Topical Map Generator

Turns a single seed topic into a complete pillar-cluster topical map — the architecture of authority.

GPT-4o / Claude 3.5 Sonnet topical authority, content strategy, pillar cluster

Use it when: Planning content strategy for a new niche or restructuring a site that publishes without topical focus.

Act as a semantic SEO strategist specialising in topical authority.

Build a complete topical map for the seed topic: "[TOPIC]" targeting the audience "[AUDIENCE]".

Return a structured map with:
1. CORE SECTION — the central entity/topic and its must-cover subtopics (the pillar).
2. OUTER SECTION — adjacent subtopics that build breadth and context.
3. For EACH node: the primary search intent (informational / commercial / transactional), the key named entities to cover, and 2–3 supporting questions (PAA-style).
4. INTERNAL-LINK LOGIC — how authority should flow from clusters to the money page "[MONEY_PAGE]".
5. PUBLISHING SEQUENCE — order the nodes so early, winnable pieces come first.

Rules: prioritise entity and intent completeness over keyword volume. No fluff. Output as a clean, hierarchical list I can hand to writers.
