Content Gap Analysis

Cross-format content adaptation. Turning one substantial piece into many derivative formats (blog series, email sequences, social posts, webinars, podcasts, video shorts) without losing the original's value or producing AI-slop variants. The discipline of adaptation per medium rather than mass-blast distribution. Triggers on content repurposing, content adaptation, cross-format content, content atomization, content multiplication, content distribution across formats, source-piece-to-derivative, video shorts from blog, email from whitepaper, podcast from article, blog series from research. Also triggers when a flagship piece is shipping but the team has not planned how to extend it across formats, when repurposing is happening but the derivatives feel mass-produced, or when AI-assisted repurposing is producing slop variants of strong source pieces.

Triggers on keyword research, keyword strategy, search intent, keyword clustering, topic clusters, keyword difficulty, search volume, ranking opportunity, content gap, what should I write about, target keyword, primary keyword, secondary keyword, long-tail. Also triggers when planning a content calendar or new site without keywords yet defined.

SERP-based semantic topic clustering for content architecture planning. Groups keywords by actual Google SERP overlap (not text similarity), designs hub-and-spoke content clusters with internal link matrices, and generates interactive visualizations. Optionally executes content creation if claude-blog is installed. Use when user says "topic cluster", "content cluster", "semantic clustering", "pillar page", "hub and spoke", "content architecture", "keyword grouping", or "cluster plan".

Master Eugene Schwartz's 5 Stages of Awareness framework from "Breakthrough Advertising" (1966) to write copy that meets prospects where they are. Use when: Writing copy and unsure how "aware" your audience is; Creating multi-stage funnels with different messaging per stage; Building email sequences that nurture from cold to ready-to-buy; Optimizing ads for different audience temperatures; Diagnosing why existing copy isn't converting
