However, if you haven\u2019t yet created a pillar page, or you\u2019re thinking about revamping yours, then now is a good time.<\/p>\n<p>And one of the best ways to learn is to see what others are doing, and how they\u2019re doing it. So we\u2019ve gathered seven tip-top pillar pages from various websites to show you the key elements that work.<\/p>\n<h2>Pillar page basics<\/h2>\n<p>Pillar pages are the foundational columns in your site architecture, around which all your other content is built.<\/p>\n<p>Pillar pages offer a broad but authoritative overview of a particular topic, with links to more in-depth articles and keyword-based blog posts on relevant sub-topics scattered throughout.<\/p>\n<p>Not only are pillar pages a neat way to organize your content, but they also make it easy for readers to navigate your site, which boosts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/research\/market-research\/engagement-rate\/\">engagement rate<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/research\/market-research\/session-duration\/\">session durations<\/a>, and signal your authority on key user queries to Google, resulting in higher rankings.<\/p>\n<p>With fewer than five per site on average, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/databox.com\/examples-of-high-performing-pillar-pages#:~:text=The%20majority%20of%20content%20marketers%20we%20polled%20said%20they%20had%20fewer%20than%20five%2C%20with%2020%25%20saying%20they%20had%20between%2011%20and%2020%3A\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">databox.com<\/a>, a handful of pillar pages are responsible for supporting a lot of content on your site. In order to do so, they need to follow some golden rules:<\/p>\n<p>Golden rules for pillar pages<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Broad<\/strong> &#8211; your pillar page should be broad enough to support anything from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clariantcreative.com\/blog\/5-great-pillar-page-examples#:~:text=A%20great%20pillar%20page%20should,page%20topic%20is%20too%20narrow.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">six to 20 additional posts<\/a>. Anything less than that could be a sign that your pillar page is too narrow in focus, anything more and it could be too broad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Relevant<\/strong> &#8211; Understand the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/seo\/search-intent\/\">search intent<\/a> and address the key user query that brought them to your page as soon as possible and tease further revelations later.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Readable<\/strong> &#8211; Remember, your pillar page has to serve as a shining example of the fantastically readable and informative content you have on the rest of your site to ensure readers will keep clicking. That means punchy, active, engaging prose broken up by plenty of visual aids.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skimmable<\/strong> &#8211; pillar pages tend to be longer than the average post, and readers often have a specific intention when researching a topic, so make it easy for them to find what they\u2019re looking for when scrolling down the page with clearly defined sections, strong headers, highly relevant images, and bullet points to break up the paragraphs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Navigable<\/strong> &#8211; a table of contents with anchor links to relevant sections, and links back to the top, and a floating table of contents that follows the user down the page will enhance user experience and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/research\/market-research\/reduce-bounce-rate\/\">improve your bounce rate<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optimized<\/strong> &#8211; It\u2019s no good putting all this work into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/content-marketing\/content-creation-process\/\">creating great content<\/a> if your page doesn\u2019t rank. Make sure your page is SEO optimized using the 9 steps in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/seo\/on-page-seo\/\">on-page SEO checklist<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leave them wanting more<\/strong> &#8211; if your pillar page is too long, it\u2019s probably because you\u2019re covering the topic in too much detail. You need to provoke interest in your subtopics without laying everything out on the table. That way, your pages will be neater and more concise, which makes it easier to digest information, and your reader will be encouraged on their journey deeper into your website.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Evergreen<\/strong> &#8211; your pillar page should be able to stand the test of time, with a few updates now and again.

It\u2019s addressing a broad topic &#8211; building a content marketing strategy &#8211; with clear, information dense sections, each peppered with links to blog posts on highly relevant subtopics.<\/p>\n<h3>What do we love about it?<\/h3>\n<p>How to Build a Content Marketing Strategy ticks off a lot of our golden rules for pillar posts. It\u2019s highly readable, with conversational and engaging prose; it\u2019s generous with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/seo\/internal-links\/\">internal links<\/a> to everything from how to do a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/content-marketing\/competitive-content-analysis\/\">competitive content analysis<\/a> to conducting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/seo\/keyword-research\/\">keyword research<\/a>; and it\u2019s easy to navigate thanks to a sticky table of contents that follows the reader down the page.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you copy?<\/h3>\n<p>Clocking in at just over 4,200 words, this is a long article, even by pillar page standards. And that\u2019s justifiable &#8211; content marketing is a massive topic. However, thanks to a progress bar at the top of the page, the reader isn\u2019t abandoned to seemingly endless scrolling. The progress bar lets the reader know how much of the post they\u2019ve already read, and how much they have left to go, which can encourage them to keep going to the end of the post.<\/p>\n<h2>2.

It delivers clear, concise information to the reader on everything from the difference between wine and table grapes to the combination of elements that explain wine\u2019s unique taste, with well-placed links to more in-depth articles. Know your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/research\/audience-and-brand-building\/target-audience-analysis\/\">target audience<\/a>. For some topics, conversational and humorous can aid understanding. For others, it can be best to just deliver the information the reader came for.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you copy?<\/h3>\n<p>The infographics. They\u2019re genuinely useful and really enhance the page, rather than seeming tagged on. Use infographics on your own pillar page to illustrate data and statistics or simplify complex subjects.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-123605\" src=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image7-1.png\" alt=\"what\u2019s inside a bottle of wine infographic.\" width=\"617\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image7-1.png 617w, https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image7-1-217x300.png 217w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 617px) 100vw, 617px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>3.

Focusing on one US city as an example of the state of American healthcare, it uses a combination of text, graphs, and dynamic infographics to tell a story and encourage readers to learn more by linking out to other compellingly titled pages like \u2018The Culture Wars: Healthcare Edition\u2019 and \u2018The Beauty of Shared Risk\u2019.<\/p>\n<h3>What do we love about it?<\/h3>\n<p>Population Healthier is a study of how great page design can enhance user experience. Content and graphics are boxed off from each other in clearly defined sections that stick to a strict palette, and the dynamic infographics build on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/blog\/marketing\/content-marketing\/storytelling-content-marketing\/\">storytelling<\/a> in the copy.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you copy?<\/h3>\n<p>Tell a story.
