Workflow
Step 0: Market Detection & Context Loading
CRITICAL: Detect target market FIRST before any analysis.
Market Detection Signals (check in order):
| Signal Type | Norway Indicators | France Indicators |
|---|---|---|
| URL pattern | getaround.no or no.getaround.com | fr.getaround.com or getaround.com/fr/ |
| Article language | Norwegian text | French text |
| Geographic keywords | Oslo, Bergen, Tromsø, Stavanger, Trondheim | Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Nice |
| User explicit mention | "optimize this Norwegian article" or "for Norway" | "optimize this French article" or "for France" |
| Currency/terminology | NOK/kr | EUR/€ |
Once market detected, load appropriate references:
If NORWAY detected:
- •Read
references/norway/performance_data_no.md - •Read
references/norway/market_context_no.md - •Read
references/norway/tone_guide_no.md - •Read

- •
references/shared/owner_content_principles.md(universal owner guidelines) - •
references/norway/owner_content_guide_no.md(NO-specific terminology, examples)
- •
Apply Norwegian calibrations:

- •Engagement benchmarks: Activities 65-80%, Owner guides 75-90%
- •Typical length: 1,200-1,800 words
- •Key USPs: Activity access, Nordic experiences, local availability
- •Competitors: Hyre (main), traditional rental (secondary)
If FRANCE detected:

