Keyword Clustering
Cluster by SERP overlap: keywords that share 4+ top-10 URLs belong to same cluster. One page targets the cluster.
SERP overlap clustering method
- List all related keywords (seed + variations)
- Pull top 10 SERP for each
- Compare URL overlap between keywords
- Keywords with 4+ shared URLs in top 10 → same cluster
- Each cluster → one piece of content
Manual clustering (simpler)
Group by:
- Same answer (all about 'how grading works')
- Same user need (all comparing PSA to alternatives)
- Same content type (all FAQ-style)
- Same time horizon (current vs upcoming)
- Same product (all about a specific service)
Tools
- Clusterly (paid SaaS, automatic)
- Surfer SEO (built-in clustering)
- Marketmuse (advanced topic clustering)
- Manual: spreadsheet + SERP comparison
- Free Keyword Cluster Tool (basic, less accurate)
