Turn related search queries into usable topic clusters
Keep the query evidence and grouping rationale together so content planning can start with a clearer view of the topic.

Why this helps
Related queries can be hard to organize into coherent themes when research is spread across long keyword exports.
- Group related queries into themes
- Preserve why queries belong together
- Make content planning easier to discuss
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ahrefs and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named for topic cluster research.
- 3Tell Notis which topic and market to explore, then ask it to group related returned Ahrefs queries into distinct clusters and save the evidence and grouping rationale as Dovetail data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real topic and verify that clusters are distinct and supported by returned queries.
Questions about this workflow
Will every query fit a cluster?
No. Ask Notis to leave ambiguous or unrelated queries ungrouped rather than forcing a fit.
Does a cluster imply one page per group?
No. The clusters are research input for a content decision, not an automatic publishing plan.
