31. 1. INTERNAL URL DATA
Most CMS allow for
export of all pages/posts
CMS Export
Go to your
domain.com/sitemap.xm
l to get a list of all URLs
If you don’t have a
sitemap I suggest using
YoastSEO to help make
one.
Sitemap XML
Use a “crawler” to crawl
your site to obtain a list
of all URLs.
Site Crawl

32. 1. CRAWLINGTOOLS

URLS

really not cost effective for larger
sites (yet)
• Really nice reporting ability
• Doesn’t impact your computer like
Xenu or Screaming Frog can as it is
SaaS
Deepcrawl

33. 2. INTERNAL ANALYTICS DATA

34. 3. LINK DATATOOLS
• http://bit.ly/ahrefs-signup
• Great source for link data
• Has other features that make up
for the smaller link data set
(compared to Majestic)
Ahrefs
• http://bit.ly/majestic-signup
• Great tool and data source
• I believe them to have the biggest
and best data set for links
Majestic
• http://bit.ly/linkdetox-signup
• Not cheap but has a great
selection of link data tools
• They use multiple sources for data
so while not a native database,
they likely have the largest
combined data set

38. 7. ANALYZE
 Hey beer + data = FUN (just
more data and not too much
beer) or else you will suddenly
realize your new content ideas
all revolve around horrible
horrible ideas.
 Right @hucksbeerbuzz?

39. 8. COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS + CONTENT
ANALYSIS + GAP ANALYSIS = PRODUCE MORE
CONTENT
So why did I just go through this
whole process? With it you can
do the following:
- Try to understand what content
to make for specific social
networks, keywords and
audiences.
- You could also do this on your
competitor sites to understand
what they are producing and
how it might be doing.

ANALYSIS + GAP ANALYSIS = DONE
