Definition

A pillar page is the hub of a topic cluster — comprehensive enough to be the definitive resource on a broad keyword, with links to dozens of narrow cluster pages that cover sub-topics in depth. The pattern concentrates authority on the pillar while distributing topical coverage across the cluster.

Example

A "Programmatic SEO" pillar page links to 12 cluster posts on specific aspects: data sources, page templates, indexation, etc.
