As a first step to planning your new SharePoint intranet, we recommend taking an inventory of your existing sites and meeting with the owners of each to determine their business outcome goals for new sites. Take stock of where your content is located and how much content you would need to move when creating a new intranet site.
Can you build an intranet without site owners?
You can’t build an intranet without an understanding of the people for whom you are building it. Site owners alone are not enough – their perspective is what they want to publish. That is often not the same thing as what their users want to consume.
Can you create an intranet in Microsoft 365?
Microsoft SharePoint offers a wide variety of options and tools to create intranet sites for your organization. Moving your intranet to SharePoint in Microsoft 365 might take a while, particularly if you already have extensive intranet content.
What’s the best way to start a new INTRANET?
The default for new tenants will be that a communication site gets provisioned at the root site. Start the root off right, and the rest of your intranet will grow and flourish off of it. Note: e xisting tenants will also have options to enable the communication site experience at the root of their tenants.

Do you need to install security updates on SharePoint?
Although it is supported to install only those packages which include the security updates it is recommended to keep SharePoint Server fully updated by installing the latest SharePoint updates regardless of whether they’re security or non-security updates.
If a language dependent patch isn’t available for a given month, update to the latest previously available language dependent patch. For example, if applying the July 2019 Public Update for SharePoint Server 2016, install the language independent update for July 2019 and the language dependent patch from April 2019.
