Flagship feature pages linked from main nav
Break major products, services, or differentiating features into dedicated landing pages and link the important ones directly from the main navigation.
Why this can grow a startup
A single catch-all page forces both buyers and crawlers to guess what matters. Separate feature pages make the category map clearer, create stronger internal linking, and give the brand a better shot at owning the exact topics it wants to be known for. They also make AI answers less likely to flatten the product into a vague summary.
Source-backed example
Ahrefs' brand SEO framework recommends splitting flagship services or features into dedicated landing pages and placing the main ones in navigation so the brand can own those topics more clearly in search.

When to use it
Use this when SEO, Website, AI Search is relevant to seo, site-architecture, brand and you can run a bounded test with a low budget.
When not to use it
Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.
How to do it
- Choose one target segment and define the exact next action this tactic should prompt.
- Adapt the tactic to SEO and Website, using evidence from Ahrefs Blog as context—not as a promised result.
- Record a baseline for: Qualified search visitors who complete the intended next action. Set a guardrail that would make you pause the test.
- Run a narrow pilot and choose a test window that fits the normal decision or use cycle; do not scale before you have observed the full cycle.
- Compare the signal with its baseline. Scale only if the intended action improves without crossing the guardrail; otherwise revise one variable or stop and record what you learned.
