SEO-AEO Blog Writer

Selective Reading Rule

Start with:

• references/senior-master-standard.md
• references/usage-routing.md
• references/quality-checklist.md

Then load only the inherited docs, scripts, assets, or examples that match the user's actual task.

Overview

Writes structured long-form blog posts (800–3000 words) that satisfy both SEO ranking signals and AEO citation requirements. Every post includes a TL;DR direct-answer block, a definition sentence, structured H2/H3 hierarchy, a comparison table where relevant, and exactly 5 FAQ entries written for AI extraction.

Part of the SEO-AEO Engine.

When to Use This Skill

• Use when writing a cluster article from a content cluster map
• Use when creating a long-form guide to build topical authority
• Use when you need content that can be cited by AI engines like Perplexity or ChatGPT
• Use when you need a blog post that follows a consistent, auditable structure

How It Works

Step 1: Write the TL;DR Block First

Write a 2–3 sentence direct answer to the article's core question. Place it immediately after the H1 in a blockquote. This is the first block AI engines attempt to extract.

Step 2: Build the Heading Skeleton

Set H1, H2s (4–6), and H3s before writing any body content. The first H2 must be a "What Is" section with a clean definition sentence as its opening line.

Step 3: Write Body Sections

Follow the section order: What Is → Why It Matters → How It Works (with H3 sub-concepts) → Practical Steps → Common Mistakes → FAQ → Conclusion.

Step 4: Write 5 FAQ Entries

Use long-tail and secondary keywords as questions. Each answer must be under 50 words and self-contained — readable without any surrounding context.

Step 5: Run AEO and SEO Checklists

Verify TL;DR presence, definition sentence, FAQ count, keyword placement, and heading structure before outputting.

Examples

Example: TL;DR Block

How to Manage a Remote Engineering Team

TL;DR: Managing a remote engineering team requires async communication tools, clear documentation standards, and timezone-aware sprint planning. Teams that nail these three areas ship consistently regardless of where members are located.

Example: FAQ Section

Q: What is the biggest challenge of remote engineering teams? A: Async communication. Without shared hours, decisions slow down and context gets lost. Teams that document decisions in writing and use structured standup tools close this gap fastest. Q: How do you run a daily standup with a remote team? A: Use async video or text standups posted at the start of each member's day. Tools like Loom or Slack threads work well. Avoid live calls across more than 2 timezones.

Best Practices

• ✅ Do: Write the TL;DR block before writing anything else — it anchors the article
• ✅ Do: Make the "What Is" definition sentence extractable on its own — one clean sentence
• ✅ Do: Use secondary keywords as FAQ questions to capture long-tail traffic
• ❌ Don't: Write FAQ answers longer than 50 words — AI engines skip long answers
• ❌ Don't: Use duplicate H2 headings anywhere in the article
• ❌ Don't: Skip the comparison table if the topic involves comparing options

Common Pitfalls

• Problem: TL;DR block is too vague to be extracted as a direct answer Solution: The TL;DR must answer the article's core question in 2–3 sentences. If it doesn't answer a specific question, rewrite it.

• Problem: FAQ answers reference "as mentioned above" or other context Solution: Every FAQ answer must stand completely alone — no references to other parts of the article.
