Give Optimize a topic and it will generate a topic model, the same as it does in all the other applications.
A few things to keep in mind when optimizing content.
- To be clear, mentioning a term a specific number of times on a page (keyword density) will not improve your ranking. Instead, use it to guide your topical coverage.
- You don’t need to incorporate all the topics in your content. But you should have enough coverage to reach the Target Content Score.
- Each mention of a topic is worth one point (up to a maximum of two points per topic).
- Consider the Target Content Score as a minimum objective. The more comprehensively you can address a topic the better.
- Aim to stick within a reasonable range of the Target Word Count as this encourages you to write concisely.
- Depending on your settings, mentions will appear either as banded ranges (as seen above) or exact figures.
Also, there is no way of excluding domains from appearing in the compete list under the Compete Tab. Because it is meant to show the top 20 pages, it can’t be customized.
The feed tab provides insights into the extent to which related topics are being incorporated into the document. Here are the three types of feedback you can expect to see.
MarketMuse may highlight words in the text editor using any one of these colors.
- Green if a term appears in the Research Tab.
- Yellow if it’s a variant.
- Blue when a relevant topic is mentioned but does not count towards increasing the content score.
When finished use Copy for Publishing to copy a clean HTML version of your document to the clipboard. Then paste this into your content management system (CMS).
Saving Content
Content in the text editor can be saved by pressing Save to Inventory to save the written content along with its list of recommended topics. Saved content can be retrieved by accessing Saved Content in the left navigation bar, under PROJECTS.
