It can be an excellent technique for tackling smaller websites, even those that you might not think could ever be done without multiple pages. There are tons of great reasons for using a single page site, from ease of maintenance to reduced bandwidth needs.

Read on for more information on the benefits, when (and when not) to use them, and some best practices you should follow.
