Pillar Pages

Pillar pages are long content pieces that act as the main hub for Topic Clusters strategy. These pages cover broad topics in detail and link to more specific subtopic content to help users find what they need.

The setup uses smart Internal Links to connect the pillar page to cluster content. Cluster pages link back to keep Link Equity flowing through the topic group, which needs good Content Planning to get the right Content Depth.

Good pillar pages improve Site Structure by making clear content paths that search engines can crawl easily. They work best as part of a bigger Content Strategy that matches what users want with the right content depth.

How This SEO Knowledge Base Works

The pages in this section are structured as an interconnected knowledge graph, designed to be both comprehensive and easy to navigate:

  • Self-contained - Each page fully explains its concept, with links to background reading
  • Interconnected - Internal links show you how concepts relate and naturally connect
  • Layered depth - Start with broad overviews or dive straight into specific topics
  • Visual navigation - The linkmap above shows how the SEO structure fits together
  • Information-dense - No fluff or filler, just the information you need in as few words as possible

The goal is reference content that respects your time without sacrificing depth.
