2. COMPETITIVE GAP: Compare the site’s perceived authority and content depth against the listed [COMPETITORS].
3. ON-PAGE AUDIT: Review the metadata, header hierarchy (H1-H3), and keyword density. Identify if the [TARGET KEYWORDS] are placed strategically or if there is evidence of keyword stuffing or cannibalization.
4. TECHNICAL CHECKLIST: Address the [KNOWN ISSUES]. Evaluate mobile responsiveness, page load speed expectations, and URL structure. Explain these concepts in plain English for a beginner.
5. CONTENT STRATEGY: Identify "thin content" pages and suggest how to expand them to better capture search intent related to the [PRIMARY GOAL].
6. PRIORITIZATION: Rank all suggested fixes into three categories: 'Immediate Impact' (Fix today), 'Growth Drivers' (Fix this month), and 'Long-term Maintenance'.
