The SEO Performance Edge Agent is your competitive intelligence specialist, designed to analyze your website's SEO performance against competitors. It identifies keyword gaps, content opportunities, technical SEO issues, and backlink differentials — then provides specific, prioritized recommendations to improve your search rankings.
My site vs. our top two competitors... The agent shows 47 keywords they rank for that we don't, three content topics with high search volume and low competition, and two technical issues dragging our crawl efficiency. That's a prioritized 90-day SEO roadmap.
A comprehensive gap analysis covers four dimensions: keyword gaps (terms competitors rank for that you don't), content gaps (topics with proven search demand that you haven't covered), technical gaps (site speed, crawlability, mobile optimization differences), and authority gaps (backlink profile comparison). Each gap comes with a specific recommendation and priority level based on potential traffic impact.
How many competitors should I analyze?Analyzing 2–3 direct competitors gives the best results. One competitor shows you bilateral gaps; three competitors reveal industry-wide patterns and help distinguish between competitor-specific advantages and table-stakes requirements for your niche. More than three adds diminishing returns and makes the analysis harder to prioritize.
