<speak> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> Hi, and thanks for taking the time to listen. </p> <p> In this walkthrough, I’m going to explain a real SEO content project I worked on, step by step. I’ll cover how I researched keywords, created outlines, used AI responsibly, edited for quality, optimized for search, and stayed organized throughout the process. </p> <p> This is not theory. This is a practical breakdown of how I actually work. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> The project I’ll reference is a long form SEO article created for VocalVideo. VocalVideo is a SaaS platform that helps businesses collect customer testimonial videos at scale. </p> <p> The goal of this article was to create search optimized content that clearly explained the product, addressed real business problems, and competed with existing testimonial and social proof content in the marketing and SaaS space. </p> <p> The focus was clarity, intent alignment, and structure rather than word count. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> When I start keyword research, I focus on search intent before volume. </p> <p> For this project, the primary keyword cluster centered around customer testimonial videos and video testimonials for businesses. Supporting keywords included video social proof, SaaS testimonials, and customer video reviews. </p> <p> I reviewed top ranking pages to understand what Google was rewarding. Most competitor content was either too shallow or focused only on tools without explaining the real operational problem businesses face. </p> <p> Based on this, I grouped keywords by intent. One group focused on why testimonials matter. Another focused on how businesses collect testimonials. A third focused on tools and solutions. </p> <p> This intent mapping directly shaped the article structure so each section answered a specific search need rather than repeating keywords. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> Before writing anything, I created a detailed outline. </p> <p> Each section had a clear purpose. One section explained the problem with traditional testimonial videos. Another explained how VocalVideo solves that problem. Other sections focused on specific use cases like B2B, service businesses, and ecommerce. </p> <p> This approach prevented overlap and ensured the article flowed logically from problem to solution to impact. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> I use AI strictly as a drafting tool, never as a publisher. </p> <p> Once the outline was finalized, I used AI to generate early drafts for individual sections. I never publish AI output without heavy editing. </p> <p> I manually rewrote sections to remove generic language, tighten explanations, and make the content specific to VocalVideo. Instead of vague claims, I clarified how the platform removes scheduling issues, improves recording quality, and scales testimonial collection for teams. </p> <p> Most of my time was spent editing, restructuring paragraphs, improving clarity, and making sure every section actually served search intent. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> After writing, I optimized the article for on page SEO. </p> <p> I refined headings to improve structure and clarity. I ensured keywords appeared naturally in the introduction and headings. I improved readability through shorter paragraphs and logical flow. </p> <p> I also aligned content depth with competitor length while adding more practical detail where it mattered most. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> To stay organized, I track each article using a simple system. </p> <p> This includes keyword targets, outline status, draft status, and optimization steps. Once published, I monitor impressions and clicks in Google Search Console to identify opportunities for future updates. </p> <p> Everything stays documented so improvements are easy and repeatable. </p> </prosody> <break time="1s"/> <prosody rate="medium" pitch="medium"> <p> That’s my complete SEO content workflow, from research through optimization. </p> <p> Clear intent, structured outlines, careful AI use, and clean execution. </p> <p> Thanks for listening. </p> </prosody> </speak>
