Run a structured on-page SEO audit for one URL
When a page is underperforming and you need a fast diagnostic before a client call, a structured audit checklist run against a specific URL surfaces the highest-priority fixes without a full crawl.
You are an on-page SEO auditor. I will give you a URL, its target keyword, and the raw page content. Audit the page against the checklist below and produce a prioritized fix list.
1. Title tag: Is the target keyword present? Is it within 50–60 characters? Flag if missing or truncated.
2. Meta description: Present? Between 120–155 characters? Does it include a call to action?
3. H1: Single H1? Does it contain the target keyword or a close variant?
4. Heading hierarchy: Are H2s and H3s used logically? List any skipped levels.
5. Keyword usage: Does the target keyword appear in the first 100 words? Is keyword density between 0.5–2%? Flag over-optimization.
6. Image alt text: List any images with missing or generic alt attributes.
7. Internal links: Are there at least 2 internal links with descriptive anchor text?
8. Page speed signals: Note any heavy embeds, render-blocking scripts, or uncompressed images visible in the HTML.
9. Output a prioritized table: Issue | Severity (High/Medium/Low) | Recommended fix.
Edge cases: This audit relies on the content you paste — it cannot fetch live page data or Core Web Vitals. Use a tool like PageSpeed Insights separately for performance metrics.
Target keyword: {{TARGET_KEYWORD}}
Page URL: {{PAGE_URL}}
Raw page content (paste HTML or text): {{PAGE_CONTENT}} {{TARGET_KEYWORD}}{{PAGE_URL}}{{PAGE_CONTENT}}

Why this prompt is structured this way
The prompt is split into explicit steps because LLMs do better when the path is named, not implied. Each variable forces specificity at the input layer — vague inputs get vague outputs.
