01

Intent before copy

Decide what the visitor needs before choosing headings or keywords.

02

Common intent patterns

  • Learn or understand
  • Compare options
  • Find a provider
  • Use a tool
  • Navigate to a known brand/product
  • Find something local
03

One strong page can cover variants

Do not create separate pages for trivial wording differences when the expected result is the same.

04

Measure the result

Rankings without the right post-click behaviour can indicate that the page is attracting the wrong intent.
