hello sir can i make this whole cluster on Wordpress post, why I am asking this is because I'm confused if we create the pillar content and its supporting content on posts we will have them at same level not in a hierarchy structure like we can do on worpress pages so having pillar and supporting content on same level does do any effect on this concept and the internal linking is 100% correct
@@NikhilYadav-hg6sw Good question. URL structure and inter-linking structure are two different things. Some get obsessed over URL structure but I'm focused on the customer experience and journey which is via internal links. Show Google how they should think about your content not through your URL structure but through how each post links to another post. That is more important. With that said, the closer a slug is to the root domain, the more important it is as well. But to me, the juice is hardly ever worth the squeeze to worry about that. Do blog posts, write lots of them, interlink them, and go to another hub.
@@jessecunninghamv hey Thankyou very much sir, such good content on your youtube and thanks again fr the reply that cleared out everything Plus i would like to request you some few more things that could really help your channel grow i guess 1. You can talk about semantic seo 2. Category pages created by wordpress can be redirected to static page for better navigation and aesthetic look or u should just use code to revamp the wordpress category page itself which one will be better 3. Frequency of posting for new domains to get out of sandbox ASAP using topical authority concept how Frequently u should post in a day in a week or in a month These are all the questions that u could really answer sir and can get great traction as more and more people will be knowing these things in the upcoming seo trends
Something to keep in mind is that you might want to add some purely info posts that have the main keyword instead of only best of or review posts within the cluster. This will give more expertise signal.
100%. Great point! None of the blog posts in my data example are affiliate or product based. It's smart to have a ratio of informational to product. Everyone's threshold is different. I like 25% product or less.
@@jessecunninghamv I read somewhere in Google's search recommendations that if you have less than 10% of review/affiliate posts than you weren't affected at all by the "reviews" update (that started rolling out yesterday) where Google would crawl the entire site likely to see if you had other credible expertise signals.
Jesse, you could also reference the fire escape plans and room layout for whichever hyatt or mariott you're researching, having a large family, that's definitely good to know and compare to where the room is, etc.
Hello I have been using your workflow tool and it is amazing. One thing, the fond coming out is real small. Is there a way to preset the size for h1, h2 h3 and the regular text. thanks
Thank you so much for this video, Jesse. Does the backlink score matter when we're qualifying these keywords? For example, at 08:57, the Zuzu's guide had a DR of 2, and only 11 backlinks, which made the keyword a great one to add to our cluster to compete. But if the DR was 2 and the backlink score was 7K for whatever reason, would that be a red flag for "chasing" that keyword?
Can you possibly do a video on how to format the pillar page... and how to make it a category as well. or point me in the right direction at least. I just want to do everything right
I’m trying to create a strategy, would you say this approach is better than creating a topical map with low kd high volume keywords around a niche from ahrefs or would this method produce better results? And can we get these kinds of results on a dr 0 website?
Hello Jesse Cunningham, I have joined your masterclass. I have been impressed with what you give away in your videos on this channel. Also, I found the coupon code in the comments and the lifetme access to the tool "quick article workflow", very nice.
Did you use any specific on-page seo tools like surferseo etc. to optimize the 18 articles for your client? or is that not really necessary for topical authority?
im asking a lot of questions but im trying to learn, would it be a good idea to get the keywords using this strategy then use a tool like keyword cupid to organize them into silos
around 14:25 you say you wouldn't link from the best hyatt resort to the reviews. is that just because they are not relevant? if in your best hyatt resort top page it actually had the hyatt centric downtown nashville directly on the top page would you then link to the page since at that point it's directly relevant?
Hey Jesse, is it better to have your WordPress pages as pillar pages or post as pillar pages for gaining topical authority. I always hear about topical authority, never really hear about where they start from. Using the Pages or Post to start the topical cluster. Thank you brother. You videos are always awesome, educational and informative. Can't wait for your next one. Take care!!
Great question! Does the slug change from a page to a post on your website? Does your blog show /blog/category/name-of-post? Or is it all after root domain? If it's all after root, then it doesn't matter IMO - otherwise you can consider a structure.
@@jessecunninghamv Thank you for your quick response. It shows /blog/category/name-of-post? and my pages just show from the root. I think I see where you are going with this. If it is outside of the root, then just use the post as pillars am I correct?
