Google rewards sites that own a topic. Not sites that dabble in it.

Most sites publish content randomly and wonder why nothing ranks. Topical mapping fixes the root cause.

01

Surface the pages that should be making you money

I identify the money pages on your site that are ranking too low to drive real traffic. These are pages with real commercial intent that just need the right supporting content around them to move up in search results.

02

Build topical authority Google actually recognizes

I organize related articles into structured content silos that support your main pages and cover every relevant subtopic in your niche. The result is a site Google treats as an authoritative resource, not a collection of unrelated posts.

03

Turn internal links into a PageRank engine

I plan how every article in a silo links to every other, distributing link equity across the site strategically. This isn’t just good UX. It’s one of the most underused levers in SEO, and it costs nothing extra to implement.

Three steps from zero to a complete content architecture.

Every deliverable I send is actionable from day one. No vague strategy documents, just a clear map of what to build and in what order. It’s the same way I structure my own site.

1

Identify and analyze your money pages

I start by finding the pages on your site that have the highest commercial value but aren’t ranking where they should be. These aren’t necessarily losing traffic, they’re just sitting at position 8 or 12 when they should be in the top 3. I map out exactly where each page stands and what it would take to move it up.

2

Brainstorm and research supporting content

For each money page, I identify the supporting articles that should exist around it. Each one gets keyword research pulled from live DataForSEO search data, a target search volume, and a brief outline. By the end of this step you have a complete content roadmap: every article your site needs, in priority order, with the keywords already mapped.

3

Build the silo and interlinking map

The final deliverable is the silo structure itself: which articles link to which, how anchor text should be used, and how PageRank flows through the cluster toward your money page. Hand it straight to your team to execute, use it as the brief for your writers, or have me build the content on top of it through my writing and AI content services.

Pick the scope that matches your site.

Every package includes keyword research, article outlines, and an internal linking strategy. Pricing is scoped to your site and confirmed before any work begins. No recurring fees.

Outsourcing high quality SEO content is difficult as most writers don’t truly understand SEO. Chris is different. He’s been in the SEO industry since 2010 and his content is evidence of that. Highly recommend.

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What is topical mapping?

Topical mapping is the process of organizing website content into structured clusters around specific themes. Each cluster has a central money page supported by related articles that cover every relevant subtopic. The goal is to signal to Google that your site is a comprehensive authority on the topic, which leads to better rankings across the whole cluster.

How does topical mapping improve SEO?

When Google sees a site that covers a topic thoroughly and links all the related content together intelligently, it assigns higher topical authority to that site. This lifts rankings not just for the main page but for every article in the cluster. It’s one of the most effective long-term SEO strategies available.

What is a content silo?

A content silo is a group of interlinked pages organized around a single topic. The silo has one main page (usually a commercial or pillar page) and several supporting articles that cover related subtopics. All articles in the silo link to each other and back to the main page, concentrating PageRank where it matters most.

How do you identify which money pages to prioritize?

I look for pages that have clear commercial intent, meaning they drive leads, sales, or signups, but are ranking in positions 5 to 20 where traffic is thin. These pages usually have strong potential but lack the supporting content structure to convince Google they deserve a top-3 position.

Do you write the content too?

Topical mapping is a standalone deliverable. You get the keyword research, outlines, and linking strategy. If you want the content written as well, my content writing and AI content writing services cover that. Many clients use the topical map as the brief for their in-house team, then hand the heavier pages to me.

How often should the topical map be updated?

Once the initial silo structure is built and the content is published, you typically don’t need to revisit it for 6 to 12 months. Updates make sense when you enter a new topic area, when a money page loses significant traffic, or when competitors have clearly expanded their coverage in a cluster you’re targeting.

Can topical mapping help with AI search and GEO?

Yes. AI systems like ChatGPT and Perplexity preferentially cite content from sites that demonstrate comprehensive coverage of a topic. A well-structured topical map doesn’t just help Google rankings, it positions your site as a credible source that AI systems want to reference when answering questions in your niche.

What do I need to provide to get started?

Just your website URL and a brief description of your business and target audience. I handle the research, analysis, and planning from there. If you have specific pages you already know are underperforming, you can flag those and I’ll prioritize them.

Stop publishing into the void. Start building a site Google actually trusts.
