SEO content strategy:
a plan for every page before anyone writes.

Most content fails in the planning, not the writing. Our SEO content strategy fixes the plan. You get a map of what your buyers ask and links that point strength to the pages that sell. Every piece gets a brief, so nothing goes live without a reason.

What we do

PixelCrayons' SEO content strategy decides what to publish, in what order, and how it links together. We group your buyers' questions into topics. We name the subjects your site must be known for. We plan how pages link and write a brief for every piece before drafting starts. We can write it, or your team can.

  1. A topic map, with the most valuable pages firstYour buyers' questions grouped into topics you can own, ordered by what they're worth to sales.
  2. A clear story about your business that search engines trustOne consistent story about who you are, told the same way in names, schema, definitions and links.
  3. A plan for the links between your pagesMain pages and supporting pages planned before publishing: which pages gather strength, which pass it on.

Every cluster, in writing

What you get
from the strategy work.

01

A topic map, with the most valuable pages first

We gather the questions your buyers ask and group them into topics you can truly own. Then we order them by what they're worth, with searches from people ready to buy first. Every future piece is checked against this map.

First
02

A clear story about your business that search engines trust

Search engines and AI tools need one clear story about who you are and what you know. We tell it the same way everywhere they look: names, schema (structured data), definitions and links. A muddled story quietly holds back your rankings and AI mentions. This work fixes that.

Ongoing
03

A plan for the links between your pages

We plan main pages and supporting pages before publishing starts. We decide which pages gather strength, which pass it on and what words each link uses. Links planned upfront always work better than links added later.

Per cluster
04

A brief with every piece

Each brief sets the target search, what the searcher wants and the answer the piece must give. It lists the subjects to cover and the links in and out. We write it before drafting starts. That's the promise of our whole SEO service: you can check exactly why each piece exists.

Every piece
05

Stopping your pages competing with each other

Each page has one main job. Pages that overlap get made different or merged. Pages that never earned their place get cut. Every quarter, we reorder the map as topics are finished and the market moves.

Quarterly
How it starts

From audit to a site plan,
step by step.

01
Start

Brief and access

We sign an NDA and get access to your site, your analytics and everything already published.

02
Once the brief is complete

Audit and itemised proposal

We audit what's published and confirm when your proposal arrives. It sets out the topics, the subjects to own, the link plan and the publishing order, itemised and priced.

03
Your decision

You sign off

You confirm the scope, the payment and the access we need. Nothing starts before this.

04
Typically 2 to 3 business days later

The work starts

We write the briefs for the first topic and set up the link plan. We also merge overlapping pages for quick wins.

05
Every month after

Build topic by topic

Topics are finished one by one. We rescore the map against real rankings and AI mentions. The monthly report tracks positions, impressions and AI citations.

Inside Prism

Your engagement, week to week,
in one workspace.

Prism is the client workspace where your requests, approvals, tasks and weekly reviews live.

Some engagements include Prism, our client workspace, and your proposal says whether yours does. Where it does, your search programme runs in a workspace you log into: the fix queue, the content queue, approvals and the weekly review, with each decision written down as it is made.

  • 01

    Fix and content queues

    Approvals with an owner and a due date.

  • 02

    Weekly review

    Each decision written down as it is made.

  • 03

Proof

How a topic map
helped a SaaS site rank.

Brand panel: anonymised case study, B2B SaaS, UK, search and AI-answer visibility
SaaS · UK
Direct engagement

B2B SaaS: the map came first. The rankings followed.

Before anything was written, we grouped buyer questions, put them in order of value and planned the links between pages. Every published piece traced back to that map, and no page was left unlinked. The traffic figure on the card took five months. It came with mentions in AI Overviews on the searches the sales team cares about.

How we run it

How a brief gets written,
field by field.

Every piece gets a brief before a word is drafted, whether our writers or yours pick it up. We fill in the fields in the same order each time. So the brief is also the record of why the page exists.

  1. 01Place it on the mapWe find the search in its topic group. We note the main page it links up to and its place in the publishing order, by value.
  2. 02Check nothing else owns itEach page has one main job. If a page already answers the search, we change or merge it rather than brief a near copy.
  3. 03Name the intentWhat the searcher is trying to do, stated plainly, so the piece answers that and not a neighbouring question.
  4. 04Write the required answerThe answer the piece must give, in a form buyers can skim, Google can rank and AI engines can cite.
  5. 05List the entitiesThe named subjects the piece must cover, in line with the plan for the whole site.
  6. 06Plan the linksThe links the piece sends and receives, and the words each one uses, decided before publish day.

When your own writers work from the briefs, we check structure, fit and links before anything is published.

Questions

Frequently
asked.

It's the plan that decides what your content should do before anyone writes. It sets which topics you can own and which questions to answer first. It also sets how pages link together and what each piece must achieve. Done well, it serves three readers: buyers looking for an answer, Google deciding what ranks and AI tools deciding what to cite.

This page is the planning: the map, the subjects to own, the link plan and the briefs. Content marketing is the full service. It adds writing, editing, publishing and promotion. If your writers just need better direction, you want this page. If you want the writing done too, you want content marketing.

Every question people ask in your market, grouped into topics and matched to what searchers want. For each search, it records the page that answers it and what that page must cover. It also records the page's links and its place in the publishing order. And it lists what not to build, so your pages never compete with each other.

A topic map ordered by value and a plan for the subjects you must own. A link plan, and a brief for every piece before drafting starts. After that, every quarter, we stop pages competing and cut weak ones as topics are finished. We can write the content, or your own team can.

Yes, that's one of the most common ways we work. We supply the map, the link plan and a brief for every piece. Your team writes. We check structure, fit and links before anything is published. The briefs protect you. The plan is written down and owned by you, so it outlasts any change of writer, agency or tool.

The plan arrives fast: the map and first briefs within the first month. Pieces for buyers close to deciding can bring good traffic within weeks, so the map puts them first. Wider topic strength typically grows between months three and six. The monthly report tracks positions, impressions and AI citations. So you see results building before they reach revenue.

at the direct rate.

Priced as a project to build the topic map and site structure. Teams with their own writers can buy briefs one at a time. A light retainer keeps the map in order as each topic group is finished. The writing itself is priced under Content marketing.
