What problem does it solve? Internal linking is often improvised, leading to orphan pages, keyword cannibalization between local and global pages, diluted PageRank, and doorway-page penalties. This Skill provides a structured methodology for designing and auditing internal link architecture. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Pillar/Cluster Link Model: Defines how pillar pages link down to cluster pages, cluster pages link up, and siblings cross-link contextually. - Local vs Global Architecture: Structures URL hierarchies (global pillar, regional hub, local page) with geo-specific anchors and anti-cannibalization keyword rules. - Link Audits: Detects orphan pages, enforces click depth of 3 or fewer from the homepage, flags pages concentrating over 10% of internal links, and finds broken internal links. - Use Case: A multi-city service business needs local landing pages without triggering near-duplicate suppression; the Skill defines the doorway-page quality bar (differentiation on 3-4 dimensions) and the link mesh connecting pillars, hubs, and city pages. ## Quick Start Audit my site's internal linking structure and suggest a pillar/cluster architecture for my service pages.
