What Is Pillar Content?
So What Is Pillar Content & Why Do I Need It?
Pillar content, sometimes referred to as a “content pillar“, is a long-form article that is usually broken up into various sections and topics. A few popular approaches to pillar content are eBooks, in-depth product comparisons, and complex guides and tutorials. Pillar content is one of the best tactics for competing for competitive keywords, and when done right, will result in thousands of individual keyword rankings for a single page. This means that any given pillar page could be responsible for thousands of clicks to your website each month.

What Makes Pillar Content Different?
Pillar content should be more than just a really long blog article. When done properly, readers should want to read most if not all of the article – even if it’s 10,000 words long.
Pillar content is most effective when it educates the reader or helps the reader to make a decision. For example, a tutorial on how to invest in stock options or a product review article that compares various types of printers.
When designing a piece of pillar content, two of the most important things we focus on are topical breadth and topical depth. This ensures that we cover every relevant topic to the keyword focus and provide a thorough, in-depth answer to each question the reader may have.
Content Length
When it comes to pillar content, length matters. With a minimum of 5,000 words, these articles are not your average blog article.

Pillar content can take a little bit longer to produce. Articles will usually take a minimum of 10 to 14 days to fully research, write, edit, and optimize. However, depending on the length, complexity, and background research required that timeframe could be longer.
If we do not already have a writer that we work with that specializes in your niche, we recruit one. Once we have a writer assigned to your article, it will be researched and planned for by one of our editors and the writer. The writer will then create the content based on the established content brief.
At a minimum, we will need to understand the products or services that you are ultimately promoting and a general concept for the article. If you’d like to provide any additional direction we’re always happy to take it. From here, we will perform research, create a brief, and produce the content.
So far there has not been a niche we couldn’t write for. We’re happy to hop on a call to talk through our process and share examples of content we’ve created in the past if you’re concerned whether we’ll be able to carry the load,
