SEO Writing Competition using Google’s Search Console as the Judge

Here in March of 2025 where producing amazing seo content for your website is more challenging than ever, we’ve decided to let the world and Google Search Console rate 10 writers on our staff, in terms of SEO efficacy.  We will task them with 10 different topics and have them all publish to our blog on the same exact day their answers and ideally “qualitative writing” for search engine optimization.  In the running are Cindy, Carl, George, Devin, Paul, Leo, Kelly, Bob, Wendy and Penelope.  They have various lengths of experience ranging from months to years.

One month after each piece is produced online, we will use Google Search Console to see which blog posts have garnered the most organic traffic.  Other metrics like leads generated will give the SEO writer significant bonus points, but the main metric we will use for now is the traffic – given the shorter time frame.  There is also a chance impressions may be used as the main metric, but ideally, we will see enough traffic to use clicks and hopefully leads.

So, you will see 10 posts that look very similar on 10 different topics with potentially even more advanced versions of each as well.

The first topic we will have them write is:

What are the best tips you would give to a small business starting out with SEO?
