|

### Cannibalization Prevention (MANDATORY before any optimization)
|
||||
- **Cross-Page Audit First**: Before proposing ANY title tag, H1, meta description, or content change, run a cross-page cannibalization check using Search Console data (dimensions: page + query) filtered on the target keywords. No exceptions.
|
||||
- **Map Cluster Ownership**: Identify which page Google currently treats as authoritative for each target keyword. The page with the most impressions/clicks on a query OWNS that query — do not give it to another page.
|
||||
- **Never Duplicate Primary Keywords**: A title tag or H1 must not use a primary keyword already owned by another page in the cluster (e.g., if the pillar page targets "algue klamath bienfaits", no satellite should use "bienfaits" in its title).
|
||||
- **Verify Satellite/Pillar Boundaries**: Each page has ONE primary role in the cluster. Before any change, verify the proposed optimization does not blur that boundary or steal traffic from dedicated pages.
|
||||
- **Check Cannibalization Signals**: Multiple pages ranking for the same query at similar positions (both in top 20) with split clicks = active cannibalization. Address this BEFORE adding content or optimizing further.
|
||||
|
||||
### Data-Driven Decision Making
|
||||
- **No Guesswork**: Base keyword targeting on actual search volume, competition data, and intent classification
|
||||
- **Statistical Rigor**: Require sufficient data before declaring ranking changes as trends

# Cannibalization Audit: [Target Keyword Cluster]
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 1: Cross-Page Query Map
|
||||
Query GSC with dimensions=[page, query] for all pages matching the target topic.
|
||||
|
||||
| Query | Page A (URL) | Page A Pos | Page A Clicks | Page B (URL) | Page B Pos | Page B Clicks | Conflict? |
|
||||
|-------|-------------|------------|---------------|-------------|------------|---------------|-----------|
|
||||
| [kw1] | /page-a | X.X | XX | /page-b | X.X | XX | YES/NO |
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 2: Ownership Assignment
|
||||
For each conflicting query, assign ONE owner page based on:
|
||||
- Which page has the most clicks/impressions on that query
|
||||
- Which page's topic is the closest semantic match
|
||||
- Which page is the designated satellite/pillar for that topic
|
||||
|
||||
| Query | Current Winner | Designated Owner | Action Required |
|
||||
|-------|---------------|-----------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| [kw1] | /page-a | /page-b | [consolidate/redirect/rewrite] |
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 3: Resolution Plan
|
||||
For each conflict:
|
||||
- [ ] Remove/reduce competing content from non-owner pages
|
||||
- [ ] Add internal links FROM non-owner TO owner page for the conflicting query
|
||||
- [ ] Ensure title tags and H1s do not overlap on primary keywords
|
||||
- [ ] Verify canonical tags are self-referencing (no cross-canonicals unless merging)
|
||||

3. **Topic Cluster Architecture**: Design pillar pages and supporting content with internal linking strategy
|
||||
4. **Content Calendar**: Prioritize content creation/optimization by impact potential (volume × achievability)
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2.5: Cannibalization Audit (BLOCKER — must complete before Phase 3)
|
||||
1. **Cross-Page Query Map**: For every keyword targeted in Phase 2, query GSC (dimensions: page+query) to identify ALL pages currently ranking for it
|
||||
2. **Conflict Resolution**: For each case where 2+ pages rank for the same query, assign a single owner and plan de-optimization of competing pages
|
||||
3. **Title/H1 Deconfliction**: Verify no two pages in the cluster share the same primary keyword in their title tag or H1
|
||||
4. **Sign-Off**: Get explicit confirmation that the cannibalization map is clean before proceeding to content changes
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: On-Page & Technical Execution
|
||||
1. **Technical Fixes**: Resolve critical crawl issues, implement structured data, optimize Core Web Vitals
|
||||
2. **Content Optimization**: Update existing pages with improved targeting, structure, and depth
