- As SEOs, we tend to jump straight into identifying target keywords and trying to understand the competitive landscape. In that process, we miss out on the bigger picture. All too often stakeholder interviews and discovery meetings fall short of capturing the insights needed to produce the kind of content that will resonate with a businesses target audience.
- Often we rush out to collect content and conduct competitive research without fully understanding the customer / clients business goals. Here are some key questions you should ask at a stakeholder meeting. Customers1. Define typical buyer.2. What are the pain points of that buyer?3. What content do they need to help them along their purchase decision?Competitors4. Who are top 5 competitors and why / how do they beat you?5. What are your competitors' major strengths and weaknesses? How do you take advantage of their weaknesses?6. Why do customers choose your products over a competitor’s?7. Where are your products weaker or more limited than your competitors’? Marketing8. Describe existing branding / marketing campaigns9. What message do they want to impart on their audience10. What are your major marketing opportunities in the next 1-5 years?Sales11. What does the sales process look like? Can you describe the whole cycle: how a lead comes in, what happens after that, what the lead nurturing and pre-sales process looks like, and what happens next when a customer decides to buy?12. What are your 3 biggest sales challenges? Products / Services13. Why do customers choose your products over a competitor’s?14. Where are your products weaker or more limited than your competitors’? Strategy15. How do you see your market changing in the next 3-5 years?16. If you do it right, what does success look like to you over the next five years?

- TRACK ALL THE THINGSSocial SharesBacklinksDate PublishedDependenciesTaxonomyOwnerStatus OUCH status O = Out-of-date. Content that is still useful and will move to the new site, but should be updated. U = Unnecessary. Content that is not needed at all. It should not be moved to the new site. C = Current. Content that is fine as is, up-to-date, and just needs to be moved to the new site.H = Have to write. H will not be used on your first pass of the content inventory, so nothing on the inventory of the current site should be marked H. H will be used for the gap analysis part of the exercise below.
