Can I have multiple websites in one AWS Elastic Beanstalk Application?

I'm very confused about Elastic Beanstalk Application

I currently host all my websites in a windows server iis based, elastic ip server.

it is a medium ec2 instance so I pay quite a bit.

I was considering migrating it to Elastic Beanstalk Application instead of using my current one.

after creating one Elastic Beanstalk Application I notice it creates a t1.micro ec2 instance and Amazon say they scale under demand, which is fine.

my question is about how many Elastic Beanstalk Application applications I need to have?

can I have all my 30 websites under 1 Elastic Beanstalk Application?

if I have to create an Elastic Beanstalk Application(which is a t1.micro) for each website I will spend over $400.00 month

please, clarify

thanks

With IIS, the option of deploying multiple apps is not available. Please refer to the following stackoverflow discussion Deploy multiple applications to a single EC2 instance using AWS Elastic Beanstalk

This feature is only available for java applications. You can bundle multple WAR files into one ZIP file for deployment.

Here is aws documentation for the feature release. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2015/06/aws-elastic-beanstalk-supports-multiple-war-files-and-m4-instances/
