Topical Authority: Why One Blog Post Is Not Enough


What Is Topical Authority?

Google's measure of how comprehensive your coverage is on a subject. 50 articles > 1 article.

Topic Cluster Model

Hub-and-spoke structure. Pillar page is hub. Supporting articles are spokes. Every spoke links to hub.

Building Authority

  • Map complete topic landscape
  • Identify content gaps
  • Create comprehensive sub-topic content
  • Interlink strategically
  • Update regularly
