👋Social-First Map Settings

Map Name

This is just for your reference. Name it whatever you like!

Niche

The broad "parent topic" of your website, business, brand, etc.

If you're a beginner blogger or not sure where to start, see this guide on choosing a niche.

Example niches:

• digital marketing

• table tennis

• dog food

• pet snakes

• computer game shortcuts

• VPN tools

TIP: We suggest keeping the niche REALLY broad. It's better to let the AI come up with TOO MANY ideas, rather than too few.

Language

The language that the AI should return.

Under the hood, this basically functions as a translation and does NOT affect the actual topics generated.

Country

The topics, subtopics, etc, will be slightly geared towards this country.

Note 1: This SHOULDN'T affect the output language, but sometimes the AI gets confused here.

Note 2: This SHOULD be a "slight" targeting, but sometimes the AI goes overboard and tries to make ALL topics related to the country.

Note 3 for 'Cluster Views': Choosing a target country does NOT affect the search volume metric shown. TMAI shows the global monthly search volume. (This is as of August 2024, and will hopefully change as we update this!)

Amount of Topics

The general size of the map. Choosing fewer topics yields fewer subtopics & fewer microtopics, but the results will likely be more relevant.

Choosing more topics yields more subtopics & microtopics, but the results might be more 'creative.'

🧧 CREDITS: The amount of topics you choose will cost less/more credits.

Model

The AI model that will be used under the hood. Generally speaking, the more expensive & larger models (Claude 3 Sonnet & GPT-4o) should perform better, although a bit slower.

We believe the smaller models still perform excellently for most tasks, but you should test for yourself & your niche!

🧧 CREDITS: The AI model you choose will affect credits.

• Claude 3 Haiku & GPT-4o-Mini = 1 credit

• Claude 3 Sonnet & GPT-4o = 2 credits

Edit subtopics before generating map?

If you select yes, the AI will generate a short list of subtopics (under your main niche topic), that you can edit.

You can...

• Edit subtopic text (as well as the parent topic text) by clicking the text and typing

• Remove subtopics (using the delete icon)

• Add a subtopic manually (it'll have placeholder data which you can click to edit)

• Generate more subtopics with AI (which you edit further)

🧧 CREDITS: Generating more subtopics marginally increases the map credits used.
