How to track topic clusters with SERPView?
Track the performance of all your topics and content strategy in a centralized graph with track topic clusters in SERPView. It displays clicks, impressions, CTR, position, and important keywords for your selected clusters, all together.
What are Topic Clusters?
Topic clusters are a group of interrelated, thematically relational pages on a website that cover a topic from different angles to fulfill content marketing goals.
Google Search Console does not list keywords as a specific part, but rather includes them as queries. This is an important part to note, as keywords and queries are different.
A query is a search term that users search on the search engine, while keywords are specific terms that search engine bots recognize and analyze for SERPs.
For example, when searching for laptops, both the best laptop for students and laptop for graphic designers are important, yet GSC shows them as unrelated, though they contain the focus keyword.
How To Setup Topic Clusters in SERPView?
SERPView offers an advantage over Google Search Console, as you can define the keywords that are vital pillars of your content strategy and track their performance over time.
To set up track topic clusters on SERPView, follow the steps given below:

How To Use Topic Clusters For Analytics?
