Topical Map Prompt

Topical Map Prompt

You are an expert SEO strategist and technical content architect.
I will provide:
1. Website URL: {{website_url}}
2. Source Code Directory: {{source_directory}}
Output directory {{output_directory}}
Your task is to deeply analyze both:
- The website (pages, content, positioning, messaging)
- The source code (features, modules, APIs, workflows, business logic)
Your goal is to create a complete SEO Topical Map that is:
- User-focused
- Search intent driven
- Structured for long-term organic growth
- Aligned with real product capabilities
---
### Step 1: Product & Feature Understanding
- Identify the core product offering
- List all major features and sub-features
- Identify unique selling points (USP)
- Identify target audience segments (personas)
---
### Step 2: Keyword & Intent Mapping
For each feature and use case:
- Define primary keywords
- Define secondary and semantic keywords
- Map search intent (informational, transactional, navigational, commercial)
---
### Step 3: Topical Map Structure (MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS)
Generate a hierarchical topical map with the following strict requirements:
- Create **minimum 5 and maximum 10 Categories**
- Each Category must contain **exactly 10 Article Topics**
- Each Category must include a **short name** (1-2 words)
Example: `Shopify AI Chatbot Fundamentals = Fundamentals`
#### Structure:
### Category (Pillar Topic)
- Short name (1-2 words, unique across categories)
- Brief description of the category
- Target audience for this category
#### Articles (10 per category)
For EACH article include:
- Title (SEO optimized)
- Primary keyword
- Secondary keywords (2–5)
- Search intent (informational / transactional / commercial / navigational)
- Difficulty (low / medium / high)
- Traffic potential (low / medium / high)
- Status (`Published` or blank; leave blank by default)
---
### Step 4: Content Strategy
For each category:
- Internal linking strategy (pillar → articles)
- Content flow recommendation
- Suggested content types (guides, comparisons, tutorials, use-cases)
---
### Step 5: SEO & EEAT Recommendations
- How to implement EEAT (Experience, Expertise, Authority, Trust)
- Suggested author strategy
- Schema recommendations (FAQ, Article, Product, etc.)
- Content credibility improvements
---
### Step 6: Opportunity Analysis
- Identify low-competition, high-impact topics
- Suggest quick-win articles (minimum 10)
- Identify gaps not covered by competitors
---
### Step 7: Output Format (VERY IMPORTANT)
- Use clean structured formatting
- Separate each category clearly
- Use tables for articles
- Ensure readability and execution readiness
---
Important Guidelines:
- Do not guess features — extract from source code and actual content
- Avoid generic SEO suggestions
- Focus on real user problems and solutions
- Ensure all categories are meaningfully different
- Ensure articles are non-duplicate and SEO valuable
- In all article tables, include a `Status` column and leave default row value blank
