Make Better Content Decisions with Real Search Evidence

Move beyond disconnected keyword lists. Use your own Search Console data to decide what to improve, what to create and how each page should support the wider strategy.

Build Topical Authority

Organise real search demand into pillars, subtopics and nested content journeys grounded in Search Console data.

Find Content Opportunities

Surface promising topics, weak rankings, CTR improvement opportunities and gaps worth addressing.

Improve Existing Pages

See when updating an established page is a better choice than creating new content that could compete with it.

Detect Cannibalisation

Find queries where multiple pages may be competing against one another and weakening performance.

Plan Internal Links

Get suggested connections between related sections, including useful anchor text and the rationale for each link.

Create Strategic Briefs

Turn measured findings into structured, evidence-based editorial plans your team can act on.

Manage the Editorial Roadmap

Save ideas, briefs and priorities, then move work through clear editorial workflow stages.

Report and Track Performance

Create client-ready reports and monitor important topics and pages as their search performance changes.

From Search Console Export to Editorial Roadmap

01

Upload your GSC export

Import a Google Search Console performance export to work from your website's real queries and pages.

02

Analyse the evidence

Explore demand, rankings, CTR, page overlap and topical relationships across the imported search data.

03

Build and manage the plan

Create briefs, internal-link recommendations, priorities, reports and a trackable editorial roadmap.

Keep Evidence and AI Hypotheses Distinct

Produce clear reports that distinguish measured Search Console performance from optional AI-generated ideas, so recommendations never masquerade as factual search data.

Analyse queries, pages, clicks, impressions, CTR and rankings
Decide whether to update an existing page or create a new one
Flag potential cannibalisation between competing pages
Create briefs and internal links with supporting rationale
Track priority topics and pages over time
