Process

Phase 1: Site Indexation & Structure

Assess the site's SEO footprint using site: queries.

Searches to run:

• site:[domain] — Estimate total indexed pages
• site:[domain] blog — Find blog content
• site:[domain] intitle: — See page title patterns
• site:[domain]/pricing or site:[domain]/features — Key conversion pages
• site:[domain] filetype:pdf — Whitepapers, guides (content marketing signal)

What to extract:

• Approximate number of indexed pages
• Content categories (blog, docs, landing pages, comparison pages)
• URL structure patterns
• Presence of key conversion pages (pricing, demo, signup)

Phase 2: Keyword Ranking Probes

Check where the target ranks for important keywords. For each keyword:

Technique: Run a WebSearch for the keyword and scan results for the target domain.

Standard keyword categories to check:

A) Brand keywords

• [company name]
• [company name] review
• [company name] alternative
• [company name] vs [competitor]
• [company name] pricing

B) Product/category keywords

• [primary category] (e.g., "cloud cost optimization")
• [primary category] tools
• [primary category] platform
• [primary category] software
• best [primary category]

C) Problem/pain keywords

• [core problem] (e.g., "reduce AWS bill")
• how to [solve problem]
• [problem] for startups
• [problem] free tool

D) Competitor comparison keywords

• [competitor] alternative
• [competitor] vs [target]
• [competitor] pricing

For each search, note:

• Does the target appear on page 1? (positions 1-10)
• What position approximately?
• What page/URL ranks?
• Who else ranks for this term? (competitive landscape)

Phase 3: Traffic Estimation

Gather traffic signals from multiple sources:

A) SimilarWeb (free tier)

• WebFetch https://www.similarweb.com/website/[domain]/
• Extract: estimated monthly visits, top traffic sources, geographic distribution, bounce rate

B) Search volume inference

• For keywords where the target ranks well, estimate search volume:
• WebSearch: "[keyword]" search volume or check Google Trends
• High-ranking keywords with high volume = significant organic traffic

C) Social/referral signals

• WebSearch: "[domain]" -site:[domain] — Count and categorize referring sites
• Look for directory listings, review sites, blog mentions, social shares

D) Wayback Machine snapshot frequency

• WebFetch https://web.archive.org/web/*/[domain] — More frequent snapshots often correlate with higher traffic/importance

Phase 4: Backlink & Authority Signals

Estimate domain authority through proxy signals:

• Who links to them? WebSearch: "[domain]" -site:[domain] and categorize sources
• Press mentions: WebSearch: "[company name]" (TechCrunch OR VentureBeat OR Forbes OR "Business Insider")
• Industry recognition: WebSearch: "[company name]" (award OR "named" OR "recognized" OR "leader")
• Directory presence: Check for listings on G2, Capterra, Product Hunt, AlternativeTo, AWS Marketplace

Phase 5: Competitive Comparison

For each competitor domain, repeat a subset of the above analysis:

• site:[competitor] — Indexed pages count
• Check the same target keywords — who ranks where?
• Compare content strategies (blog frequency, topics)

Build a comparison matrix:

| Keyword | [Target] Position | [Competitor 1] | [Competitor 2] | ... |

|---------|-------------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----|

Phase 6: Content Gap Analysis

Identify keywords and topics where competitors rank but the target doesn't:

• For each competitor, run: site:[competitor] [keyword] for keywords where target is absent
• WebSearch for [category] + [topic] and note which competitors appear but target doesn't
• Identify high-value content types competitors have that target lacks:
• Comparison pages ("X vs Y")
• Use case pages
• ROI calculators / interactive tools
• Integration pages
• Customer stories / case studies
• Glossary / educational content

Phase 7: Output

Tips

• Run quarterly per client to track SEO progress
• Brand keyword monitoring is especially important — if competitors bid on your brand, you'll see it
• Content gap analysis directly feeds into content strategy recommendations
• Comparison pages are often the highest-ROI SEO content for B2B SaaS
• This skill works without paid tools but results from tools like Ahrefs/SEMrush will be more precise. If you have access to those, supplement this analysis with their data.
• Combine with industry-scanner to correlate SEO gaps with industry trends
• SimilarWeb free tier is rate-limited — if blocked, fall back to other estimation methods

Limitations

• Traffic estimates are rough approximations without paid tools
• Exact keyword positions can't be determined — only presence/absence on page 1
• Backlink analysis is limited to what's discoverable via web search
• Results may vary by geography and personalization

AI Agent Integration

When using this skill as an agent:

• User provides target domain, optional competitors, optional keywords
• Agent auto-infers relevant keywords from the domain's content if not provided
• Agent runs all phases, collecting data into a structured report
• Agent highlights the most actionable findings
• User decides which gaps to address
• Agent can chain to content creation or sponsored-newsletter-finder for distribution
