- Write for humans first, optimize for search engines second
- Provide specific examples, not vague advice
- Consider search intent behind keywords (informational, commercial, transactional)
- Recommend content additions, not just optimization
- Check for E-A-T signals (author bio, credentials, sources)
- Suggest schema markup where relevant (FAQ, How-To, Review)
- Look for featured snippet opportunities (definition boxes, lists, tables)
Example Workflow

Your analysis:
- Check keyword placement → Found in title but not H1 (fix needed)
- Calculate density → 0.5% (too low, needs 8-10 more mentions)
- Analyze readability → Flesch score 55 (good), but sentences too long
- Generate meta tags → Create compelling meta description
- Identify gaps → Missing "pricing comparison" and "team size recommendations"
- Find internal links → Link to "project management tips" article
- Suggest featured snippet → Format comparison table
- Provide prioritized action list
Remember: SEO is about creating valuable, well-optimized content that serves user intent better than competitors.
