## 🎓 Use Cases
|
||
|
||
### Use Case 1: Identify Quick Wins
|
||
|
||
Find low-effort, high-impact optimization opportunities:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
import asyncio
|
||
from services.seo_tools.gsc_analyzer_service import GSCAnalyzerService
|
||
|
||
async def find_quick_wins():
|
||
service = GSCAnalyzerService()
|
||
|
||
analysis = await service.analyze_search_performance(
|
||
site_url="https://mysite.com",
|
||
date_range_days=90
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
opportunities = analysis['content_opportunities']
|
||
quick_wins = [o for o in opportunities if o['effort'] == 'Low' and o['priority'] == 'critical']
|
||
|
||
print(f"Found {len(quick_wins)} quick wins!")
|
||
for opp in quick_wins:
|
||
print(f"- {opp['action']}: +{opp['estimated_click_gain']} clicks potential")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Use Case 2: Competitive Benchmarking
|
||
|
||
Understand your market position:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
analysis = await service.analyze_search_performance(
|
||
site_url="https://mysite.com",
|
||
date_range_days=90
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
competitive = analysis['competitive_positioning']
|
||
print(f"Market Position: {competitive['position']}")
|
||
print(f"Your Score: {competitive['your_visibility_score']}")
|
||
print(f"Market Average: {competitive['market_average']}")
|
||
print(f"Gap to Leader: {competitive['gap_to_leader']} points")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Use Case 3: Content Planning
|
||
|
||
Plan new content based on data gaps:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
report = await service.get_content_opportunities_report(
|
||
site_url="https://mysite.com",
|
||
min_impressions=100,
|
||
date_range_days=90
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
opportunities = report['opportunities']
|
||
print(f"\n3-Phase Implementation Plan:")
|
||
print(f"Phase 1 (Weeks 1-2): +{report['phase_1']['estimated_traffic_gain']} clicks")
|
||
print(f"Phase 2 (Weeks 3-4): +{report['phase_2']['estimated_traffic_gain']} clicks")
|
||
print(f"Phase 3 (Month 2+): +{report['phase_3']['estimated_traffic_gain']} clicks")
|
||
```
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## 🔧 Advanced Features
|
||
|
||
### Opportunity Scoring
|
||
|
||
Opportunities are scored on multiple factors:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Opportunity Score = (Traffic Impact × 0.4) + (Implementation Ease × 0.3) + (Feasibility × 0.3)
|
||
|
||
Example:
|
||
- Traffic Impact (0-100): 85 × 0.4 = 34
|
||
- Implementation Ease (0-100): 90 × 0.3 = 27
|
||
- Feasibility (0-100): 80 × 0.3 = 24
|
||
─────────────────────────────────────────
|
||
Opportunity Score: 85 (Very High)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Phase-Based Planning
