🗂️ Overview: How Enterprise Handles Multiple Websites

On the Search Atlas Enterprise plan, each website you manage must have its own dedicated project. Projects are the top-level containers that house everything related to a single website — including its knowledge graph, OTTO slots, keyword tracking, and site audit data. There is a strict one-to-one relationship: one website = one project. You cannot combine multiple websites under a single project.

📁 What Is a Project?

A project in Search Atlas is a workspace tied to a single root domain (for example, yourbrand.com). When you create a project, you configure it around one website and all tools within that project operate on that domain's data exclusively. Projects keep your websites cleanly separated so that data, reports, and automations never mix between domains.

• Each project has its own settings, including target country, language, and tracked keywords.
• Users and team members can be granted access at the project level, giving you granular permission control across clients or business units.
• Reporting and analytics are scoped per project, so you always see clean, domain-specific insights.

🧠 Knowledge Graphs: One Per Project

Every project on the Enterprise plan comes with its own knowledge graph. The knowledge graph is Search Atlas's AI-powered topical map of your website — it analyses your existing content, identifies topic clusters, and surfaces content gaps and opportunities. Because the knowledge graph is built from a single domain's content and structure, it must remain isolated per project.

• Each website gets a separate knowledge graph that reflects only that domain's topical authority and content landscape.
• Knowledge graphs are not shared between projects. Running OTTO or content planning on one project will never affect the knowledge graph of another.
• As you publish new content or make site changes, the knowledge graph for that specific project updates to reflect your growing topical coverage.

This isolation is intentional — it ensures that the AI recommendations and content strategies generated for one website are always accurate and relevant to that domain alone.

🤖 OTTO Slots: Allocated Per Project

OTTO is Search Atlas's OTTO SEO automation agent. OTTO slots determine how many websites can have OTTO actively running optimisations at the same time. On the Enterprise plan, OTTO slots are allocated at the account level and then assigned individually to each project.

• Each website (project) that you want OTTO to manage requires one dedicated OTTO slot.
• If your Enterprise plan includes, for example, five OTTO slots, you can have OTTO actively running on up to five separate projects simultaneously.
• You can reassign OTTO slots between projects at any time — for example, deactivating OTTO on one project to free up a slot for a different website.
• Projects without an assigned OTTO slot retain all their data and settings but will not receive automated on-page optimisations until a slot is assigned.

When planning your Enterprise rollout, count the number of websites you want OTTO to actively manage and ensure your plan includes a matching number of OTTO slots. Speak with your account manager before upgrading if you are unsure how many slots your use case requires.

🚀 Setting Up Multiple Websites on Enterprise

1. Upgrade to Enterprise — confirm your plan tier and the number of projects and OTTO slots included with your account manager or via the billing section of your dashboard.
2. Create a new project for each website — from the Home page ("Hi, CSM. What will we get done today?"), click the Create Project button. Enter the root domain for that website and complete the setup wizard.
3. Let the knowledge graph build — after a project is created, Search Atlas will crawl the domain and populate the knowledge graph automatically. This typically completes within a few hours depending on site size.
4. Assign an OTTO slot — once the knowledge graph is ready, navigate to OTTO SEO → All Sites (SEO Automation) and activate OTTO by assigning one of your available slots.
5. Repeat for each website — follow the same steps for every additional domain you are managing under your Enterprise account.

📐 Quick Reference: Enterprise Architecture at a Glance

• 1 website → 1 project (mandatory, no exceptions)
• 1 project → 1 knowledge graph (built and maintained automatically)
• 1 active OTTO website → 1 OTTO slot (slots are account-level and assignable)
• Projects are independent — data, graphs, and automations do not cross between them
• Team members and permissions are configurable per project

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I view all my websites in one dashboard? Yes — the project selector in the top of the left sidebar lets you switch between projects instantly. A consolidated multi-project overview is available depending on your Enterprise tier.
• What happens to my knowledge graph if I add a subdomain? Subdomains are treated as separate entities. If you want to track a subdomain independently, create a separate project for it and it will receive its own knowledge graph.
• Can I transfer a knowledge graph between projects? No — knowledge graphs are domain-specific and cannot be moved or merged. Each project builds its own from scratch based on the assigned domain.
• Do unused OTTO slots expire? No — unassigned OTTO slots remain available within your account for as long as your Enterprise plan is active.
