chatgpt prompts for easy copypasta: give me 30 semantically relevant, but unique topics under the main category of "insert category" give me 10 different keyword variations of "sub topic" that address a different search intent
Wow! Awesome. This boils down to 2 main prompts to make your topical map and then some possible updated instructions. I started adding a market relevancy statement to my directions to try to narrow some of the focus down since we serve only a few industries. Anyhow... another notation... I have been running side by side on ChatGPT 4 (paid account) and Google Bard. IMHO... Bard is actually far better. It's pretty amazing the difference in responses. Thank you so much for the info and lesson!
Give me 30 semantically relevant, but unique topics under the main category of "xxxx". Give me 10 different kewyord variations of "xxxx" that address a different search intent.
Matt, you are right on the spot with" its hard for newbies to make topical map", one of the reasons i beleive is everybody talks about making one, but nobody shows. Can you give us an over the shoulder look on how you make a complete map?. I want to make a complete map but there is no in depth tutorial.
@@theprohairstylist There was another YT video where he went more in depth about how to do it without chatGPT, maybe search his channel for topical authority / topical map
Hey Matt, in 2023 if you are going to build a website to achieve topical authority, what’s more important when starting out- building a topical map for your content plan or finding low KD keywords to start writing articles ? I’m starting a new website and not sure if I should be searching for low KD keywords to get some traction with google or forget low KD keywords and build a topical map. Build the map, crank out content and achieve topical authority. Summary - start new website with topical map or low KD keywords for content plan? Thanks you are the best
Go for topical map and some of your topics that you're gonna cover will be low competitive and will rank obviously and later on you'll rank on the other ones Remember that you aren't targeting to rank for every content you'll produce. Your main targeted pages will be lesser than your total content and the rest of the content is only to gain topical authority. ROI will be enough even with those being on top of the search results

I have written an article by AI like (Chat GPT, Bard). When I checked the article by "AI Content Detector". The "AI Content Detector" shows '100% AI Generated text'. Can I use the article '100% AI Generated text'?
Hey Matt quick question: does topical authority get re-evaluated with each core algorithm update? There's one in March so I'm just checking. Great video. Quite sure I hit topical authority due to your amazing guidance!
Creating large amount of post 200 plus only few of them ranks it's a waste of resources time i think few articles are needed how select these instead of everything under the umbrella
Thanks for the video, I'll definitely be trying these out. When you say the bigger you make the map, the less relevant each topic will be, are you saying that to maintain relevance you need to stick to topics that are more relevant? Sorry if it's a silly question.

Thanks for this video, Matt. For E-commerce stores, would the focus be writing all articles and content that is not a listical? Any advice on how to approach it for E-commerce would be appreciated. Thank you
Hey Matt! I was wondering if we could get a video about how to select affiliate products and programs for a niche? I know it's more of a business question than seo, but I'd still think it is just as important. Thanks, appreciate it.

