What problem does it solve? Planning a website's structure is hard: pages get buried, URLs become inconsistent, and users can't find what they need. This Skill helps you design a clear information architecture — page hierarchy, navigation, URL patterns, and internal linking — before you build or restructure, so the site works for both users and search engines. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Page Hierarchy Design: Produces ASCII tree sitemaps and Mermaid visual sitemaps with navigation zones, following the 3-click rule and flat-vs-deep guidance. - URL & Navigation Specs: Generates URL maps with consistent patterns, header/footer navigation specs, and breadcrumb structures aligned to the URL hierarchy. - Internal Linking Plans: Builds hub-and-spoke linking models, orphan page audits, and cross-section link recommendations. - Use Case: You're restructuring a local marketplace site. Ask for a full architecture plan and receive a page tree, Mermaid sitemap, URL map table, navigation spec, and internal linking plan tailored to your audiences and goals. ## Quick Start Plan the site architecture for my local marketplace website, including the page hierarchy, URL structure, navigation, and internal linking plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan a website page hierarchy?▼

Start by identifying your site type, top business goals, and most important pages, then organize pages into levels where key content is reachable within 3 clicks from the homepage. Output the result as an ASCII tree or Mermaid diagram showing each page with its URL.

What is the best URL structure for SEO?▼

Use short, lowercase, hyphenated URLs that mirror the site hierarchy, such as /features/analytics or /blog/post-title. Avoid dates, IDs, query parameters, and deep nesting, and always set up 301 redirects when changing existing URLs.

How many items should a website header navigation have?▼

Keep the primary header navigation to 4-7 items to avoid decision paralysis, with the logo on the left linking home and a CTA button rightmost. Group remaining links into footer columns and dropdown menus.

What is a hub-and-spoke internal linking model?▼

A hub-and-spoke model organizes content around a comprehensive hub page that links to related spoke pages, with each spoke linking back to the hub. This concentrates internal link equity on important pages and clarifies topical relationships for search engines.

When should I use Mermaid versus ASCII for a sitemap?▼

Use ASCII trees for quick drafts, text-only contexts, and simple structures. Use Mermaid graph TD diagrams for visual presentations, complex relationships, or when you need to show navigation zones like header and footer groupings.

Does this cover XML sitemaps for search engines?▼

No, XML sitemaps are a technical SEO concern handled separately. This Skill focuses on information architecture: page hierarchy, navigation, URL patterns, breadcrumbs, and internal linking strategy.
