A brief or an article can cover more than one topic.

Why you combine topics

Topics in Genezio are narrow on purpose. The narrow scope lets Genezio measure visibility. Real content is frequently wider. One buyer’s guide can correctly answer questions from three different topics. If you divide it into three thin pages, the pages help nobody. When you select more than one topic, Genezio writes one piece that gets citations for all of the topics. Genezio does not write one piece for each topic.

When to combine topics

Do combine topics that a reader expects to find in one location. For example, a comparison page usually covers pricing, features, and alternatives. Do not combine topics only to save time. A piece that covers unrelated questions does not answer any of them well. Answer engines lift passages. If a page is about four subjects in a vague way, it has no passage that an engine can lift. Use this test: if a person searches for topic A and finds this page, is the person satisfied? If the answer is no, write two pieces.

What changes in the result

The brief covers the questions from all the topics that you selected. Genezio writes the article to answer these questions in one structure. Later, when you look at the topics that the piece supports, the piece shows under each of these topics.
