In this article, you can learn more about the different components of the content editor including:

To successfully finalize your writing, hit the optimal terms usage and number of structural elements, like paragraphs, headings, words, and images.

Content Score is a value from 1 to 100 which describes the relevance and quality of your content. Get an overall sense of your optimization level and how much work is left. You can improve your Content Score by optimizing content structure and terms in your writing.

A score below 33 means your content is not optimized enough. You probably need to add more text and optimize important terms.

A score between 33 and 66 means your content is optimized quite well. At this stage, you should have most of your work done.

A score over 66 means your content is ready-to-go. You should aim at the highest CS however anything over 66 indicates a decent optimization.

It's usually impossible to get a 100 Content Score. If you make any changes in the customization panel, this may affect your maximum achievable score. Sometimes it's better to use your common sense and keep your Content Score 90 than to try to get the highest score. Such an approach may damage your final work!

The best part? Hit the tab button and we'll fill it in for you, which means less looking at the keywords to use and more actual writing.
