seo-strategy

Skill1 starsChanged 30 days agoMITView on GitHub

Builds SEO strategy and new angles: playbooks by site stage and type (new domain, comparison site, local, publisher, SaaS, YMYL, multi-locale), a register of out-of-the-box ideas each with mechanism, evidence label, per-engine policy check and test recipe, and a catalogue of official docs, tools and datasets. Use for "SEO roadmap", "where do we start", "creative SEO ideas", "best SEO tools". Not for auditing a page (seo-optimizer).

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 10 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Never forecast a published number onto a client site.

    line 14
  2. Very specific:

    No rollout without a pre-declared revert rule (applicability, holdout, what stays fixed, metric + window, trigger).

    line 15
  3. Distinctive:

    Every playbook step carries an evidence label and passes the policy gate before it is planned.

    line 43
  4. Distinctive:

    No traffic forecast from published numbers.

    line 46

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 10 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

seo-strategy

Where to start, in what order, which engines matter per market, and which new ideas are worth a test.

<!-- grammar-excerpt -->

Label every tactic with one of the 9 marks: [documented: <URL>, <date>] · [documented-secondary: …] · [unverified: …] · [measured: MARK, n=S, c=C] · [practitioner: anonymised sources · …] · [hypothesis] · [vendor] · [memory] · [unvalidated house heuristic]. Numbers keep their denominator; marks are counts, not verdicts; bundles support direction, not size. Never forecast a published number onto a client site; only the client's own GSC demand and funnel forecast. No rollout without a pre-declared revert rule (applicability, holdout, what stays fixed, metric + window, trigger). Repetition never proves; full grammar: skill seo-optimizer § Evidence marks.

<!-- /grammar-excerpt -->

Load rule

Open one reference per load-when row the question touches (a "by H2" row: only the part holding that H2); never a file "to be thorough". A pointer into another seo- skill's file is a citation: quote it, or first load that skill's SKILL.md and open the file through its own load-when row. Engine pages, ledger and practitioner parts and the crawler registry are lookup-only.

Rules

  1. Every playbook step carries an evidence label and passes the policy gate before it is planned.
  2. An idea row is a hypothesis with a test recipe and a kill condition, never a promise.
  3. Banned tactics appear only under "Tempting, and banned", with the policy cite and its condition; a refusal stricter than the policy is marked as a house rule.
  4. No traffic forecast from published numbers; only from the client's own demand data.
  5. Market share and engine reach are stated only with a dated source.
