📘 Domain Knowledge Network (DKN) + Vibe Coding in OTTO v3

How to generate your topical map, fine-tune it with AI, and send articles into Content Genius.

Updated this week

The Domain Knowledge Network (DKN) in OTTO v3 allows you to build topical authority based on your actual website architecture. OTTO detects your pages, suggests target pages, and surfaces 4–5 high-value keywords for each. The first 3 keywords flow seamlessly into Content Genius for article creation. With Vibe Coding, you can modify your DKN using natural language instructions (e.g. “edit the title… change the page type…”) and apply adjustments instantly.

🧭 Step-by-Step Instructions

1) Open the DKN module

  1. Log in to Search Atlas.

  2. From the left-hand menu, go to OTTO & Audit → Overview and select your website project.

  3. Navigate to the Recommendations tab and locate the Domain Knowledge Network card.

  4. Click Generate now / Generate Topical Maps.

You will see the message:

“Preparing your knowledge network — This may take 2 to 3 minutes.” ⏱️

2) Complete your Business Information (for best results)

Actions:

  1. Click the ✎ icon to edit each field.

  2. Save changes → you’ll see “Business information updated successfully.”

  4. The row status changes to In Progress, and once ready, you’ll have the option to View Article.

  5. Selecting Continue or View Article opens the article draft in Content Genius with the top 3 keywords pre-loaded.

5) Understand Generation Status

  • Pending Creation: not yet sent to Content Genius.

  • In Progress: article is being generated.

  • Generated: article successfully created (use View Article).

  3. Submit your instruction with the arrow (↑).

  4. The table refreshes to show applied changes.

  5. Use Create Article again for newly updated rows.

Best practices:
