Topical Authority Scan
Evaluate content gaps, topical coverage, and authority opportunities before expanding your site structure.
What is Topical Authority Scan?
Topical Authority Scan is planned as an ETS tool for evaluating how well a site covers a subject area and where content gaps may be limiting authority.
How does TAS help content planning?
It is intended to help identify missing topics, weak supporting content, and opportunities to build a more complete topical structure around important subjects.
Is Topical Authority Scan available now?
Topical Authority Scan is currently treated as a coming ETS category. Availability depends on the official release schedule and product rollout.
How is topical authority different from keyword research?
Keyword research looks at specific search terms. Topical authority looks at whether your site sufficiently covers the broader subject area with useful, connected content.
Can TAS help identify content gaps?
Yes, that is one of the intended uses. The tool should help reveal topics, questions, or supporting pages that may be missing from an authority-building content plan.
Will TAS create content automatically?
Not by itself. TAS is expected to focus on scanning and planning. Content creation would be handled by a content-focused tool such as SmartTopicPro.
Who should use Topical Authority Scan?
Site owners, publishers, niche builders, and marketers who want to build stronger topic coverage before blindly publishing more articles into the void.
How often should a site be scanned?
A practical rhythm would be before major content planning, after adding a large batch of content, or when entering a new topical cluster.
Will TAS connect with other ETS products?
The intended direction is for TAS to support the wider ETS workflow by helping identify opportunities that can later be researched, built, optimized, and measured.
