What category pages should do
A category page should explain the group, show the most useful tools, support search or filtering, and link to relevant guides. It should not be only a thin list of links.
Useful link blocks
- Popular tools in the category.
- Related workflows.
- Guide articles that explain the topic.
- Adjacent categories when the next task crosses a boundary.
Common mistakes
A large unrelated link grid can make the page harder to use. Keep links relevant to the category and verify that each target route works.
FAQ
Should every category page be indexable?
Usually yes when it has unique content and real tools. Empty or duplicate categories should not be indexed.
Can category pages link to guides?
Yes. Guides help users understand when and how to use the tools.
