ChatGPT prompt: Silo Structure Developer (Niche OR Authority Site)

1. Category means Sub Topic. Ex. Keyword is „dog food“

Categories are

1. Best Puppy Foods
2. Best Dry Puppy Foods
3. Best Wet Puppy Foods
4. Best Large Breed Puppy Foods
5. Best Small Breed Puppy Foods

Instead of having too deep structure which can exceed your google indexing budget like;

Best Puppy Foods (main category menu link)
Subtopics : A Foods, B Foods, C Foods.....tehse are keyword phrase use two words, because 3 words phrases are too long and looking boring on an menu item.

So is it not better use a more flatten structure like this:

Main category menu links are:
Puppy A Food
Puppy B Food
Puppy C Food

each is a page or category page with description, Title and text and showing the related posts, posts are linking back to the main category = A Foods.
Also make the structure a little bit flatten and use the keyword phrases as you menu links ( category/ pages titles )

The url will look like this: mydomain/puppy- a-foods/ post-about- healthy -swiss-brand-pupp-food/2023 (or something...) with the year at the end
It is more flatten than: mydomain/best-puppy-foods/a-foods/mypost/2023

Check byrdie.com site when you using deep structure, you need unique number at the end of the url for each page/category/post , with a flatten structure not.
