Full Prompt
Act as a senior SEO architect and content strategist. Build a comprehensive, actionable keyword map for the website or niche "[WEBSITE/NICHE]". This keyword map will serve as the complete content strategy foundation.

CONTEXT:
• Website/Niche: [WEBSITE/NICHE]
• Domain authority / site age (approximate): [e.g. New site / DA 20 / DA 50+]
• Primary business goal: [e.g. lead generation, ecommerce sales, SaaS signups, ad revenue]
• Geography: [e.g. Global English / UK / US / India]

COMPLETE KEYWORD MAP:

CLUSTER 1 — PILLAR PAGES (Head Terms)
Your 3–5 most important, broadest topic pages that represent the core subjects of the site.
For each pillar:
| Pillar Keyword | Est. Monthly Volume | Difficulty | Search Intent | Recommended URL slug | Content Format |

CLUSTER 2 — SUPPORTING CLUSTER PAGES
For each pillar, identify 4–6 supporting sub-topic pages that cover specific aspects in depth and link back to the pillar.
Format per entry: Pillar it belongs to → Supporting keyword | Intent | Recommended format | Internal link anchor text back to pillar

CLUSTER 3 — LONG-TAIL BLOG CONTENT (15–20 articles)
Informational content targeting specific questions and long-tail queries — drives awareness traffic and builds topical authority.
| Blog Title | Target Keyword | Search Intent | Est. Volume | Difficulty | Cluster It Belongs To |

CLUSTER 4 — COMPARISON & ALTERNATIVE KEYWORDS
High-intent searchers comparing options:
• "[Product] vs [Competitor]" pages
• "Best [Category] for [Use Case]" pages
• "Alternatives to [Tool/Brand]" pages
List 6–8 of these with: target keyword | intent | recommended page approach | priority level

CLUSTER 5 — QUESTION & PAA KEYWORDS (People Also Ask)
Target featured snippet opportunities:
• 8–10 question keywords that appear in Google's PAA boxes for this niche
• For each: recommend content format (FAQ section, short-answer article, table) and whether to add it to an existing page or build a new one

CLUSTER 6 — TRANSACTIONAL / COMMERCIAL KEYWORDS
Keywords with clear buying intent:
| Keyword | Intent Stage | CTA on Page | Priority |
Mark each as: Buy Now / Compare / Get Quote / Start Trial / Download

INTERNAL LINKING MAP:
Describe the full linking hierarchy — which pillar pages link to which clusters, which blog posts link back to which pillar, and which pages should interlink laterally. Show the topical authority flow.

PUBLISHING PRIORITY ORDER:
Rank the top 12 pages to build first — based on the fastest path to traffic for a site at this authority level. Explain the prioritisation logic clearly.

QUICK WIN OPPORTUNITIES:
Identify 3 keywords where this site could realistically rank within 60–90 days due to low competition. For each: explain why it's a quick win and describe exactly what content to create.

TOPICAL AUTHORITY ASSESSMENT:
Once all clusters are built, describe what the site's topical authority coverage would look like to Google. Are there gaps that would undermine the overall strategy? What is missing that would complete the hub?
