Topical Mapping · Hub and parent planning

How MIRENA plans authority hubs that hold the broad topic and route the branches.

Give MIRENA the parent topic, query and entity evidence, proposed child topics, current pages, user jobs, commercial route, and link graph. MIRENA tests whether the topic deserves a hub and defines the hub role, boundaries, branches, and next routes.

Planning problem

An authority hub is the primary topical center for a broad lane. It explains the parent topic, groups the branches, routes narrower intent, and collects support from the cluster.

The job is structural. MIRENA reviews ownership, intent, role, evidence, dependencies, routes, user progression, and downstream production before a decision is accepted.

Failure signal

A category page is mistaken for a hub

The page lists links without defining the topic or helping the reader choose.

Failure signal

The hub absorbs the entire cluster

The parent page becomes too long, mixed, and competitive with its children.

Failure signal

Support pages launch before the center

The cluster grows as isolated articles and needs expensive restructuring later.

Boundary: MIRENA does not create an authority hub for every broad phrase. The topic must support distinct children, stable parent intent, useful routes, and long term expansion value.

How MIRENA handles the work

The internal process moves from evidence into governed page and route decisions.

Test hub eligibility

Check broad intent, child depth, route value, internal support, and expansion potential.

Define the parent topic

Write the one line cluster promise and the broad query family the hub owns.

Group child branches

Organize child topics by real sub intent, not loose tags or keyword variants.

Set the hub boundary

Keep the parent overview, model, branch routes, and next step while moving deep detail to children.

Design the hub structure

Plan the opening answer, topic frame, grouped routes, decision support, proof, and next action.

Map support and sibling routes

Connect the hub to core children, proof, use cases, and nearby parent lanes.

Set the build order

Approve the hub and priority children before the long tail.

Create the brief handoff

Pass the parent job, exclusions, child groups, evidence, links, and action direction.

MIRENA keeps the important fields visible through the handoff.

Review states

MIRENA returns an owned decision instead of an unqualified recommendation.

Review statePass

The hub owns the broad topic and routes distinct branches.

Review stateRevise

The topic fits but the boundary or child grouping is weak.

Review stateHold

The cluster lacks evidence, child depth, or a stable page inventory.

Review stateBlock

The hub duplicates another parent or only supports one narrow page.

Connected workflow

The work moves into the next page that owns the decision.

Questions

Authority Hub Planning for SEO questions.

What is an authority hub?

It is the leading page for a broad topical lane, built to explain the parent topic and route readers into distinct child paths.

How is it different from a simple hub?

A simple hub may mainly organize links. An authority hub also owns the broad topic and carries enough depth to be useful on its own.

When does a topic deserve an authority hub?

When it has broad intent, several distinct child topics, useful internal routes, and long term expansion value.

What should stay off the hub?

Deep child detail, mixed intent sections, repeated support content, and adjacent topics that belong in another cluster.

What follows hub approval?

The hub and priority children move into the processed map, content briefs, and internal link plan.
