  1. 1

    Collect candidate companies and their primary websites.

  2. 2

    Choose mutually useful categories, then place each company where a buyer would expect it.

  3. 3

    Add the date and review what changed before sharing the map.

Example to adapt

Map a developer-tools niche by testing, deployment, observability and workflow automation.

Common question

Use enough to help a reader compare choices without creating a category for every company. Start small and split crowded groups only when the distinction matters.
