    5-Article AEO Content Cluster: Answer Engine Optimization

    What Is a 5-Article AEO Cluster?
    Five fully written articles targeting a single keyword cluster — each optimized for featured snippet capture and direct answer placements. Every article includes a definition box, question-led heading structure, FAQ section with FAQPage JSON-LD schema, and speakable blocks. Published as drafts to your WordPress site via REST API.

    A single optimized article can capture one featured snippet. A five-article cluster captures the whole topic — the primary question, the supporting questions, the comparison angles, and the how-to layer. Together they signal topical authority to Google and cover enough surface area to intercept multiple PAA (People Also Ask) placements simultaneously.

    This is the minimum viable content cluster for establishing answer-engine presence in a new topic area.

    What Each Article Includes

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do you pick the 5 article topics within the cluster?

    We analyze the keyword cluster for primary intent, supporting questions, comparison angles, and how-to sub-topics — then map one article to each layer. You approve the outline before we write.

    Are these published live or as drafts?

    Published as drafts to your WordPress site via REST API. You review and publish when ready.

    Can I provide my own outline or topic list?

    Yes — if you have a specific 5-article map in mind, we’ll write to it. We’ll flag any topics that overlap significantly or that we think should be adjusted for better cluster coverage.
