What Is a Semantic Content Audit?

A Semantic Content Audit goes beyond traditional content analysis. It examines the meaning and context of every page on your website, providing insights into how your pages relate to each other and can be used to better align your content creation process with target audience’s needs. This deep analysis helps in building content strategies to better align with user expectations and ensure you’re establishing yourself as topical experts in similar metrics to what Google uses.

Who are semantic content audits for?

Semantic content audits are ideal for websites with a significant volume of content, especially those looking to improve performance in search engines and LLMs like ChatGPT and Google’s AI Model. They’re built for:

  • SEO and Content Teams aiming to prioritize optimizations based on meaning and relevance—not just keywords.
  • Enterprises and Publishers managing large content libraries and needing scalable ways to detect duplication, gaps, and cannibalization.
  • CMOs and Strategists looking for high-level clarity on how well their content aligns with brand goals and audience intent.

Whether you’re launching a new content initiative or refining an existing one, a semantic audit gives you the map and metrics to move forward with confidence.

Key Features of Our Semantic Content Audit

Our Semantic Content Audit processes every page on your website into a map of meaning by generating vector embeddings for every page capturing how your content is understood at a semantic level. These embeddings fuel a series of advanced analyses that reveal opportunities to better align your site with user intent and modern search algorithms. Rooted in concepts surfaced from Google’s Content Warehouse API leak, this audit helps you optimize for clarity, semantic relevance, and cohesion across your entire content ecosystem.
