Hub reachability
Every detail page should have a visible path back to its hub.
Visibility architecture
Internal linking architecture for AI reply tools
Internal linking for an AI reply tool should connect every indexable page to a hub, footer column, sitemap entry, llms.txt reference, and related content block. TypeToSell uses hub-and-spoke clusters so crawlers and AI assistants can reach answers, use cases, comparisons, tools, and sources predictably.

Signals
What this page should make clear
Footer grouping
Footer links should remain grouped by search intent rather than dumped into one long list.
Related links
Detail pages should link to the next best answer, tool, use case, source, or comparison page.
Machine-readable paths
Sitemap and llms files should include the same public page families.
Implementation
How TypeToSell should apply it
Add the hub
Create a new L1 hub only when at least three supporting pages exist.
Wire the footer
Add a grouped footer column for the hub and its highest-value spokes.
Update machine files
Add hub and detail pages to sitemap, llms.txt, and llms-full.txt.
Test the contract
Add tests that fail if the page family drops schema, sitemap, footer, or llms coverage.

FAQ
Visibility questions
What makes an SEO page orphaned?
A page is effectively orphaned when it exists but is not reachable from a hub, footer, related link, sitemap, or AI-readable source map.
Why group footer links?
Grouped footer columns help people, crawlers, and AI systems understand which pages belong to the same search intent cluster.
Should TypeToSell create a new hub for every keyword?
No. A new L1 hub should exist only when there are multiple supporting pages and a durable information architecture reason.
