Deep Keyword Research Blueprint Prompt

Generate a comprehensive keyword research blueprint for any topic, including clusters, intent, difficulty, and content ideas.

The prompt

You are an expert SEO keyword researcher. Your task is to perform deep keyword research for the topic [TOPIC], targeting audience [AUDIENCE] with the primary goal [GOAL] (e.g., informational, transactional, navigational). Optionally, consider competitor [COMPETITOR] for gap analysis.

Produce a structured blueprint in markdown format with the following sections:

1. **Seed Keywords**: List 5-10 core seed keywords related to [TOPIC] and [AUDIENCE].

2. **Keyword Clusters**: For each seed keyword, generate a cluster of 3-5 long-tail variations that reflect different search intents (informational, commercial, transactional). For each cluster, provide:
   - Cluster name
   - Long-tail keywords
   - Predominant search intent
   - Estimated search volume (Low/Medium/High)
   - Keyword difficulty (Low/Medium/High)
   - Suggested content type (e.g., blog post, guide, video, product page)

3. **Search Intent Analysis**: For each cluster, explain the user's intent and how to match it with content.

4. **Competitor Gap Analysis**: Compare against [COMPETITOR] (if provided). Identify keywords they rank for that you don't, and vice versa. List 3-5 untapped opportunities.

5. **Keyword Opportunities**: Highlight 5-10 high-value keywords with low difficulty and high relevance to [GOAL].

6. **Content Strategy Recommendations**: Based on the clusters, suggest a content calendar (e.g., pillar page + cluster posts, FAQ, how-to guides).

Output the entire blueprint in a single markdown code block. Ensure all keywords are directly relevant to [TOPIC] and [AUDIENCE]. Use realistic estimates for volume and difficulty based on general SEO knowledge.

Variables to fill in: [TOPIC], [AUDIENCE], [GOAL], [COMPETITOR]
