🆕 Best opportunities with Content Audit
Keeping a watchful eye on your domain's performance is essential for staying ahead of potential issues and maintaining optimal SEO health. And with Surfer's Content Audit, it's easier than ever 👇
Content Audit helps you uncover the best opportunities within your existing content to boost your search rankings long after you hit ‘publish’. It analyzes your content and extracts essential metrics from SERPs and your GSC (such as position, CTR or traffic) and combines all that with Content Scores. From there, it suggests the best opportunities that are most likely to have a positive impact on your SEO strategy and are easy to re-optimize in Content Editor or with the Auto-Optimize feature. Finally, it monitors your content performance through the GSC integration daily (position, traffic, and impressions) and alerts you when it requires attention.
🔑 Deeper Insights into Topical Authority
Understanding the topical authority of your website is crucial for building a strong online presence. Surfer's Topical Map tool is designed to provide insights into the relevance and authority of topics on your website. By connecting GSC, Surfer can enrich your topical authority suggestions with valuable data regarding the keywords and topics your site already ranks for. This integration enhances the Topical Map tool's accuracy, enabling you to identify gaps in content, optimize for relevant topics, and solidify your domain's authority in your niche.
📖 Performance of Posts Directly in WordPress
If you're using Surfer's WordPress plugin, you can benefit from a seamless integration of all three platforms: Surfer, WordPress, and Google Search Console. One of the biggest advantages of this integration is that you can not only track your post's performance on the posts list but also, when needing adjustments, you can choose to improve them using Surfer (directly in your WordPress!). You can track impressions, clicks, and ranking positions and choose to get a monthly summary sent to your email.
🧵No Strings Attached
You can integrate as many Google Search Consoles as you want and disconnect them whenever you no longer need them. We need a view-only mode of your statistics and we use the data only to improve your Surfer experience.
