How to Create Pillar Pages and Cluster Content in a Single Automated Process

Pillar pages and topic clusters are the backbone of modern SEO — but creating them manually takes weeks of planning and writing. What if you could generate a complete pillar-cluster system in minutes? With Summrly, you can. Just enter your main topic, and AI will instantly create a comprehensive pillar page, plus a set of tightly related cluster articles — all with internal links, keyword optimization, and natural content flow. No spreadsheets, no outlines, no writer’s block.

Why a Content-First Website Solves This

Most websites build content backward — writing random posts without strategy. Summrly starts with your core topic and uses AI to map out a full content ecosystem. It identifies the best subtopics, answers common questions, and organizes everything into a clear hierarchy. This means your pillar page becomes a central hub of authority, while cluster content drives targeted traffic — all connected in a way that boosts SEO and user experience.

Step-by-Step Guide

Create Your First Topic – Enter your main subject (e.g., “intermittent fasting for weight loss”) to trigger AI clustering.
Set Up Your Content Focus – Choose your audience (beginners, experts) and goal (traffic, leads).
Add Keywords – Include primary and secondary terms; AI will assign them to pillar or cluster content.
Brand Details – Add your brand name and tone preferences for consistent voice.
Complete Setup – Publish with a fully linked system: 1 pillar page + 5–10 cluster articles ready to rank.

Enter your topic below to generate a complete pillar and cluster content system — and build topical authority in minutes, not months.

Case Study: 6 Clusters, 8 Weeks, 40 New Rankings

A health coach wanted to rank for “keto lifestyle” but had no content strategy. She used Summrly to enter her topic and instantly received a pillar page titled “The Complete Guide to Living Keto” and six cluster articles like “keto meal prep for busy professionals” and “how to handle keto flu.” She published all AI-generated content with minor edits. Within 8 weeks, the cluster pages ranked for 40+ keywords, and organic traffic grew by 150%. Google recognized the site as a clear authority — thanks to a smart, AI-built structure.
