Useful Info:

• Search intent type — informational, commercial, navigational? This shapes everything.
• Primary entity — what person, brand, concept, or place is this post about? AI search is entity-driven, not just keyword-driven.
• Target audience / persona — AI models like Perplexity and ChatGPT surface content that clearly serves a specific person's need.

AI SEO Factors:

• AI citation potential — is this post definitional ("what is X"), comparative ("X vs Y"), or instructional ("how to X")? Those formats get pulled into AI answers most often.
• Competitor AI visibility check — not just who ranks on the SERP, but who's being cited in AI answers for your target query.
