SEO Priority Score

Overview

Given a list of potential SEO tasks (from any Diagnose skill), score each one on a standardized framework and produce a ranked priority list.

Inputs

  • List of SEO tasks or opportunities with supporting data
  • Optional: business context (revenue per visitor, conversion rates, margins)

Workflow

  1. For each task, collect or estimate:
    • Impact: traffic, conversion, or revenue potential (scale 1-10)
    • Confidence: how reliable the signal is (scale 1-5)
    • Effort: hours or cost to implement (scale 1-5, inverted)
    • Authority feasibility: can the site realistically compete (scale 1-5)
    • Revenue proximity: how directly this affects pipeline (scale 1-5)
  2. Calculate a composite priority score: (Impact × Confidence) / (Effort × Authority gap) with revenue proximity as a multiplier.
  3. Group tasks by effort band: quick wins (< 4 hours), medium projects (4-20 hours), strategic initiatives (20+ hours).
  4. Output a sorted priority list with the score breakdown.

Output

Ranked task list with priority score, breakdown, and effort band.
