Planning new SEO content for 2026?

PLEASE do this first:

1. Get all your blog URLs into a spreadsheet.

Use Screaming Frog to crawl and export. It provides other useful information like titles and descriptions.

Connect further data sources:

- Ahrefs
- Google Analytics
- Google Search Console

2. Enter each URL into Google Search Console or Ahrefs and find its best-ranking keywords.

Add this data to the spreadsheet for each page:

- Primary keyword (your main keyword)
- Secondary keywords (variations and similar)
- Current position for your target keyword(s)

If a URL isn't ranking for anything?

Find the most relevant keywords using Ahrefs.

Then...

3. Audit each blog post and assign actions:

- Leave: Content that’s reached its full potential
- Merge: Cannibalizing or extremely similar content
- Delete: Content that no longer offers value to users
- Update: Small changes to improve the performance
- Rewrite: Large changes to improve the performance

4. Spend a few weeks in Q1 implementing these actions to get more out of your existing assets.

Prioritize updates and rewrites that have:

- Target keywords in positions 4-20
- Higher conversion and $ potential
- Easy improvement opportunities

Remember:

Not all of your Q1 content needs to be new. Look at your existing content first.

You're likely sitting on many quick wins.

Helping founders make predictable revenue from organic content and rankings on LinkedIn, Google, and LLMs | CEO of Contact.so | Mentions.so | Kleo.so

Flew to London for a single meeting that will define our next 90 days at Kleo. Last quarter, we hit $62k MRR in 53 days. Here's the exact agenda:

[Total time: 6-8 hours]

FOUNDATIONS (30 mins)

Everyone shares one thing they need from today. (5 mins)

Add issues to the list. "Issues" are tasks, blockers, or opportunities that need attention this year. (10 mins)

ROCK SETTING (4.5 hours)

Put 1-year goals on the whiteboard (revenue, profit, client numbers)

Put 90-day goals next to them. Only topline numbers first.

Then brainstorm: "How do we hit these numbers?"

Choose the most important "issues" to prioritize over the next 90 days.

Keep, Kill, Combine until you have an organized list.

LUNCH BREAK

Choose 3-7 Company Rocks. Rocks must be SMART goals.

Then choose Rocks for each department and each leadership team member.

Final Rock count:

- Company: 3–7 Rocks
- Departments: 3–7 Rocks each
- Leadership: 3–7 Rocks each
- Other Employees: 1–3 Rocks each

Share Rocks in a circle.

Hold each other accountable using two thumbs up: one for SMART, one to confirm it's right-for-this-quarter.

IDS SECTION (2 hours)

IDS = Issues to Discuss and Solve

Review your issues list. Pick the top 3.

Identify, Discuss, Solve. Leave with problems solved to build momentum.

CLOSING (30 mins)

Put on calming music. Get into a meditative state.

Answer these four questions:

- How did you feel about today?
- Any AHAs or highlights?
- Were your expectations met?
- Rate this meeting 1-10

This framework keeps us aligned, focused, and moving fast.

We’re launching Kleo to the public in 15 days.

And we want you to be part of it.

To celebrate, we’re holding a webinar to reveal the entire lead gen system we used with organic content to scale our businesses from 0 to $61k MRR in 53 days.

SEO tip: Try these 2 tactics to start 2026 strong with short-term SEO wins. 

1. Do a backlink audit and find the pages on your site with the most backlinks from high quality sources. 

Then do two key things: 

1) optimize these pages for conversions to capitalize on that referral traffic

Add a CTA to join your newsletter, embed testimonials, case studies, lead magnets.

2) internally link from these pages to your other most valuable pages

Audit existing internal links on this page, remove less valuable internal pages and replace for your most important pages. Drive that link equity to your key pages without diluting it.

2. Prune your worst-performing content.

Google views your WHOLE SITE as one main entity. 

Search engines and AI will rank and showcase a website with only good content higher than a website with 5 great articles and 5000 garbage ones.

Before you get content-velocity-happy or spam programmatic pages, look at the data.

To identify low-performing content, you can perform a content audit and find:

- Bad URLs and broken links
- Traffic from an organic search for the last 90 days
- Landing pages with low time-on-site and high exit rates
- Content with fewer social shares 
- content with little to no backlinks

Once you’ve got all the data in front of you, create an Excel sheet with 3 tags:
1. Leave it as it is
2. Remove / redirect / consolidate
3. Improve

The last step is to take action to improve it.

- Remove or redirect the pages, or consolidate them in topical clusters.
- Hire a good copywriter to improve the content that you need to rewrite
- Replicate style, tone, intent matching, and depth of best content

AI and LLMs hallucinate information in SEO analysis way too often. It’s genuinely terrifying how many people are banking on AI to run their SEO programs.

Especially in SEO, if you don’t know any better, it’s very hard to tell when AI is inaccurate because it all sounds right. Uses the right jargon. The right terminology.

But it’s very often dead wrong and fails to draw the seemingly obvious conclusion from the data you feed it.

If you aren’t an expert, it feels dead on accurate. If you are an actual expert you spot the problem instantly. 

Because the second an expert corrects AI and explains with a prompt why that output was inaccurate, AI fesses up: 

“You’re right. That was wrong. I’ll redo it using X and Y.” 

Key distinction is that only truly seasoned professionals know what to correct in the first place.

If someone is “running the entire SEO strategy on ai” or “firing my entire team because ChatGPT does my strategy” … run. Far far away. 

You are dealing with someone who is not well versed in SEO and believes the AI output at face value because it said all of the “right” words.

What AI SEO and marketing tools are you using in 2026?

Top 8 SEO & marketing tools we use daily at uSERP

The #1 reason most SEO programs suck is poor resource allocation.

It's almost always a strategy bottleneck, not execution.

You can build 500 links and write 500 articles, optimize 500 pages. Doesn't matter if...

- Those pages are too hard for your brand to rank for in the time horizon you need to see ROI within, thus you burned all your capital before any return and now can't reinvest in more growth 

- Even if you ranked those pages, the CTR is sh** due to AI overviews and being too informational / lacking commercial intent

- Even if a % clicked through, the topics were too broad and almost nobody reading your content needs nor cares about your product or service 

- All those links you built were to TOFU content and had zero impact on LLM citations and AI visibility 

- Let's say you actually chose decent pages, they improved in rankings and got some leads

- Wasn't enough leads, ROI negative, can't reinvest in more compounding growth 

Execution without data-backed strategic guidance is just throwing spaghetti (your money) at the wall (down the toilet).

Deciding what you do before you do it is either going to make or break your SEO.

PS — brands that front load budget on SEO (and most channels for that matter) see better results, from my experience working with 100s of companies. Sometimes, you're just moving so slow that you pivot before striking gold simply because you didn't drive enough input velocity. Condense a yearly budget into 6 months, or 9 months, or less. Whatever you feel comfortable doing. 

BUT MOVE. FASTER!
