Silo structure is an architecture method used in website design to organize and present content. The content of a website is grouped into categories, tags, or themes creating sections known as silos. Within each silo, the content should be tightly related around a specific topic.
Theme-based silos are when the content in each section of the website shares similar relevance around that particular theme. Each theme can represent different aspects of business or topics which are important for driving traffic to a site.
For example:
Keyword-based silos use keywords as organization structures resulting from market research including keyword niches these organize like-minded groups together hoping that they will boost search optimization results by creating more comprehensive coverage across many terms without direct repetitiveness.
An example could be:
This type organizes items under focus rather than subject matter.Allows grouping of resources about subjects useful in single siting yet aren't composite enough to fit within groups.
Example:
On fashion sites grouping clothes per size range S,M,XL,XLL,Petite,Tall ETC effectively brings ease for online shoppers finding desired item also reducing likelihoods of confusion during payment processing sessions.

• Exploring Wikipedia or LinkedIn hyperlinks, showing up on search results SERPS using most frequent stimuli subscribers often get engaged within
Organizing a website into categories is the initial step, with each article fitting in at least one category. Tags are used for more precise searches of similar articles falling under same subjects therein.
