Content Quality (E-E-A-T 2026)

Content Intelligence Workflow

Before content recommendations, run scripts/analyze-keywords.ts (local-first, no API key). Use it as first-pass evidence for keyword distribution, semantic breadth, local modifier placement, heading coverage, and stuffing risk.

bun run scripts/analyze-keywords.ts <url-or-path> --keyword "<primary keyword>" --synonyms "<syn1,syn2>" --locations "<city1,city2>" --format markdown

It returns density, n-grams, a 0-100 stuffing score, heading coverage, and per-location contextual mentions — purely local HTML parsing.

E-E-A-T Pillars

• Experience: First-hand knowledge signals (case studies, photos, "I tried...")
• Expertise: Author credentials, depth, technical accuracy
• Authoritativeness: Industry recognition, citations, backlinks
• Trustworthiness: Contact info, HTTPS, transparent ownership, fact-checking

Anti-Cannibalization

• One primary keyword per URL
• Different search intents per page (info / navigational / transactional)
• Internal linking respects pillar/cluster topology

Metadata and Heading Rules

• Meta title must be 60 characters or less.
• Meta description must be 150 characters or less.
• Do not include the company or brand name in the meta title unless the client explicitly asks. If needed, present a branded title as an option or exception.
• Meta title and H1 should be semantically similar, but not necessarily identical.
• Meta title and H1 need the primary keyword or a strong variant.
• H2/H3 headings distribute synonyms, long-tail phrases, questions, and sub-intents.
• Avoid repeating the exact keyword across every heading.

Local Semantic Distribution

• The client's target localities (primary [city] + neighbouring municipalities/[region]) must appear naturally near service terms, never as a dumped city list.
• Prefer sentence-level relevance such as [service] + [city] + proof or context.
• On a LOCAL page, alternate [city] with [region] and district/neighbourhood names instead of repeating the same city token.

Keyword Distribution by Zone

Place terms by page zone, not by hitting a density target. Anti-stuffing 2026 is multi-signal, not a fixed percentage (Google's leaked KeywordStuffingScore runs 0-127; risk rises past ~3% density).

Zone	Primary [service]	Local modifier [city]/[region]	Synonyms + entities	Secondary terms
Title / H1	Yes (exact or strong variant)	Local page only	—	—
H2 / H3	Sparingly (1-2)	Local page only, varied	Yes (distribute)	Yes
First 100 words / answer capsule	Yes (once)	Local page: once	Yes	—
Body	Natural flow	Local page: spread	Yes (bulk of coverage)	Yes
Anchors / alt / meta	Variant	Geo-specific on local	Yes	—

Reference counts for a 1000-1500 word page:

• Primary [service]: 5-8 occurrences (~1-1.5% — the sweet spot, never above ~3%).
• Semantic family (synonyms + named entities): 12-18 occurrences — this carries topical depth, not exact repetition.
• Local modifier [city]/[region]: 4-6 occurrences on a LOCAL page; 1-2 mentions on a GLOBAL page (zone signal, not stuffing). On the local page, rotate [city] with [region]/district rather than repeating one city.

Keyword Stuffing Detection

Do not use a fixed >3% density threshold as the stuffing rule. Flag keyword stuffing only when multiple signals align:

• Exact keyword repetition
• Repeated n-grams
• Repeated local modifiers
• Low semantic diversity
• Thin content
• Unnatural heading, anchor, or paragraph placement

scripts/analyze-keywords.ts computes these signals into a 0-100 stuffing score.

Copywriting 2026 (citation-eligible writing)

• Answer capsule per H2: open every H2 with a self-contained 40-60 word answer, not only the page's first 100 words. AI Overviews and LLMs extract per-section; each H2 must stand alone as a quotable verbatim answer.
• Hyperlinked statistics: one statistic linked to its primary source every 150-200 words. Naked or undated stats are not citation-eligible.
• Named entities, not pronouns: name key entities explicitly (product, person, place, organization) instead of "it", "they", "this tool". LLMs disambiguate by surface entity mentions, not coreference.
• Keep the anti-AI-slop tone: no "In conclusion...", "It's important to note...", no marketing filler.

AI Content Guidelines

• Disclose AI-assisted content where required
• Human review + first-hand experience injected
• Avoid generic AI-typical structures ("In conclusion...", "It's important to note...")

Entities and Semantics

For entity-based optimization (knowledge graph alignment, sameAs, entity salience, semantic depth), use the seo-entity skill. Anchor each page to a primary entity and its attributes rather than to a keyword string alone.