references/france/tone_guide_fr.md - •Read
references/france/keyword_strategy_fr.md - •Read
references/shared/seo_aeo_best_practices.md(universal) - •If owner/propriétaire content: Also read:
- •
references/shared/owner_content_principles.md(universal owner guidelines) - •
references/france/owner_content_guide_fr.md(FR-specific terminology, examples)
- •
Apply French calibrations:
- •Tone: Formal "vous" form with strategic warmth (L'Adventure Lab standard)
- •Content focus: B2B/professional (60%), regulatory compliance, fiscal topics, professional vehicle guides
- •Top formats: Professional guides "Guide complet...", regulatory explainers "Tout savoir sur... en [Year]", TCO calculators
- •Geographic priority: Paris, Lyon, Marseille (major metros)
- •Audience split: 60% B2B/professional, 40% consumer
- •Engagement benchmarks: B2B guides 70-85%, Regulatory 65-80%
- •Typical length: 1,800-2,500 words (longer, more comprehensive)
- •Critical elements: Year-stamping mandatory ("2025"), regulatory citations, data tables
- •Key USPs: ZFE compliance, professional solutions, cross-border travel, fiscal optimization
- •Competitors: Turo (main), traditional rental (strong)
- •Unique opportunities: Regulatory content (ZFE, TVS, Crit'Air), professional fleet optimization
If market unclear: Ask user to clarify: "I see content that could be for Norway or France. Which market should I optimize for?" Wait for confirmation before proceeding.
Context validation checkpoint:
Before proceeding to analysis, confirm you have:
- •✅ Identified correct market (Norway or France)
- •✅ Loaded market-specific references (3-4 files)
- •✅ Noted tone guidelines (du vs vous)
- •✅ Understood content focus (consumer vs B2B)
- •✅ Identified proven formats for this market
- •✅ Know geographic and audience priorities
Step 1: Audience Identification (After Market Detection)
Identify target audience within the detected market:
Renter content: Inspiring, practical (activities, travel, use-cases)
- •Norway: Warm, friendly "du" tone
- •France: Professional "vous" but warmer for consumer content (L'Adventure Lab style)
Owner content: Professional, data-driven, concrete (income, optimization, how-to)
- •Norway: Friendly but concrete
- •France: Formal, analytical, fiscal focus
This differentiation is CRITICAL - tone, data usage, and CTA strength vary dramatically between markets AND audiences.
Step 2: Business Fit Validation (CRITICAL)
Before proceeding with optimization, validate business fit to avoid "vanity traffic":
Ask three validation questions:
1. Search Intent Alignment - Do people search this BECAUSE they need to rent a car?
- •✅ Good (Norway): "aktiviteter i Oslo" (planning trip → needs car)
- •✅ Good (Norway): "leie ut bil" (considering becoming owner)
- •✅ Good (France): "déplacement professionnel" (business travel → vehicle need)
- •✅ Good (France): "ZFE Paris 2025" (compliance → must rent ZFE-eligible vehicle)
- •❌ Bad (Norway): "skifte til vinterdekk" (maintenance on own car, not rental)
- •❌ Bad (Both): "sikring av barn i bil" (general child safety, not rental-specific)
2. Conversion Potential - Can this drive bookings or owner registrations?
- •✅ High: Specific use-case (wedding car, moving van, long-term rental, professional vehicle)
- •✅ Medium: Activities/travel inspiration (indirect booking driver)
- •✅ High: Owner guides with income data (direct owner recruitment)
- •✅ High (France): Regulatory compliance content (ZFE, professional tax optimization)
- •❌ Low: Generic information applicable to any car
3. Product-Content Fit - Does content naturally link to Getaround products?
- •✅ Good: Content mentions Connect, delivery, long-term rental, specific car types
- •❌ Bad: Content about general car ownership, maintenance, or driving tips
If business fit is WEAK:
- •Flag concern to user immediately
- •Explain why this is "vanity traffic" (high impressions but zero business value)
- •Suggest either: (a) pivot angle to Getaround relevance, or (b) skip optimization
- •Example: "Skifte til vinterdekk" → pivot to "Leie bil med vinterdekk - hva du må vite"
Only proceed with full analysis/optimization if business fit is VALIDATED.
Step 3: Six-Dimensional Analysis
Analyze article across six dimensions (reference seo_aeo_best_practices.md for detailed criteria):
A) Keyword & Search Intent Alignment
- •Identify primary and secondary keywords
- •Assess if content matches search intent (informational/transactional/navigational/commercial)
- •Check keyword placement (H1, intro, headers, conclusion, meta)
- •Evaluate keyword density and natural usage
B) Structure & Readability
- •Audit header hierarchy (H1 → H2 → H3 logic)
- •Assess paragraph length (mobile-friendly: 2-4 sentences)
- •Check scannability (headers + bold text should tell story)
- •Identify internal linking opportunities
C) Content Quality & Depth
- •Evaluate comprehensiveness for target keyword
- •Identify content gaps vs. competitors
- •Check if Getaround USPs are integrated naturally
- •Verify practical information (prices, parking, tips)
D) Engagement Signals
- •Assess hook strength (first paragraph)
- •Check CTA clarity and placement
- •Evaluate if content provides value to target audience
- •Compare against benchmarks from market-specific
performance_datafile
E) AEO/AI-Overview Readiness
- •Check for FAQ section (3-7 questions)
- •Assess Q&A structure (headers as questions)
- •Identify E-E-A-T signals (expertise, experience, authority, trust)
- •Look for unique data points or expert quotes
- •Evaluate semantic richness and freshness signals
F) Getaround Product-Content Fit
- •Verify natural integration of Getaround products (Connect, long-term, B2B)
- •Assess conversion opportunities
- •Check geographic relevance (market-specific priorities)
- •Validate format matches proven patterns from data insights
Step 4: Issue Identification & Prioritization
Based on analysis, categorize issues into three priority levels:
CRITICAL (Red Flag) - Issues actively harming performance:
- •Content-product mismatch (vanity traffic)
- •Missing or wrong primary keyword
- •Severely broken structure (no headers, walls of text)
- •No CTA or conversion path
- •Completely wrong tone for audience
HIGH-IMPACT (Orange) - Issues preventing article from reaching potential:
- •Weak title tag or meta description (CTR gap)
- •Position collapse (good content, bad ranking) - likely missing backlinks or internal links
- •Missing FAQ section (AEO opportunity)
- •No unique data points (weak E-E-A-T)
- •Moderate structure problems (header hierarchy issues)
OPTIMIZATION (Green) - Fine-tuning for marginal gains:
- •Secondary keyword integration
- •Sentence/paragraph length optimization
- •Additional internal links
- •Image alt text improvements
- •Semantic richness enhancements
For each issue, provide:
- •Specific description of problem
- •Estimated impact (high/medium/low)
- •Concrete fix recommendation
Step 5: Optimization Proposal
Create structured proposal with five components:
A) Structural Changes
- •Header reorg (before/after visualization)
- •Format shift (e.g., narrative → listicle)
- •Section additions/removals
- •FAQ placement
B) Content Additions
- •New sections to add
- •Specific data points needed
- •Expert quotes to include
- •Internal linking targets (link FROM this article to 3-5 related articles)
C) Content Removals
- •Irrelevant sections to delete
- •Redundant paragraphs
- •Off-topic tangents
D) SEO Technical
- •New title tag (50-60 chars with keyword)
- •New meta description (150-160 chars with CTA)
- •URL slug optimization
- •Internal link strategy
E) AEO Enhancements
- •FAQ schema implementation (content must be FAQ-formatted)
- •Q&A structure conversion
- •E-E-A-T signal additions
- •Unique data point integration
F) AEO Header Optimization (reference aeo_header_patterns.md)
- •Convert H2s to question format matching search queries
- •Plan 40-60 word answer-first paragraphs after each question header
- •Identify H2 injection opportunities for related high-volume queries
- •Apply PAA/Featured Snippet alignment (title tag, slug, H1, first sentence match query)
G) CTA Strategy (reference cta_framework.md)
- •Select CTA strength based on content type and intent:
Content Type CTA Strength Example Activity guides Soft "Utforsk flere tips" / "Découvrir plus" Use-case articles Medium "Se tilgjengelige biler" / "Voir les voitures" Owner guides Strong "Start å tjen i dag" / "Commencer à gagner" - •Choose appropriate power words for market (NO/FR)
- •Determine placement (end only for soft, middle+end for medium/strong)
H) Schema Markup Planning (reference schema_templates.md)
- •Select schema types: Article (always) + FAQPage (if 3+ Q&A) + HowTo (if step-by-step)
- •Plan FAQ questions for schema extraction
- •Note HowTo steps if applicable
Step 6: Execution (If Requested)
If user requests full rewrite, produce:
Complete optimized article in Markdown format, ready for Ghost CMS:
Include:
- •Engaging hook (first paragraph) - sensory, immersive, draw reader in
- •Clear promise - what user will learn/get from article
- •Structured body with proper header hierarchy
- •Natural USP integration (reference market-specific context file)
- •Practical information (prices, parking, tips, season)
- •FAQ section (3-7 questions with brief answers)
- •Appropriate CTA (strength matches content type)
- •SEO metadata section at end with title tag, meta description, slug, keywords, internal link suggestions
Tone calibration by market:
Norway:
- •Renter content: Warm, inspiring, informal "du" tone. Paint pictures with sensory language. Evoke feelings of adventure and nature.
- •Owner content: Friendly but concrete, informal "du" tone. Focus on practical income examples, optimization tips.
France:
- •Renter content (B2B): Professional, authoritative, formal "vous" tone. Data-driven, clear benefits. Regulatory accuracy.
- •Renter content (Consumer): Warmer but still formal "vous" (L'Adventure Lab style). Inspiring but practical. Professional credibility maintained.
- •Owner content: Analytical, formal "vous" tone. Focus on ROI, fiscal implications, concrete numbers. Professional skepticism requires data.
Critical French typography:
- •Space before: ! ? ; :
- •Guillemets: « texte »
- •Numbers: 10 000 (space for thousands)
- •Dates: 21 novembre 2025
Format selection based on proven patterns:
Norway:
- •Activities → Listicle "Topp 5-10..." (150-200 words per item, 1,200-1,800 total)
- •Owner guides → How-to with comprehensive depth (1,800-2,500 words)
- •Use-cases → Problem-solution (800-1,200 words)
- •City guides → Comprehensive listicle (20-30 items, 2,000-3,000 words)
France:
- •Professional guides → "Guide complet : [Topic] en 2025" (1,800-2,500 words)
- •Regulatory explainers → "Tout savoir sur [Regulation] en 2025" (2,000-3,000 words)
- •TCO calculators → "[Option A] vs [Option B] : coût réel" (1,500-2,000 words)
- •Consumer inspiration → L'Adventure Lab style narrative (1,500-2,000 words)
- •City guides → Geographic + compliance focus (2,000-3,000 words)

