SEO-AEO Content Cluster

Overview

Maps out a complete topical authority structure around a pillar keyword. Produces a pillar page definition, 8–15 cluster articles sorted into Priority 1/2/3 tiers, a content type for each, an internal link map, and a content gap analysis identifying AEO opportunities competitors are missing.

Part of the SEO-AEO Engine.

When to Use This Skill

• Use when building topical authority around a new subject
• Use when you need to know what to write next to support a pillar page
• Use when planning a content calendar for a niche
• Use when you want to identify AEO content gaps competitors are missing

How It Works

Step 1: Define the Pillar Page

Set the primary keyword, target audience, and word count target (2500–4000 words) for the pillar page that anchors the cluster.

Step 2: Generate Cluster Articles

Produce 8–15 subtopics sorted into three priority tiers:

• Priority 1 — High volume, clear intent. Write these first.
• Priority 2 — Medium volume, long-tail focus. Write second.
• Priority 3 — Low volume, high conversion intent. Write last.

Assign each article a unique keyword, content type, search intent, and link map.

Step 3: Build Internal Link Map

Every cluster article must link back to the pillar page. No orphan articles. Show the full tree of relationships.
