Topical Authority FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Topical Authority in OnPagePilot.

Topical Authority

From the competitor pages that actually rank for your keyword. OnPagePilot fetches each of them in a headless browser and extracts the topics and terms they cover. It is not a keyword-suggestion list - it is what the ranking pages say.

A single-keyword analysis answers one question: what do the ranking pages for this keyword cover? A Topical Authority Map answers a bigger one: what pillar page and which supporting cluster pages do you need to own the subject? Use the first for one article, the second when you plan a whole topic.

Yes. Competitor pages are rendered in a real headless browser before they are analysed, so single-page apps and script-rendered content are read the way a visitor sees them, not skipped.

Directly. The pillar and cluster context becomes the brief in the SEO Editor, so the terms the editor asks you to cover are the terms the ranking pages cover. There is no export and re-import step.

No. Topical Authority works per ranking page for the keyword you choose - it is competitor-driven. Site-wide crawling is the job of the Technical Audit.
