How to Use This Skill
Input format:
WEBSITE URL: [Your website]
CMS: [WordPress / Webflow / Squarespace / Shopify / Custom]
NICHE: [Your industry]
TARGET LOCATION: [Local / National / Global]
PRIORITY PAGES: [Homepage / Service pages / Blog / Product pages]
CURRENT ISSUES: [Known issues or "unknown — need full audit"]
GOAL: [Rank for specific keywords / Improve existing rankings / Fix technical issues]
Phase 1: Page-Level Optimization
Title Tag Optimization
Formula: Primary Keyword — Secondary Keyword | Brand Name
Rules:
- 50-60 characters maximum
- Primary keyword as close to the beginning as possible
- Each page must have a UNIQUE title
- Make it compelling for humans, not just crawlers
Bad: "Home | Company Name"
Good: "Personal Training Rotterdam — 1-on-1 Coaching | Brand Name"
Meta Description Optimization
Formula: [Benefit] + [Primary keyword] + [CTA]
Rules:
- 150-160 characters
- Include primary keyword naturally
- Include a call-to-action
- Each page must have a UNIQUE meta description
- Think of it as a micro-ad for your page in search results
Prompt to generate:
"Write a meta description for a [PAGE TYPE] page about [TOPIC] for [BRAND NAME].
Primary keyword: [KEYWORD]. Audience: [AUDIENCE].
Max 155 characters. Include a benefit + soft CTA."
Header Structure (H1-H6)
Rules:
- ONE H1 per page — contains primary keyword
- H2s: section headers — contain secondary/LSI keywords
- H3s: subsections
- Never skip levels (don't go H1 → H3)
- Headers should describe the content below them accurately
Audit prompt:
"Review the heading structure of this page: [paste page content]
Identify: missing H1, keyword opportunities in headers, hierarchy issues."
Content Optimization
On-Page Content Checklist:
- [ ] Primary keyword in first 100 words
- [ ] Primary keyword appears naturally throughout (1-2% density)
- [ ] LSI keywords (related terms) used throughout
- [ ] Minimum 300 words for service pages, 800+ for blog posts
- [ ] Content answers the search intent (informational/commercial/navigational)
- [ ] Internal links to 2-3 relevant pages on your site
- [ ] External link to 1 authoritative source
- [ ] All images have descriptive alt text
Content optimization prompt:
"Optimize this content for the keyword [KEYWORD]:
[Paste your existing content]
Suggest: where to add the keyword naturally, missing LSI terms,
structural improvements, and any thin content sections to expand."
Phase 2: Technical SEO Essentials

URL Structure Best Practices
Good URL structure:
yoursite.com/service/keyword-based-page-name
yoursite.com/blog/topic-keyword-post-title
Bad URL structure:
yoursite.com/page?id=123
yoursite.com/2024/01/01/blog/post
yoursite.com/my-awesome-service-page-click-here
Rules:
- Use hyphens (-) not underscores (_)
- Lowercase only
- Include primary keyword
- Remove stop words (the, a, and, or) where possible
- Keep it short — under 60 characters ideal
Phase 3: Schema Markup
Schema markup tells search engines exactly what your content means, enabling rich snippets.
Most Valuable Schema Types
Local Business (for location-based businesses):
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "LocalBusiness",
"name": "[Business Name]",
"address": {
"@type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "[Street]",
"addressLocality": "[City]",
"postalCode": "[Code]",
"addressCountry": "[Country Code]"
},
"telephone": "[Phone]",
"url": "[Website URL]",
"openingHours": ["Mo-Fr 09:00-17:00"],
"priceRange": "$$"
}
Article/Blog Post:
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "Article",
"headline": "[Post Title]",
"author": {"@type": "Person", "name": "[Author Name]"},
"datePublished": "[ISO Date]",
"description": "[Meta Description]"
}
FAQ (for Q&A sections):
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "FAQPage",
"mainEntity": [{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "[Question text]",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "[Answer text]"
}
}]
}
Schema generation prompt:
Generate [SCHEMA TYPE] schema markup for [BUSINESS NAME].
Details: [provide business details, page content, or FAQ content]
Output: valid JSON-LD format ready to add to the page <head>
Phase 4: Internal Linking Strategy
Internal links distribute page authority and help users navigate your site.
Hub and Spoke Model:
PILLAR PAGE (broad topic) → linked to by all related pages
CLUSTER PAGES (specific subtopics) → each links back to pillar page
Example:
Pillar: "Ultimate Guide to [Your Service]"
Clusters:
- "[Specific aspect 1] Explained"
- "How to [specific task] — Step by Step"
- "[Topic] for Beginners"
- "[Advanced topic] Guide"
Internal linking rules:
- Link from high-traffic pages to pages you want to rank
- Use descriptive anchor text (not "click here" or "read more")
- Add 2-3 internal links per new page or post
- Audit broken internal links quarterly
Phase 5: Ongoing SEO Monitoring
Monthly SEO Audit Checklist
RANKING:
- [ ] Check Google Search Console for position changes
- [ ] Identify keywords dropped — investigate why
- [ ] Find new keyword opportunities from "Queries" report
TECHNICAL:
