Introducing the Scalenut Content Optimizer Tool

Optimizing your content for search engines is not an easy thing. 

It requires a lot of research, microscopic attention to detail, and a lot of time. Just like content creation, it is an entire stage in the process of content marketing in itself. The Scalenut Content Optimizer is a one-stop solution for every aspect of content optimization. 

From seeing how your content fares against what’s working on search engines like Google to ensuring that you use all the important keywords, you can get everything done with the help of our Content Optimizer. 

Let’s take a look at how the Scalenut Content Optimizer tool helps users ensure that their content is well on its way to the top-ranking position.

The Scalenut SEO Score

The Scalenut SEO Score is a comprehensive measure of how well your content is optimized for search engines. 

It isn’t your run-of-the-mill SEO content score that simply calculates a numeric score based on the number of keywords and their density. 

The Scalenut SEO Score goes beyond keywords and evaluates the optimization quotient of your content on 9 major SEO aspects. It is a comparative analysis of how your content fares against the top-ranking blog pages for the target keyword in the target location. 

The all-new Scalenut Content Optimizer tool produces an average score and the top score to give you an idea of the amount of optimization needed to rank higher.

Let’s understand the 9 major SEO aspects included in the Scalenut SEO score.

Key Terms

Key terms are important semantic words that helps a search engines like Google understand that your content belongs to a particular topic and if it discusses that topic in depth. With Scalenut Content Optimizer tool, we ensure you use the most important keywords in your content. We identify these key terms (keywords) by analyzing the top-ranking pages on the internet. 

The new content optimizer gives you an accurate count of the number of key terms you have used and the number of key terms that most top-ranking pages are using. It further helps you by giving a ready list of key terms you can use in your blog content. With our AI writer you can leverage advanced language models and generate relevant content for that key term.

Content Depth

Content depth is another aspect of optimization that is often overlooked while manually optimizing content. But the search engines that you are trying to rank on will not overlook these factors. The Scalenut Content Optimizer tool helps you ensure that your content covers all the important content depth factors.

It gives you a real-time analysis of your content for factors such as total word count, number of headings, number of bold words, number of images, and the alt text for your images. 

Keyword Density

Another important factor in optimizing content is to avoid keyword stuffing and making sure that the density of keywords is between 1% and 2.5% of the total word count. The new Scalenut Content Optimizer tool analyzes the keyword presence in your text and alerts you if your keyword density is more than 2.5% or your primary keyword density is less than 1%.

To know where you have used the keywords, simply click on the keyword, and the optimizer will highlight all the use cases of the keyword in your content. 

H1 Heading

H1 is an important headings tag that helps search engines understand the structure of your content. If your H1 does not contain the primary keyword, the chances of search engine crawlers identifying you as a source of information for the target keyword are reduced. 

The Content Optimizer analyzes your H1 tag for the presence of your target keyword and character length. These factors help you ensure that your H1 heading for the content piece is completely optimized and search engine crawlers index your content for the target keyword. 

H2-H6 Heading

It’s not just the H1 tag, but all of your headings should contain key terms for your content to be considered as a possible source of information for the target keyword. 

The Content Optimizer helps you ensure that all your headings are keyword-loaded and at least one question is present among all the H2-H6 tags. You can even find suggestions of keyword infused headings within the tool and generate content on them.

Meta Tags

Meta tags are detailed information about a web page that helps search engines understand what the content is all about. 

The Scalenut Content Optimizer helps you check your meta tags for keyword presence and character length. If not added, you can use our AI to generate a meta title and a meta description that follow search engine guidelines. 

Featured Snippet

In order for your content to stand a chance at becoming a featured snippet for your target keywords, it is important that you have at least one question among your H2 tags with a 300-character answer to the question. 

The Featured Snippet section helps you ensure that your content includes a question with a 300-character answer along with a PAA (People Also Ask) question as a heading in your content. As always, you can use our power-packed AI to generate an answer for your question.

Links

To be considered a trustworthy source, you must have outbound links that verify the information in your content. The ‘Links’ section of the Content Optimizer helps you ensure that you have relevant information in your content with outbound links to the credible sources.

URL

The URL of your page is as important as the content inside. That’s why we have created a separate URL section in the new Content Optimizer that checks your URL for keyword presence and semantic simplicity.
