30x Seo Plan

SEO Strategy Planning

What This Skill Does

Create SEO strategy: analyze competitors, plan keywords, create content calendar, output implementation roadmap.

Does NOT do:

• Website architecture design → use site-architecture
• Technical SEO checks → use seo-technical
• Content generation → use seo-content-writer

---

Optional Input

Not a hard dependency. You can plan first then research, or research first then plan.

---

Process

Step 1: Discovery

Ask user:

• Business type (SaaS / E-commerce / Local service / Media / Other)
• Target audience (Who are your customers?)
• Main competitors (3-5)
• Goals (Traffic? Conversions? Brand?)
• Existing website? (Yes → analyze current state; No → new site planning)

Step 2: Competitor Analysis

For each competitor, analyze:

Tools: WebFetch + Perplexity

Output: COMPETITOR-ANALYSIS.md

Step 3: Keyword Strategy

If seo-keywords output exists → read and integrate If not → infer from competitor analysis + user input

Determine:

• Core keywords (3-5)
• Long-tail keywords (10-20)
• Topic clusters

Output: Integrate into SEO-STRATEGY.md

Step 4: Content Planning

Based on keyword strategy, plan:

Output: CONTENT-CALENDAR.md

# Content Calendar

## Month 1
| Week | Topic | Target Keyword | Type | Priority |
|------|-------|----------------|------|----------|
| 1 | ... | ... | Pillar | High |
| 2 | ... | ... | Cluster | Medium |

Step 5: Implementation Roadmap

Simplified roadmap:

Output: IMPLEMENTATION-ROADMAP.md

Schema Recommendations

Additional E-commerce Schema (2025)

• ProductGroup: Use for products with variants (size, color). Wraps individual Product entries with variesBy and hasVariant properties. See schema/templates.json.
• Certification: For product certifications (Energy Star, safety, organic). Replaced EnergyConsumptionDetails (April 2025). Use hasCertification on Product.
• OfferShippingDetails: Include shipping rate, handling time, and transit time. Critical for Merchant Center eligibility.

Google Merchant Center Free Listings: Products can appear in Google Shopping for free. Ensure Product structured data is in the initial server-rendered HTML (not JavaScript-injected) with required properties: name, image, price, priceCurrency, availability.

JS Rendering Note: Product structured data should be in initial server-rendered HTML — not dynamically injected via JavaScript (per December 2025 Google JS SEO guidance).

Product Schema Example

{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Product",
  "name": "Product Name",
  "image": ["https://example.com/product.jpg"],
  "description": "Product description",
  "sku": "SKU123",
  "brand": {
    "@type": "Brand",
    "name": "Brand Name"

  },
  "aggregateRating": {
    "@type": "AggregateRating",
    "ratingValue": "4.5",
    "reviewCount": "42"
  }
}

Quality Gates

Location Page Limits

• ⚠️ WARNING at 30+ location pages
• 🛑 HARD STOP at 50+ location pages

Unique Content Requirements

What Makes Location Pages Unique

• Local landmarks and neighborhoods
• Specific services offered at that location
• Local team members
• Location-specific testimonials
• Community involvement
• Local regulations or considerations

Schema Recommendations

LocalBusiness Schema Example

{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "LocalBusiness",
  "name": "Business Name",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "123 Main St",

    "addressRegion": "State",
    "postalCode": "12345"

    "longitude": "-74.0060"
  },
  "areaServed": ["City 1", "City 2"],
  "priceRange": "$$"
}

Google Business Profile Integration

• Ensure NAP consistency (Name, Address, Phone)
• Sync service categories
• Regular post updates
• Photo uploads
• Review response strategy

Google Business Profile Updates (2025-2026)

• Video verification is now standard — postcard verification has been largely phased out. Prepare for a short video verification process showing the business location or service area.
• WhatsApp integration replaced Google Business Chat (deprecated). Businesses can connect WhatsApp as their primary messaging channel.
• Q&A removed from Maps — replaced by AI-generated answers. Ensure your GBP description, services, and website FAQ are comprehensive, as Google AI uses them to answer queries.
• Business hours are a top-5 ranking factor — "Business is open at time of search" ranked as a top individual factor for the first time (Whitespark 2026 Local Search Ranking Factors Report). Keep hours accurate; consider extended hours if feasible.
• Review "Stories" format — Google Maps now shows review snippets in a swipeable Stories format on mobile. Encourage detailed, descriptive reviews with photos.

Service Area Business (SAB) Update (June 2025)

Google updated SAB guidelines to disallow entire states or countries as service areas. SABs must specify: cities, postal/ZIP codes, or neighborhoods. If you serve an entire metro area, list the major cities within it rather than the state.

AI Visibility for Local Businesses

AI Overviews appear for only ~0.14% of local keywords (March 2025 data) — local SEO faces significantly less AI disruption than other verticals. However, ChatGPT and Perplexity are increasingly used for local recommendations.

