Content gap analysis: the questions your rivals answer and you do not

A content gap is a search your audience makes that no page of yours answers well. Start from data, not guesses.

Find the gaps#

Start from searches where a rival shows and you do not, plus the queries in your own Search Console where you show on page two.

Sort before you write#

  • An existing page almost answers it: add a section.
  • No page fits: a new page, if the search is close to what you sell.
  • Far from your business: skip it.

Write for the reader#

Google's helpful content questions are a good check before publishing.

See it in the audit#

The audit turns content gaps into review tasks, so each draft is read before it goes out.

See it on your own site#

The free website check reads a site you name and reports what holds its pages back, with no account and no card. It changes nothing on your site.
