Another question i have is should i just create my blog posts around low kd high volume focus keywords and interlink them all in creating my topical map or would this not work should i instead find the main sub topics of the niche and create my posts accordingly to this? If i were to use answer the public to find the main sub topics of my niche should i do keyword research for those sub topics to find low kd high volume keyword variations
Hi. If my main kwd si laptop amd create 2 sub topics, like laptops gaming and laptops cheap, these two sub topics should be in the same level. I mean the laptop is a page, laptop gaming and laptop heap should be a category and for each category to have also other articles related? Can i link internally from an asrticol from laptop gaming to another article from vatefory laptop cheap? Thanks!
@@satishgaire I've got a basic question about linking blog posts. Let's say we have a main topic, like "Apples," and under that we have smaller topics, like "Green Apples," "Red Apples," and "Yellow Apples." When writing about these smaller topics, do all the posts have to link back to the main "Apples" topic? Or can they just link to each other? And how does this affect the main "Apples" topic?
Thank you for this Satish! Very thorough. I have one question though. I’ve been told that you’re supposed to try to rank for lower keyword difficulty keywords as a new site owner. So in the example of “Laptops”, would it be better to start with a long tail keyword that’s easier to rank for?
What you are talking about is "Avalanche Method" ( Google it). It will work, however if setup the Topical Authority structure and start to work on low end keywords, not only will you rank for those smaller keywords, which will overtime build up and let SE to level you up, but also signal them that you are an authority in that topic. This will earn you snippet traffic as well.
Hi, I'm going to launch my personal website to promote my services. Is it okay to add all my services : SEO, WordPress, Shopify, social media management ? Or it is better to focus only on one service? (From SEO perspective and topical authority)
Do we need to create pages for all or articles for some and link to pages? Am I getting right about building topical map, like first we need to find our niche or topic, then create categories under it and now do wee need to create sub categories or articles for connecting to the categories? Please help me to clear my doubts.
Hi Eric, It won't let me post the notion URL here for some reason. If you google Topical map and go to images, you can find the images i used on the examples.
Both. Think of it like a TREE Branches. Main Topics link to sub topics, and those sub topics will also refer to main topics (main keywords) and those sub topics should also have sub-sub topic, which will link to the sub topic.
@@satishgaire I understand that the blog posts should be connected like tree branches starting from the pillar post and going down but do they also link to the pages which are not blog posts
They are very similar in few things. Silos are traditionally focused on STRUCTURE and Page Connections. However, with Topical Authority, we focus more on the Content quality, citation, and actual organization of content which will be a LONG TERM thing. Implement both.
Either I am not paying attention or you are mixing apples and oranges. I thought the point of these subtopic pages was to link back to the main page not necessarily use the same keyword we are trying to rank the main page for. But your example with the site operator you are suggesting that what is important is for the subtopic page to use the keyword we want the main page to rank for. This is confusing.
Nice video :) But can I just create a new category in WordPress? Use that category name in AskThePublic and post all articles under that new category? Then just keep posting long-tail keywords?
Like, you want to make a category in WP and post each of those questions from "AskThePublic" as one post per question? I don't recommend it. Do this instead, Make a list of those 5-10 questions and answer them at the end of the article like "FAQ" Google has made it clear that, it prefers 1 article with all the information and sub information vs 50 Pages with 50 long-tail keywords. Does that answer your question?
@@MattiasJonsson-op7dn Yes! I forgot to mention few things on this video. 1. Citation Cite whatever you say on the article to another bigger better authority than you. Don't go overboard with it. Just 2-3 per article to show that your content is backed! 2. Numerical Content Topical SEO performs really well if the content is a LIST. 3. Table of contents Add Table of content after intro pragraph to get featured on snippets. I am planning on doing another video on Schematic SEO and i will include those things there. Good luck! lmk if you have other questions!
@@satishgaireI thought you said in the video you want to be creating separate articles, and not placing them all in 1 article? How do you know when you create a separate article vs adding the topic to your main post?
Yes. I realized that after publishing the video. Working on Second video for Topical Authority based on questions on comments, will try to include it there. Thanks for watching!
Great video.. Sadly, i could not watch all the way to the end because I got fed up with how many times you said "so" :( I simply had to stop watching... :))

Sir Thank you so much...❤❤❤
You have clarified the concept of topical authority for me today and also provided the strategy.
One of the most detail and example of topic map and topic cluster. If there's a review button I will give a 5 stars. Thank you Satish.

Hi,
I'm going to launch my personal website to promote my services.
Is it okay to add all my services : SEO, WordPress, Shopify, social media management ? Or it is better to focus only on one service? (From SEO perspective and topical authority)
Do we need to create pages for all or articles for some and link to pages? Am I getting right about building topical map, like first we need to find our niche or topic, then create categories under it and now do wee need to create sub categories or articles for connecting to the categories? Please help me to clear my doubts.
Yes.
You have main topic, then subtopics then subtopics need to somehow link back to the MAIN topic page that you are trying to rank.
Hey, thanks. Is it okay to interlink subtopics? Or subtopics should only link up to the main topic?
You can interlink subtopics but makes sure all those subtopics have a link back to the MAIN Topic PAGE ( Money Page).
@@satishgaire Got it, thanks man.
HI Satsih, great content! But how to use the SEO Minion tool?
I will have to make another tutorial on that. It's an easy chrome extention i use to avoid doing busy work while doing research.
Hi Satish, thank you so much for making this video! Do you happen to have a link to copy your Notion template?
Hi Eric, It won't let me post the notion URL here for some reason. If you google Topical map and go to images, you can find the images i used on the examples.
Nice breakdown, thanks for putting this out. How do you know how many sub-topic pages for each topic to get that topical authority status?
It just depends, the more the better. I go usually 3-4 subtopic down and that has proven to be helpful!
is the main goal to link back to each post or just the pages or both
Both. Think of it like a TREE Branches. Main Topics link to sub topics, and those sub topics will also refer to main topics (main keywords) and those sub topics should also have sub-sub topic, which will link to the sub topic.
@@satishgaire I understand that the blog posts should be connected like tree branches starting from the pillar post and going down but do they also link to the pages which are not blog posts
So what is the difference between silos and topical Authority ??
They are very similar in few things. Silos are traditionally focused on STRUCTURE and Page Connections. However, with Topical Authority, we focus more on the Content quality, citation, and actual organization of content which will be a LONG TERM thing. Implement both.
Really helpful video . Are you from nepal or nepali?
Yes
Hi Satish, are you originally from Maharashtra?
No, but everyone asks me that. Is it because of my last name?
@@satishgaire yes ... maybe your parents are from MH, india.
Either I am not paying attention or you are mixing apples and oranges. I thought the point of these subtopic pages was to link back to the main page not necessarily use the same keyword we are trying to rank the main page for. But your example with the site operator you are suggesting that what is important is for the subtopic page to use the keyword we want the main page to rank for. This is confusing.

@@satishgaire Aha ok! So I could keep writing my articles as usual and get in questions from ask the public that fits the article? :)
Thanks!
@@MattiasJonsson-op7dn Yes!
I forgot to mention few things on this video.
1. Citation
Cite whatever you say on the article to another bigger better authority than you. Don't go overboard with it. Just 2-3 per article to show that your content is backed!
2. Numerical Content
Topical SEO performs really well if the content is a LIST.
3. Table of contents
Add Table of content after intro pragraph to get featured on snippets.
I am planning on doing another video on Schematic SEO and i will include those things there.
Good luck! lmk if you have other questions!
