📊 Hierarchy of Questions
This is one of the most important SOPs I've in my content writing guidelines.
It’s about setting the hierarchy of questions asked in the content.
Questions might be of different types i.e representative questions and represented questions.
Representative questions would be considered broad questions, and represented would be those who come under a broad one.
📌 Example of Representative & Represented Questions
Take an example of the following representative question:
- 👉 How to do exercise?
And the represented questions for that representative one would be:
- 👉 How to do exercise for beginners?
- 👉 How to do exercise for women?
- 👉 How to do exercise for men?
- 👉 How to do exercise for kids?
- 👉 How to do exercise for weight loss?
- 👉 How to do exercise for weight gain?
Now obviously, you wouldn’t write each represented question in your article.
But, the decision for the selection of the represented question would come from:
- 🌅 Queries
- 🌅 Source Context (A concept from Koray Tugberk GUBUR's framework)
- 🌅 Consensus
- 🌅 Contextual vector and contextual hierarchy
- 🌅 Macro context
- 🌅 Micro context of the document
The reason for processing the questions in that specific order in the content is to help search engines better understand the structure of the information.
⛳️ The more your document structure is organized and easy to understand for search engines, the higher the chances for better rankings for the document of your source.
