Competitor Analysis — Insights & Strategies

Competitor analysis showed that the top ranking site in my niche had 3x more internal links to their key pages than I did. Restructured my internal linking strategy and closed the gap within 6 weeks.

The schema comparison is eye-opening. Most of my competitors had FAQPage and HowTo schema on their main pages. I had none. Added schema to my top 20 pages and started seeing rich results within 3 weeks.

Using competitor CWV scores as a benchmark is underrated. If your LCP is 2.1s and your competitor's is 3.8s, that's a genuine ranking advantage you can quantify.