Thanks, Mat, for this valuable video. I have a question that is confusing me. Can you tell me whether I need to select only those cluster topics with some Search Volume? Or can I pick any relevant cluster topic which has 0 Search Volume?
I would prioritise based on search volume but still cover the ones with lower SV as they will help build up your relevance to the cluster topic and strengthen the performance of high SV keywords
@Year Of Plenty VLOG the power of AI comes from the combination of human and AI interaction. AI cannot do everything, however using your human ability you can research into the provided topics to discover search volume data manually.
I like your content. What to do with an SEO site when everything seems to be done? What else can be done to increase traffic if the optimization has been carried out, and the positions are average?
I’m a newbie trying to build a website properly (and fast) Personally I love the topical authority strategy as I see a lot of big websites monopolising search results for topics they have no business talking about….just saying. At least this way I have a shot at getting relevant content to rank in a niche that I am passionate about
Great Vid but lets say we will generate 2k articles to cover entire topic and write articles about but how can we rank so easily if those keywords will have NO VOLUME or 80-100% keyword difficulty according to semrush or ahrefs? What's the point in that case?
@@radosawdownar5590Just make the content briefs in the place. That will decide the word count and outline of the article you're gonna write. Then just fill in the text in those headings and subheadings. Remember, you must proof read the content and add internal links and do cite to authority website. That's it. I have been doing this for my various clients as a AI content writer.
Great video. I've been browsing your channel and can't find anything related to selling an artist (helping out a comedian friend, for free, and not an SEO expert at all). For example -- I can't wrap my head around how I could utilise Topical Authority for someone that just has a site with pictures and ticket sale links. Also struggling to grasp how you get someone into an SCRB (who Google/Bing picks up seems to be quite random). Is this kind of thing something you could cover some time, please?
IMPORTANT TIP: Though topic authority is GOOD, it's better to do keyword research. If you write 100 posts with ZERO search traffic, you'll see no real traffic boost. You can take care of zero-traffic articles later if you want. But your goal is still traffic. So priority to those that bring it.
Hi Matt. I have a question for you as an experienced SEO expert that I would kindly and really love to hear your response. Here it is, "What is the future of SEO, What, in your opinion, will SEO and content writing be like in like 5, 10, 20 years, How do you explain the development of SEO in your vast 8-year experience, And finally, is it something you could advise your little brother to go into head on." My name is Joel Babu and I am a writer in kenya I have 2 1/2 years experience. You are my role model. ❤😊
Hey Matt, Love the video as always... bur I always think after watching something inspirational like this and after doing all the topical work.... where does all that content get posted? On the main website? Tier 2 website? Or which blogging sites? Do you have a list of great blogging sites to post to? Thanks Matt!!
@@patrickcunniff5627 the video was on topical authority, how would it be possible to create topical authority over multiple sites covering different aspects of the same topic when the point of topical authority is to demonstrate your authority on a topic on one website so that website is viewed as an authority on the topic? The original question was answered in the video.
@@antygod Thank you! This answer is more full to the question raised. Also, btw, you come across as stridently pedantic! Authority is not so simple as "one site" ....bots are roaming all over the internet collecting and sifting information (and thus determining authority). Basically, that's how ChatGPT works!
@@patrickcunniff5627 the point is for you to show authority by writing every post imaginable on the topic so you convince search engines you are an authority. you do that on one site, obviously. i'm a researcher, i'm paid to be pedantic.
Matt , I tried various prompts liek you mention for chatgpt to generate a topical map for my topic , the topics and keywords he listed doesn't even have traffic , and when I asked chatgpt he responded that he has no real time data like semrush and ahrefs , so is it possible for chatgpt to build a topical map for me ???
If i work with "Topical Authority", should i organize the entire website with only those specific sub niches or can i create blog posts with other sub niches? Example... 1st sub niche- "Hair Color" 2nd sub niche- "Hair Problems" can I increase the number of sub niche on a website for "Topical Authority"?
is this the best way to do it period or is the paid route better? if you were to recommend a paid tool for creating the best topical maps what would it be? given i already have keyword cupid for clustering.
@@MattDiggity I’m thinking about buying low fruits, it finds keywords within a niche that low dr websites are ranking for which are the best opportunities then clusters it for you like keyword Cupid. Have you heard of this tool
Google should be indexing your pages and it won’t matter if it’s on the home page from my understanding. You may have to manually request your page to be indexed.
You have forgotten to talk on looking for low hanging fruits or I just write ✍️ articles targeting one keyword and I don't have to care about low hanging fruits keywords 😢
tropical authority in the last two years? This has basically always been the case..... also I don't understand why everyone releases their prompts keep em to yourself if you don't want the competition
Wow, what a way to find hundreds of uninteresting topics to write about. The difference is that the ai model gives the semantics of similar topics by words, and with the hand we collect what the user really needs by volume. Why do we need a hundred articles for the sake of mythical topical authority? Is it better to make a hundred articles at once answering the question and collecting traffic
@@shilokherington It's still better to collect the keys on the merits. By the queries and their frequency, rather than by ChatGPT fiction. Perhaps the price/cost and ease of use will be if used with Ahrefs. But the best semantics is always the one that is actually queried by the user, not generated from big database of tokens
@@realzhenya I dont think that this is meant to be a silver bullet by any means and I dont think that Matt is suggesting that this should be used in isolation. It's just another tool in the toolkit. ChatGPT for idea generation + quality content covering the topic in depth + keyword analysis. Personally, I like the holistic approach so this works for me but each to their own :)
You run your content through AI detectors. The better your prompts, the better the output from ChatGPT. I get 100% human confidence scores from AI detectors because of my input and prompting.
But if you spit out 200 AI articles, no human would ever actually read these - that would be only and only the content for Google Crawling Bots / Topical Authority. If I saw such an article, I would just quit the website and never come back. I just don't understand how generating 200 artificial articles can lead to real people spending real money on your website / or clicking any affil links there.
@@EpicIceland when I say commercial page, I mean the money, pages of the main website, which the same blog is on. You can use multiple links in the blog posts to point to them but I would not use more than 2 to 3 anchor text inner links each post, first in-content link counts the most.
I don't think the method is very accurate. You could achieve much better results doing some initial analysis and research to gather data, even with helpful tools like Cognosis or AgentGPT (if you like the AI approach). Consider conducting some manual research using SEO tools or GPT4 chat plugins, even if it's just for basic information. It's crucial to have real data before diving into making semantic relations and other similar techniques. This is because the ChatGPT data is quite limited, and relying solely on it can result in creating vast amounts of useless content. In other words, the time you save by quickly drawing conclusions at the beginning is ultimately wasted when you create content that doesn't drive traffic or yield results. The research of words and the structure of the strategy is, in my opinion, the most crucial step. While creating authority websites by topics is a good approach, doing it better will lead to better outcomes.
Thanks for another great video. Can you make a follow up to this detailing how you would structure the article itself and what title, heading, sub headings would you make for example the article about: Best plant-based protein powder for fitness.
5:34 "The bigger you make your map, the less relevant each of these topics will be." Can someone please explain exactly what this means and what to do to prevent it? THX @mattDiggity
