Pruning Workflow

Scan

The module scans all published content for thin pages (low word count, low traffic, low SEO score), near-duplicates, and cannibalization targets.

Merge Plan

AI generates a merge plan: which posts to combine, what to keep from each, new title and structure, and redirect recommendations.

Execute

Apply the merge: consolidated content is generated, the primary post is updated, secondary posts are redirected, and originals are backed up.

Undo

If the result isn't satisfactory, undo restores original content and removes the redirect.

Analyzes competitor websites to identify content topics they cover that you don't, revealing opportunities to fill content gaps and build topical authority.
