Run a content-and-meta SEO audit

SEOIntermediate~15 min

Before you start

A connected site with content reads on and your SEO plugin's read ability enabled (Yoast, Rank Math, or All in One SEO). No writes are used, so nothing here needs a write ability.

Before you fix anything, it helps to know what is actually broken and where the worst of it sits. Most sites have the same handful of problems scattered across a few hundred posts: SEO titles that are just the post title again, missing meta descriptions, a couple of pages quietly set to noindex, images with no alt text, and thin posts that never grew past a stub.

This reads all of that and hands you a ranked list. It cannot change a thing, so it is the safe first move before any bulk fix.

The prompt
Give me a read-only SEO audit of [the posts in the "Blog" section], change
nothing. For each post, pull the SEO title and meta description, flag the ones
that are missing, duplicated, too long, or too short, note any post set to
noindex, and check its images for missing alt text. Also flag the thin posts,
the ones with very little body content.
Lay it out as a table I can work down, worst offenders first, with a one-line
summary at the top. Be clear about what this does not cover: it looks at
on-page titles, meta, per-post indexing, alt text, and thin content, not the
robots file, the XML sitemap, redirects, or page speed and Core Web Vitals.

Why this is safe to run

Every ability behind this prompt is a read. Listing the posts, pulling each one’s SEO fields through your SEO plugin, and checking the media for missing alt text all write nothing, so the worst case is that a read you left switched off quietly returns less than you hoped. You can run it as often as you like, and it makes a clean baseline to re-run after a fix to confirm the numbers moved.

It is also honest about its edges. This audit reaches on-page signals: titles, meta descriptions, per-post indexing, image alt text, and thin content. It does not read your robots file, your XML sitemap, your redirect rules, or your Core Web Vitals, because those live outside the abilities this plugin exposes. The prompt says so out loud, so the report never implies coverage it does not have.

Already connected? Skip the paste. Ask your agent for the “content-and-meta SEO audit” recipe, or just ask it to tell you which posts have weak SEO fields, and it runs the same reads on your own install.

How it works

  1. List the posts in the set you name.
  2. Read each one's SEO title and meta description and flag missing, duplicate, too-long, or too-short values.
  3. Note any post set to noindex, and check its images for missing alt text.
  4. Flag thin posts with very little body content.
  5. Return a table, worst offenders first, with a one-line summary on top.

Questions

Does this change anything?
No. Every ability behind it is a read. It reports problems and writes nothing, so you can run it as often as you like.
Does it cover technical SEO too?
No, and it says so. It looks at on-page titles, meta, per-post indexing, alt text, and thin content. It does not read the robots file, the XML sitemap, redirects, or Core Web Vitals, because those are outside what these abilities reach.
