Troubleshooting

Issue: API Rate Limits

# Check current rate limit status
/check-api-limits

# Adjust crawl delay in config
export CRAWL_DELAY_MS=500  # Increase delay between requests

Issue: Large Site Audits Timeout

# Use batched approach
/content-audit --url https://example.com --batch-size 500 --resume

# Or reduce scope
/content-audit --url https://example.com --scope quick

Issue: Missing Dependencies

# Install required Python packages
pip install ahrefs semrush google-auth-oauthlib pandas beautifulsoup4

# Or use requirements file
pip install -r requirements.txt

Issue: Google Search Console Authentication

# Set up OAuth credentials
export GSC_CREDENTIALS_PATH=/path/to/credentials.json

# Run initial authentication flow
python scripts/authenticate_gsc.py

Issue: Inconsistent Keyword Data

# Use multiple data sources
/keyword-research "keyword" --sources ahrefs,semrush,gsc

# Cross-reference with Google Trends
/keyword-research "keyword" --include-trends

Best Practices

1. Start with Technical Foundation: Always run /technical-seo before content optimization
2. Use Workflows for Complex Projects: Multi-step workflows ensure nothing is missed
3. Export and Track: Use --export-csv or --output json for historical tracking
4. Batch Similar Commands: Group keyword research or content briefs to save API calls
5. Schedule Regular Audits: Run /serp-monitor and /content-audit monthly
6. Combine with Analytics: Cross-reference findings with GA4 and GSC data

Example: Complete SEO Workflow

#!/bin/bash
# Complete SEO optimization workflow

SITE_URL="https://example.com"
NICHE="marketing automation"

# Phase 1: Assessment
echo "Phase 1: Technical and content assessment..."
/technical-seo --url $SITE_URL --checks all --format report > reports/technical-audit.md
/content-audit --url $SITE_URL --scope full --export-csv > reports/content-audit.csv

# Phase 2: Opportunity identification
echo "Phase 2: Finding opportunities..."
/keyword-research "$NICHE" --depth full --output json > data/keywords.json
/competitor-gap --your-site $SITE_URL --competitors competitor1.com,competitor2.com > reports/competitor-gap.md

# Phase 3: Planning
echo "Phase 3: Creating action plan..."
/content-calendar --keywords data/keywords.json --months 6 > plans/content-calendar.md
/link-prospecting --niche "$NICHE" --min-da 50 > plans/link-building.md

# Phase 4: Implementation tracking
echo "Phase 4: Setting up monitoring..."
