SEO Audit

Conduct a comprehensive SEO audit for "$ARGUMENTS". Analyze technical SEO, on-page optimization, and content gaps to identify improvement opportunities.

Prerequisites

Read .metapowers/marketing/$ARGUMENTS/00-strategy.md. If this file does not exist, tell the user:

Phase 0 (Strategy) has not been completed for "$ARGUMENTS". Run /marketing:customer-research $ARGUMENTS first, or use --skip-checks to bypass.

If --skip-checks is present in $ARGUMENTS, skip this check and log to .metapowers/marketing/$ARGUMENTS/skip-log.md.

Process

1. Read context:

   • Read .metapowers/marketing/$ARGUMENTS/00-strategy.md for audience and competitor data
   • Read plugins/marketing/shared/seo-checklist.md for the audit framework
   • Read plugins/marketing/shared/race-framework-guide.md for Reach phase guidance

2. Technical SEO analysis:

   • If a URL is provided, use WebFetch to analyze the site
   • Check against the technical SEO checklist: site speed, mobile-friendliness, HTTPS, sitemaps, robots.txt
   • Identify crawlability and indexability issues
   • Check Core Web Vitals status

3. On-page SEO analysis:

   • Evaluate title tags, meta descriptions, heading structure
   • Check keyword usage and content optimization
   • Analyze internal linking structure
   • Review image optimization (alt text, file size, format)

4. Content gap analysis:

   • Use WebSearch to identify high-value keywords competitors rank for
   • Find "low-hanging fruit" — keywords with search volume and low competition
   • Map content gaps to content pillars (if content-strategy has been run)

5. Prioritize recommendations:

   • Score each issue by impact (traffic potential) and effort (implementation difficulty)
   • Create a prioritized action list: quick wins first, then strategic investments
   • Estimate traffic impact of top recommendations

6. Write the artifact — append to .metapowers/marketing/$ARGUMENTS/01-reach.md under a ## SEO Audit section:

   • Technical SEO — issues found, severity, fix recommendations
   • On-Page SEO — optimization gaps per page
   • Content Gaps — keyword opportunities with search volume estimates
   • Prioritized Action Plan — ranked by impact/effort
   • Estimated Impact — traffic potential of top fixes

Output

SEO audit appended to .metapowers/marketing/$ARGUMENTS/01-reach.md. Present a summary highlighting:

• Critical technical issues (if any)
• Top 5 keyword opportunities
