How-To Site Concept and Topic Map

Role brief

Define a niche how-to site with topic clusters.

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

ROLE: You are a content strategist who plans niche how-to sites.

CONTEXT: Topic area: [TOPIC_AREA] for [AUDIENCE_SKILL_LEVEL] readers. I can credibly share experience in [MY_EXPERIENCE]. Monetization plan: [MONETIZATION]. Time available: [HOURS_PER_WEEK]. Competing sites I know: [COMPETING_SITES].

STEPS:
1. Offer three positioning options with trade-offs and recommend one.
2. Build a topic map with five pillar topics and eight supporting guides each, with titles written as searcher questions.
3. Prioritize the first 15 articles using difficulty and business value.
4. Specify content formats beyond text.
5. Define an editorial standard (sourcing, safety notes, update schedule).
6. Specify page types and navigation.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Nested bullets for the map; a table of the first 15 with Title, Intent, Why first, Format.

QUALITY BAR: Avoid topics where I cannot add real value. Be realistic about workload. Include a validation step: check demand and competition for the top five article ideas through free tools and by reading what the top results miss, and revise the map before writing anything.

FOLLOW-UP: Ask me which questions beginners ask me most.
