Full definition
In graph terms, a directed graph (digraph) captures that a link from A to B is not the same as B to A. Site architecture, PageRank-style flow, and crawl paths are all digraph phenomena: hubs, authorities, dead ends, and strongly connected topic regions.
Analyzing the content digraph reveals orphan nodes, bottlenecks, and clusters that never interconnect. SEO tooling often visualizes this structure even when it does not use the formal graph term.
Understanding content as a digraph clarifies why internal linking and entity hubs matter for both classic ranking and multi-document AI retrieval. See Internal Linking, Content Cluster, and Orphan Page.