To optimize for AI local visibility:

• Ensure presence on expert-curated "best of" lists (ranked #1 AI visibility factor in Whitespark 2026 report)
• Maintain consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) across all platforms
• Build genuine review volume and quality
• Use LocalBusiness schema with complete properties (geo, openingHours, priceRange, areaServed)

Content Priorities

High Priority

1. Homepage with clear service area 2. Core service pages 3. Primary city page 4. Contact page with all locations

Medium Priority

1. Service + location combination pages 2. FAQ page 3. About/team page 4. Reviews/testimonials page

Blog Topics

• Seasonal maintenance tips
• How to choose a [service provider]
• Warning signs of [problem]
• DIY vs professional comparisons
• Local regulations and permits

Key Metrics to Track

• Local pack rankings
• Phone call volume from organic
• Direction requests
• Google Business Profile insights
• Reviews count and rating

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for Local

• [ ] Include clear, quotable service descriptions and pricing ranges
• [ ] Use LocalBusiness schema with complete geo, openingHours, and areaServed
• [ ] Build presence on curated "best of" and local directory lists
• [ ] Maintain consistent NAP across all platforms (Google, Yelp, Apple Maps)
• [ ] Include original photos of work, team, and location
• [ ] Structure FAQ content for common local service questions
• [ ] Monitor AI citation in ChatGPT and Perplexity local recommendations

E-E-A-T Requirements

Publishers face highest E-E-A-T scrutiny.

Author Pages Must Include

• Full name and photo
• Bio and credentials
• Areas of expertise
• Contact information
• Social profiles (sameAs)
• Previous articles by this author

Editorial Standards

• Clear correction policy
• Transparent editorial process
• Fact-checking procedures
• Conflict of interest disclosures

Content Priorities

High Priority

1. Breaking news (speed matters) 2. Evergreen guides on core topics 3. Author pages with credentials 4. Topic hubs/pillar pages

Medium Priority

1. Opinion/analysis pieces 2. Video content 3. Interactive content 4. Newsletter landing pages

GEO Considerations

• Clear, quotable facts in articles
• Tables for data-heavy content
• Expert quotes with attribution
• Update dates prominently displayed
• Structured headings (H2/H3)
• First-party data and original research are highly cited by AI systems
• Ensure author entities are clearly defined with Person schema + sameAs links
• Monitor AI citation frequency across Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity
• Treat AI citation as a standalone KPI alongside organic traffic

Publisher SEO Updates (2025-2026)

• Google News automatic inclusion: Google News no longer accepts manual applications (since March 2025). Inclusion is fully automatic based on Google's content quality criteria. Focus on Google News sitemap markup and consistent, high-quality publishing cadence.
• KPI shift: Traffic-based KPIs (sessions, pageviews) are declining in relevance as AI Overviews reduce click-through rates. Leading publishers are shifting to: subscriber conversions, time on page, scroll depth, newsletter signups, AI citation frequency, and revenue per visitor.
• Site reputation abuse risk: Publishers hosting third-party content (coupons, product reviews, affiliate content) under their domain are at high risk. Google penalized Forbes, WSJ, Time, and CNN for this in late 2024. If hosting third-party content, ensure strong editorial oversight and clear first-party involvement.

Technical Considerations

Core Web Vitals

• Ad placement affects CLS
• Lazy load ads and images below fold
• Optimize hero images for LCP
• Minimize render-blocking resources

AMP (if used)

• Consider dropping AMP (no longer required for Top Stories)
• Ensure canonical setup is correct
• Monitor performance vs non-AMP

Pagination

• Proper pagination for multi-page articles
• Or infinite scroll with proper indexing
• Canonical to page 1 or full article

Key Metrics to Track

• Page views from organic
• Time on page
• Pages per session
• Newsletter signups from organic
• Google News/Discover traffic
• AI Overview appearances

Content Priorities

High Priority Pages

1. Homepage (value proposition, social proof) 2. Features overview 3. Pricing page 4. Key integrations 5. Top 3-5 use case pages

Medium Priority Pages

1. Individual feature pages 2. Industry solution pages 3. Case studies (2-3 detailed ones) 4. Comparison pages (vs competitors)

Content Marketing Focus

1. Bottom-of-funnel: Comparison guides, ROI calculators 2. Middle-of-funnel: How-to guides, best practices 3. Top-of-funnel: Industry trends, educational content

Schema Recommendations

Key Metrics to Track

• Organic traffic to pricing page
• Demo/trial signups from organic
• Blog → pricing page conversion
• Comparison page rankings
• Integration page performance

Comparison & Alternative Pages

Comparison pages are among the highest-converting content types for SaaS, with conversion rates of 4-7% vs. 0.5-1.8% for standard blog content (35.8% of marketers report comparison content performs "better than ever" per Intergrowth November 2025 survey).

Recommended page types:

• /{product}-vs-{competitor} — Direct 1:1 comparison
• /{competitor}-alternative — Targeting competitor brand searches
• /compare/{category} — Category comparison hub
• /best-{category}-tools — Roundup-style pages

Best practices:

• Include structured comparison tables with pricing, features, pros/cons
• Be factually accurate about competitors — verify claims regularly
• Include customer testimonials from users who switched
• Add FAQ schema for common comparison questions (valuable for AI search)
• Update regularly — stale comparison data damages credibility
• Cross-reference the seo-competitor-pages skill for detailed frameworks

Legal considerations:

• Nominative fair use generally permits competitor brand mentions for comparison purposes
• Do NOT imply endorsement or affiliation
• Do NOT make false or unverifiable claims about competitor products
• Different jurisdictions have different trademark laws — consult legal counsel

Competitive Considerations

• Monitor competitor feature releases
• Track competitor content strategies
• Identify keyword gaps in feature coverage
• Watch for new comparison opportunities

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for SaaS

• [ ] Include clear, structured feature comparisons that AI systems can parse and cite
• [ ] Use SoftwareApplication schema with complete feature lists and pricing
• [ ] Publish original benchmark data, case studies, and ROI metrics
• [ ] Build content clusters around key product categories and use cases
• [ ] Ensure integration pages have clear, quotable descriptions
• [ ] Structure pricing information in tables AI can extract
• [ ] Monitor AI citation across Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity
