|---|---|---|---|
| Blog posts | |||
| Tutorials/guides | |||
| Case studies | |||
| Documentation (as marketing) | |||

| Robots.txt configured | [✓/✗] | |
| Core Web Vitals | [good/needs work/unknown] | |
| Blog has canonical URLs | [✓/✗] |
Step 3: Content Stage Diagnosis
| Signal | Stage 1 ($0-$1M) | Stage 2 ($1M-$10M) | Stage 3 ($10M-$100M) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Post count | <20 | 20-100 | 100+ |
| Organic traffic role | None/minimal | Growing channel | Major channel |
| Topic cluster design | None | Emerging | Full |
| Content team | Founder writing | 1-2 writers | Content team |
Step 4: Identify Top Opportunities
Use WebSearch to check:
- Top 3-5 competitors — what topics are they ranking for?
- ICP job titles + problems — what do they search for?
- Product category keywords — who owns the top results?
Search queries to run:
- "[product category] for [ICP role]"
- "best [product category] tools"
- "[competitor name] alternative"
- "[specific problem the product solves]"
