The Problem: Most Businesses Guess at Content

You publish a blog post because someone said you should. You create a service page because a competitor has one. You build location pages because a YouTube video told you to.

But you never step back and ask: what does my site actually need to rank?

Most businesses guess at content. That’s why most businesses don’t rank.

A topical map eliminates the guessing. It’s a complete blueprint of every page your website needs — organized by topic clusters, mapped to specific keywords, and ordered by implementation priority.

What a topical map looks like

Here’s a sample for a plumbing company in Dallas — two clusters out of a typical 8-15.

HUB PAGE
Plumbing Services Dallas
5 SPOKES
Emergency Plumber Dallas
1,300/mo
KD 34
Drain Cleaning Dallas
880/mo
KD 28
Water Heater Repair Dallas
720/mo
KD 31
Slab Leak Detection Dallas
390/mo
KD 22
Tankless Water Heater Installation Dallas
260/mo
KD 19
HUB PAGE
Plumbing Tips Blog
3 SPOKES

2,400/mo
KD 41

1,100/mo
KD 29

KD 25

Typical output: 30-80 pages mapped across 8-15 topic clusters, depending on your industry and service area.

Frequently asked questions

Search volume and difficulty data come from the same sources agencies use (aggregated from Semrush, Ahrefs, and Google Keyword Planner data). We cross-reference multiple sources to give you the most reliable numbers available.

The system analyzes your existing pages and factors them into the map. You’ll see which existing pages need optimization, which new pages to create, and how everything should link together. The map adapts to where you are, not just where you should be.

The base price covers one primary service area. If you operate in multiple cities or regions, we can map each location’s content needs. Contact us for multi-location pricing.

No. The topical map is a standalone deliverable. You can hand it to your in-house team, a freelancer, or any other content provider. Of course, if you want us to write the pages, we can do that too.

Any local business. We have extra training data for dental, HVAC, plumbing, roofing, medical, legal, restaurant, and 20+ other verticals, but the methodology works for any service-based or location-based business.

Ready to get these pages written?

Once you have your topical map, the next step is building the pages. Our content team can write them at scale — as low as $69/page when you order 25+.

A typical topical map reveals 30-50 pages your site needs. At volume pricing, that’s $2,070-$3,450 for a complete content library built from a proven strategy.