Quality Standards
Every optimization must achieve:

Balance principle: Always optimize for BOTH search engines AND humans. Never sacrifice readability for SEO.
Edge Cases & Special Considerations
Case 1: High-traffic but low-engagement article
- •Likely content-product mismatch (e.g., "Skifte til vinterdekk")
- •Assess if pivot possible (change angle to Getaround relevance)
- •If no pivot: recommend pruning/redirecting
Case 2: Low-traffic but high-engagement article
- •Content is good, ranking is the issue
- •Focus on: backlinks, internal links, on-page SEO
- •Don't rewrite content, fix distribution/visibility
Case 3: Seasonal content
- •Note timing in analysis (e.g., winter content analyzed in summer)
- •Recommend publication timing (4-6 weeks before season peak)
- •Consider annual update strategy
Case 4: Geographic mismatch
- •Norway: Bergen/Stavanger/Trondheim have good engagement but low volume vs Oslo
- •France: Secondary cities (Nice, Toulouse, Bordeaux) lower priority than Paris/Lyon/Marseille
- •Validate if worth optimizing based on market priority
- •Consider clustering strategy if appropriate
Case 5: Existing good performers
- •Focus on AEO enhancements (FAQ, unique data, E-E-A-T)
- •Don't over-optimize (if it works, minor tweaks only)
- •Protect rankings with freshness updates
- •France: Annual updates mandatory for regulatory content (year-stamp 2025 → 2026)
Critical Reminders
⚠️ ALWAYS detect market FIRST (Step 0) - Norway vs France requires completely different approach ⚠️ ALWAYS validate business fit BEFORE optimizing - Avoid vanity traffic ⚠️ Load market-specific references - Norway needs 3 files, France needs 4 files, plus universal SEO guide ⚠️ Apply correct tone - Norway: informal "du", France: formal "vous" with warmth ⚠️ Apply correct content focus - Norway: consumer activities, France: B2B/professional ⚠️ Use proven formats from data - Norway: listicles, France: professional guides/regulatory ⚠️ Balance SEO and AEO - Optimize for both traditional search AND AI overviews ⚠️ Be actionable - Every recommendation must be concrete and implementable ⚠️ Prioritize ruthlessly - Don't overwhelm user with 50 issues
Success metrics by market:
- •Norway: 65-80% engagement (activities), 75-90% (owner guides), 1,200-1,800 words typical
- •France: 70-85% engagement (B2B), 65-80% (regulatory), 1,800-2,500 words typical
- •Both: Drive measurable conversions (bookings or owner registrations)
