Hello,

We’re looking for advice on restructuring our blog content. Here’s our current situation and the problem we’re trying to solve:

##### Current Setup

- **Number of Blog Posts** : ~450
- **Number of Blogs** : 5
- **Tagging System** : Tags are shared across all blogs, but only show posts within the specific blog they’re tagged in.

##### Goals

- Consolidate all content under one blog.
- Enable users to click a tag and see every post with that tag across all content.
- Present content with primary categories and secondary tags without using multiple blogs.

##### Considered Approaches

1. **HubDB** :

2. **Options We Are Considering** :

**Option 1** : Use Tags as Categories

- **Implementation** : Assign each post a primary tag (former individual blogs) as a category and use secondary tags for additional categorization.
- **Visual Difference** : Style primary tags (categories) and secondary tags differently, but they function the same way.

**Option 2** : Follow Owl Labs’ Approach

- **Reference** : Owl Labs appears to have a single blog with primary and secondary tags (they call primary tags “topics”).
- **Example URL** : [Owl Labs Blog](https://resources.owllabs.com/blog/topic/distributed-teams)
- **Query** : Unsure how they get “topic” in their URLs as HubSpot typically uses “tag”.  
[Owl Labs Blog | Supporting remote work and stellar video conferencing. | Distributed Teams](https://resources.owllabs.com/blog/topic/distributed-teams)

##### **Option 3** : Use Topic/Pillar Pages

Again, use a single blog and assign posts to a Topic and also use tags as per usual. Although, this seems like this might run against the way they were intended to be used. Could it work though?

##### Questions

- Which approach (Option 1, 2 or 3) is better for our goals?
- Are we complicating things by trying to consolidate into a single blog?
- Our content writers prefer a single blog to avoid siloing content that spans multiple topics.

Thank you for your time and input.
