What problem does it solve?

It helps you design an effective website information architecture so visitors can quickly find the right pages and search engines can understand the structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Page hierarchy & URL structure: Creates a clear parent-child page model (including URL patterns) that reflects how your site is organized.
  • Navigation design: Recommends header/footer/sidebar/breadcrumb approaches (including item limits and placement) to reduce decision paralysis.
  • Internal linking strategy: Defines how pages should link together using hub-and-spoke and contextual linking so important pages receive authority and no pages become orphaned.
  • Deliverables for planning and alignment: Produces an ASCII page hierarchy, a Mermaid visual sitemap, a URL map table, and navigation + internal linking specs.
  • Scope boundaries: Focuses on design decisions for hierarchy/navigation/URL patterns, and explicitly defers technical SEO tasks to other skills (e.g., XML sitemaps).
