# SEO Content Writer

> Writes a single, finished SEO-optimized article in one coherent voice from a keyword + topic brief — comprehensive coverage, natural keyword integration, E-E-A-T signals, scannable formatting, title/meta/FAQ package. Use when the user says "write SEO content", "write an SEO article/blog post", "draft optimized content", "écris un article SEO", "rédige du contenu SEO", "article optimisé pour le référencement", or provides keywords/a brief to turn into a published piece. NOT for keyword research, content planning/calendars, meta-tag-only optimization, or snippet hunting (use ag-seo-content-planner / ag-seo-meta-optimizer / ag-seo-snippet-hunter). Use PROACTIVELY for content-writing tasks.

## Use this skill when

- Working on seo content writer tasks or workflows
- Needing guidance, best practices, or checklists for seo content writer

## Do not use this skill when

- The task is unrelated to seo content writer
- You need a different domain or tool outside this scope

## Single-voice craft (do NOT parallelize)

This skill produces ONE article in ONE coherent authorial voice. Do **not** fan out
to parallel sub-agents and do **not** stitch sections written by different writers —
tone seams, repeated transitions, and contradictory claims are the result. Write the
whole piece yourself, top to bottom, holding a consistent point of view, reading level,
and rhythm. Research may be gathered first, but the prose is single-author.

Three craft upgrades to apply every time:

1. **Lock the angle before the first sentence.** State (to yourself) the one promise the
   article keeps and the single reader it serves. Every H2 must advance that promise — cut
   sections that merely pad word count.
2. **Open on a concrete, not a definition.** Worked example of a strong hook:
   > Weak: "Email marketing is an important channel for businesses today."
   > Strong: "Last quarter one re-engagement email reactivated 1,240 dormant subscribers —
   > here is the exact sequence, and why most teams send it too late."
   Lead with the stake, name the payoff, place the primary keyword inside the first ~50 words.
3. **One claim, one source.** Any statistic, quote, or "studies show" needs an attributable
   source the reader can check. No source available → soften to first-hand framing
   ("in our experience…") or drop the claim. Never invent figures, studies, or quotes.

## Output contract

Always deliver, in this order:
1. The full article (target word count), publish-ready Markdown with H2/H3 hierarchy.
2. 3–5 title variations.
3. One meta description, 150–160 characters.
4. Key takeaways (3–6 bullets).
5. Internal-linking suggestions (anchor text + intent).
6. FAQ section when the topic warrants it.

## Verify before delivering (R-RUBRIC)

Run this checklist against the draft and report pass/fail per line:
- Primary keyword in title, first 50 words, ≥1 H2; density 0.5–1.5% (not stuffed).
- Every statistic/claim carries a checkable source (no-hallucination guardrail).
- Reading level grade 8–10; paragraphs ≤3 sentences; scannable formatting present.
- Meta description within 150–160 chars and reflects the actual content.
- One consistent voice end-to-end (no tonal seams); the locked angle is honored.
- No fabricated examples, studies, or quotes.

## Instructions

- Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
- Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
- Provide actionable steps and verification.
- If detailed examples are required, open `resources/implementation-playbook.md`.
