Plan the internal links for this group of pages.
Pages:
<pages>
[Pages]
</pages>
Main topic: [Topic]
Goal: [Goal]
Approach: 1. Treat the list as material. Choose the page that works best as the overview for [Topic] and justify the choice. 2. Give every other page one clear sub-question so that no two pages compete for the same search. 3. Make a table: from page, to page, suggested anchor text, place in the text. Every page gets at least two incoming links from the group. 4. Mark pages with no incoming links and pages that overlap so much that merging them would be better. 5. Write anchor texts as natural phrases that describe the target page, without repeating the same keyword everywhere.

Take particular care to give every page its own sub-question and write anchor texts that describe the target honestly.

Before you answer, check: Are all instructions met? If key information is missing or a placeholder in square brackets is still in the text, ask instead of guessing. Mark assumptions as assumptions.

How to use it

Fill in the fields or tap a suggestion. Leave out names, addresses and other personal data.
Copy the finished prompt into an AI tool of your choice.
Add the links by hand, check every target URL once and look at the pages again after a few weeks.

Why does this work?

A clear overview and one sub-question per page help search engines and readers understand the structure. Varied, descriptive anchor texts read naturally and say where a link leads.

Tips

Links in the running text usually help readers more than long link lists at the end of a page.
