Question: From a SEO point of view, which is better - one big site or several smaller? Why? Check all true answers.

Answers:
a) If you have enough content in the same niche it is better to have it in one big site because first, this way the site is easier to maintain and the great number of pages is good for ranking high in search results.
b) One big site is better because search engines favor big and established sites more than smaller startups.
c) When you have many small sites, each dedicated to a different topic, you can link them heavily and this will boost your ratings.
d) Many small sites allow to focus on specific niches, therefore compete for different keywords.
e) When you have many small sites with a similar theme, you can exchange a couple of links between them.

Right Answer is A /d

Explanation: b., and c. are wrong. b. is wrong, because although the Age of Domain matters, search engines do not favor older and established sites with no recently updated content. c. is wrong because linking them heavily might lead to trouble, rather than boosting the search results. And when the sites have different themes, the value of backlinks is not that high. e. is correct because when the sites have a similar theme and you don't link them heavily, this is good for SEO. a. is true, when the content is in the same niche. When the sites are not in the same niche (d.), it is better to have the content separated and have a different domain (preferably with the keywords in it) for different niches.
