Converting to Drupal

I am setting up a Drupal 7 multi-site (sub-directories). I was wondering how possible it was to create a site dedicated solely for shared content (News articles). It wouldn't be accessible from the web, but it would be a one-stop place for users to enter content (a specific content type) that would be reflected throughout all the subsequent multi sites.

Thoughts?

Can I initially rebuild my pure html website from scratch using Drupal 7 but from another domain? I plan to then migrate the website to it's original domain later but will I get penalized by the search engines? Also how does this affect my current rankings? That is, during and after the project completion? And finally, how successful is the migration process and which modules/themes are recommended?

Or, can someone recommend a better solution? I've read some of the other posts but can't seem to answer all my questions.

Thanks folks

I have been running a free press release site for a long time in a php script provided by article setup, though it has lot of bugs in ti and more over not much secure. Our free press release site is going more and more popular, so i want to take a few precautions for my site security and want to convert it into more secure site.

Is there anyway to convert the article setup script to Drupal with out losing any existing data, atleast database migration?

Hi,
We have a site which is integrated using Typo3 4.1 (CMS) version. We would like to migrate the content and themes (templates & CSS) to Drupal 7.2 version. Kindly guide us to achieve the process successfully.

Thanks in advance.

I have 500+ articles in a Joomla 2.5 mysqli database. I've tried the joomla import modules, tried feeds, tried importing the csv -- all with no luck. Aside from the mind-numbing alternative of hand-entering each article, is there a bullet-proof import method?
