The problem
Teams often use these labels interchangeably. How should each page type be defined so keyword targeting and calls to action are clearer?

Define page types by user intent and business job, not by design template.

1. A service page explains an ongoing commercial offering and should usually be durable, conversion-oriented, and integrated into primary navigation.

2. A campaign landing page is built around a specific audience, offer, channel, or promotion. It may be intentionally narrower and may or may not be an organic-search target.

3. An SEO article primarily answers an informational question, builds topic depth, or supports discovery. It can lead toward a service but should satisfy the information need first.

4. Do not make an article compete with the service page for the exact same transactional intent. Use internal links to connect informational queries to the commercial destination.

5. Use different CTAs by intent: request service on a service page, claim the campaign offer on a landing page, and continue learning or explore the relevant service from an article.

6. Store page type and target intent in the CMS so content planning and cannibalization checks can use them.

When the page type is clear, keyword mapping becomes easier because each URL has a distinct role in the customer journey.
