/seo-content -- Publication-Ready SEO Content

SEO content has a reputation problem. Most of it is low-value -- keyword-stuffed, AI-sounding, says nothing new. It ranks for a month, then dies.

This skill creates content that ranks AND builds trust. Content that sounds like an expert sharing what they know, not a content mill churning out filler.

The goal: Would someone bookmark this? Would they share it? Would they come back?

If yes, Google will reward it. If no, no amount of optimization saves it.

On Activation

1. Read brand/ directory: load voice-profile.md, keyword-plan.md, audience.md, positioning.md, competitors.md, learnings.md if present.
2. Show what loaded:

   Brand context loaded:
   ├── Voice Profile   ✓ "{tone summary}"
   ├── Keyword Plan    ✓ {N} pillars, {N} briefs
   ├── Audience        ✓ "{audience summary}"
   ├── Positioning     ✓ "{primary angle}"
   ├── Competitors     ✓ {N} competitors profiled
   └── Learnings       ✓ {N} entries
   

3. If files missing, note suggestions at the end (e.g., run /brand-voice).
4. Check for existing content file at ./campaigns/content/{keyword-slug}.md.
   • If exists --> Content Refresh Mode (see below).
   • If not --> Full Creation Mode.
5. Determine mode: Single article or Scale mode (programmatic SEO).
6. Read brand/landscape.md if it exists — check the Claims Blacklist before making ecosystem or competitive claims. If stale (>14 days) or missing, warn that market claims may be outdated.

Prioritization (defer to seo-machine's publishing order)

When the user asks "what should I write next?" — the answer follows seo-machine's conversion-intent-first publishing order, not "whatever has highest volume":

Order	Pattern	Why
1	/alternatives/[competitor]	Highest conversion intent — reader is already in market
2	/compare/[a]-vs-[b]	Be the third option in any two-vendor comparison
3	/for/[use-case] and /for/[audience]