Hey Jesse just purchased your course and cannot wait to get stuck into it! If possible could you create either a video on youtube or your course on how to rank your home page and how to properly internally link your website with anchor text? Love your channel and keep providing the great value that you do! :)
Hey Pat! Welcome aboard. You have lifetime access now to the course and the Quick Article Workflow. Thank you for purchasing the course. I shot you an email.
great video, however im a little confused still Some people say that the middle of the cluster should be your pillar page, and then all the subtopics around it are your supporting content. So an example would be like "Nutrition plan" is the pillar page, and then all the subtopics would be the long tail versions of nutrition plan. But other people are saying that the middle of the cluster should be your money page, where you are doing some sort of review on products, and thats why you want it to receive all that link juice from the supporting pages. Which one is correct? They both make sense to me, but i dont understand how i should actually be creating my content. and what if i have 2 different money pages for that topic. Like one page is a course review, and the other is a product roundup page? if we use the nutrition plan example again, say you have a course or product you are selling that is the "best nutrition plan course review", but you also have a money page where you are selling "best supplements for your nutrition plan" Which one goes into the center of the cluster? is it possible to have both money pages in the cluster somehow? So just to recap my main questions: 1: Should the center of a topic cluster be a massive pillar page targeting your seed keyword, or should the center of the cluster be a money page, such as a product review? 2: and if the latter is true, what do you do if you have 2 seperate money pages on the same topic. like one product is a course review, and the other is a product roundup review? can you put them both in the cluster, and if so, how do you structure that with interlinking?
It is one of the most confusing aspects of SEO. I just did a 40 minute module diving into it in the masterclass and plan to do even more. It deserves more than what this response can give because there’s so much to it. Super valuable if you can get it right but I will say that everything we create for structural SEO is merely for us to visualize the semantic relationships between hubs. It keeps us on track and through that process it shows Google we are the authority on our given niche/keyword/etc.
@@jessecunninghamv Thanks! do you put the main one as pillar content in the yoast settings? and in the others nothing? just link them back to the main?
Ok, so I'm gonna start keeping track of your trademarked phrases: "First things first, let's look at the data." 💯 "We know this website probably has some good Scooby snacks for us." 🤣🤣
Absolutely. All of these constructs are to allow us to visual and make sense of a complicated idea. Break the idea when it makes sense logically. Expand on it.
@@jessecunninghamv That is great! I have a site for which I'm creating hubs like this: Say it's about plants, then one hub for how to water 10 different types of plants, one hub for how to harvest the same 10 plants, and a hub for how to seed the 10 different plants. However, then I of course also have to interlink the 3 plants that are the same of each hub (e.g. all articles on tomato plants would have to be linked together too). Would this structure work do you think?
I’m getting into seo and I gotta say. You are a master. Thank you Jesse
“all of a sudden”, you’re unintentionally funny! 😂 thoroughly enjoyed this. subbed!
Man, you gave me a roadmap how to write articles and make a cluster to get topical authority
Thanks!

Great idea. We could compare that idea with the data for keyword searches and see where it lands.
very nice informative video, thanks for making! Just wondering, do all articles in a cluster have to link to each other?
Around minute 14 I go into detail about that. They do link to each other in a very specific way.
Hello I have been using your workflow tool and it is amazing. One thing, the fond coming out is real small. Is there a way to preset the size for h1, h2 h3 and the regular text. thanks

do we only link to other posts or should we link to the dedicated page
Great tips, does it matter if they are Wordpress pages? or do they need to be blog posts?
Great question. The typical way is blog posts. I use pages too because sometimes I need custom styling. This data was 100% blog posts.

You can but I skip that as I have other things that take priority and don’t have enough time as it is. If you do it right you can skip it.

Is there a way to do it without a relativly expensive program like Ahrefs?
You’d have to be lucky to be as effective with free tools. Google keyword planner is your best bet outside of AHREFs
can we use this technique for multi category blog?
Absolutely. 100%.
How long are your articles in the cluster?
It depends on the competition really
Is there a way to do this without a $100/mo tool?
Google keyword planner is your best bet if you don’t want to pay.

Great question. No they were organically posted over 2 weeks-ish. Then when all were published I made sure the interlinks were solid.
