## Keyword Research

Go to **SEO → Keyword Research** to discover what your ideal customers are searching for.

Enter a seed keyword, select your target country, and click **Analyze Keyword**. GTM Suite pulls live data from Google and Bing and returns:

**Primary metrics:**

| Metric            | Description                             |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------- |
| **Search Volume** | Average monthly searches                |
| **CPC**           | Cost per click in USD                   |
| **Competition**   | Low / Medium / High competitive density |

**Search Trend Chart** — Area chart showing monthly search volume over the past 12 months with a trend percentage indicator.

**Related Keywords table** — Sortable list of related terms with volume, CPC, and competition. Save any keyword to your library with a single click, or export all results as CSV.

**SERP Analysis table** — The current top-ranking pages for the keyword, including domain, title, and a direct link to each result.

### Saving & Classifying Keywords

Saved keywords are tagged with a **search intent type**:

| Intent            | Meaning                                     |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Commercial**    | Researching products/services before buying |
| **Transactional** | Ready to take action or purchase            |
| **Informational** | Looking for answers or education            |
| **Consideration** | Comparing options                           |

Keywords can also be linked to an **ICP Profile** to keep your keyword strategy aligned with your buyer personas.

***

## Saved Keywords

Go to **SEO → Saved Keywords** to manage your keyword library across the workspace.

The table shows all saved keywords with volume, CPC, competition, intent type, and saved date. You can:

* **Search** by keyword name
* **Filter** by intent type or ICP profile
* **Sort** by any column
* **Update intent** for any keyword inline
* **Bulk delete** with multi-select

***

## Copy Optimizer

Go to **SEO → Copy Optimizer** to rewrite and improve content for search engine performance.

### How It Works

1. Select a **content type** — Page SEO, Email, Ad Copy, or Social Media
2. Add your **target keywords**
3. Optionally attach an **ICP Profile** for persona-specific variants
4. Choose a **content source**:
   * **Manual Entry** — Paste content directly into the editor
   * **URL** — Provide a webpage URL to analyze
   * **Document Upload** — Upload a file (coming soon!)
5. Click **Optimize Copy**

The copy optimizer request runs in the background but is typically completed quickly. A progress bar tracks the AI analysis in real time via WebSocket. When complete, results include:

* **Optimized meta title** with character count
* **Optimized meta description** with character count
* **Rewritten content** in a rich text editor (editable and copyable)
* **Persona-specific variants** — If an ICP is attached, separate content versions are generated for each persona

<Tip>
  Attaching an ICP profile generates content variants tuned to different buyer personas — useful for landing pages targeting multiple audience segments.
</Tip>

## SEO Audits

Go to **SEO → Audits** to run a full technical SEO crawl on any of your Digital Experiences.

### Running an Audit

1. Select the **Digital Experience** (website) to audit
2. Click **Run Audit**
3. Monitor progress in real time — the audit runs asynchronously and updates via WebSocket

### Audit Results

Each completed audit shows an **overall SEO score** (0–100) and categorizes all discovered issues:

| Severity     | Color  | Meaning                                        |
| ------------ | ------ | ---------------------------------------------- |
| **Critical** | Red    | Must fix — actively hurting your rankings      |
| **Warning**  | Yellow | Should fix — missed optimization opportunities |
| **Info**     | Blue   | Nice to fix — minor improvements               |

Click any audit to open the full detail report, which lists every issue in an expandable accordion with:

* Issue title and description
* Number of affected pages
* Actionable recommendation to resolve it

**Score thresholds:**

| Score  | Health            |
| ------ | ----------------- |
| 80–100 | Good              |
| 60–79  | Fair              |
| 0–59   | Needs improvement |

Audit history is paginated and sortable by date or score, so you can track improvement over time.

## Directories & Backlinks

Go to **SEO → Directories & Backlinks** to build domain authority through targeted directory submissions.

### How It Works

GTM Suite analyzes your business profile — pulled from your workspace, ICP, and brand kit — and surfaces a ranked list of directories matched to your industry, region, and content type. Each directory gets a **match score** (0–100).

### Stats Dashboard

The top of the page shows a live summary:

| Stat                   | Description                              |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| **To Contact**         | Directories not yet approached           |
| **Pending**            | Submissions awaiting approval            |
| **Approved**           | Live backlinks                           |
| **Avg Relevance**      | Average match score across your pipeline |
| **Estimated DA Boost** | Projected domain authority increase      |
| **Success Rate**       | Percentage of submissions approved       |

### Submitting to a Directory

1. Browse **Recommended For You** (match score ≥ 80) or search **All Directories**
2. Click **View Requirements** to see what the directory needs
3. Click **Generate Outreach Message** — AI writes a personalized email subject and body based on your business profile and the directory's focus
4. Review and edit the message, then click **Send Message** to record a pending submission
5. When approved, click **Approve** and enter the live backlink URL

### Managing Submissions

The **Submissions** tab tracks every directory you've approached:

| Status       | Meaning                                |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------- |
| **Draft**    | Outreach message saved but not sent    |
| **Pending**  | Submitted, awaiting directory response |
| **Approved** | Accepted — backlink is live            |
| **Rejected** | Not accepted                           |

### Backlink Health

The **Backlinks** tab lists all live approved backlinks with domain authority, anchor text, first seen date, and current health status (Live, Broken, or Pending). Click **Refresh Backlink Status** to re-check all links.

### Adding Custom Directories

If a directory isn't in the GTM Suite database, click **Add Custom Directory** to create a workspace-specific entry with your own domain authority, category, contact info, and submission requirements.
