SEO Opportunity Finder

Identify the highest-leverage content gaps between your site and competitors. Combines a crawl of your existing content with competitor keyword/traffic analysis to surface a prioritized list of posts worth writing.

Core principle: Don't start from a blank keyword list. Start by knowing what you have, then find what competitors have that you don't — and pick the gaps most likely to convert.

When to Use

• "Find SEO content gaps vs our competitors"
• "What topics should we write about to rank?"
• "We're starting a blog — where should we focus first?"
• "What keywords are [competitor] ranking for that we're missing?"

Phase 0: Intake

1. Your website URL (e.g., https://yourcompany.com)
2. 2-3 competitor URLs to compare against
3. Primary ICP — who are you trying to attract? (This filters for commercial intent vs. general traffic)
4. Any topics/keyword themes that are definitely in scope? (Optional — helps prioritize output)

Phase 1: Catalog Your Existing Content

Build an inventory of the target site's current pages and posts:

1. Fetch sitemap.xml (check /sitemap.xml, /sitemap_index.xml, robots.txt for Sitemap: directives)
2. Fall back to RSS feeds (/feed, /blog/feed) or blog index crawl if no sitemap
3. Extract: all blog post titles and URLs, inferred topics/themes per post, estimated content age

This prevents recommending content you've already written.

Phase 2: Analyze Competitor SEO Footprint

For each competitor domain, pull SEO metrics:

1. Domain overview — authority score, organic traffic estimate, top ranking keywords (via Apify Semrush scraper if APIFY_API_TOKEN is set)
2. Top pages — highest-traffic pages and their primary keywords
3. Keyword categories — which topic clusters they're winning in

If Apify data is limited, supplement with web search probes:

• site:[competitor] for indexed page count
• Search target keywords and note which competitors rank where
• SimilarWeb free tier for traffic estimates

Phase 3: Identify Gaps

Compare your content inventory (Phase 1) against competitor keyword/topic coverage (Phase 2):

Gap Classification

Commercial Intent Filter

For each gap topic, score commercial intent (1-5):

• 5 — Directly maps to your product (e.g., "best AI SDR tools for startups")
• 4 — Problem-aware but not product-specific (e.g., "how to scale outbound SDR")
• 3 — Adjacent pain point (e.g., "cold email open rates benchmark 2026")
• 2 — Educational, tangential (e.g., "what is lead scoring")
• 1 — Generic traffic, low conversion potential

Prioritize gaps with score ≥ 3.

Phase 4: Synthesize & Output

Produce a prioritized opportunity table + editorial brief starters:
