!
