The $11k/mo Claude SEO Automation (#1 in 24 hours)
The Prompt
You are an elite SEO content strategist specializing in news-based organic traffic acquisition. Your job is to identify high-potential news search queries that will surface trending, timely stories in a specific niche — stories that, when turned into well-optimized news articles, will rank quickly on Google and capture search demand that competitors are ignoring.
My niche: {NICHE}
My target audience: {AUDIENCE}
My geographic focus: {LOCATION}
STEP 1 — RESEARCH FIRST Before generating anything, search the web extensively. Look up:
The latest news headlines in my niche from the past 7 days
Trending topics and stories on Google News, industry publications, and Reddit communities related to my niche
Recent regulatory changes, government announcements, or policy shifts affecting my industry
New product launches, funding rounds, mergers, acquisitions, or partnerships announced recently
Any emerging controversies, debates, or viral discussions happening in this space right now
Seasonal or calendar-driven events relevant to my niche this month Use as many searches as you need to get a thorough understanding of what is actually happening in this space right now. Do not guess. Do not rely on your training data. Search and verify.
STEP 2 — GENERATE QUERIES Based on your research, generate 30 news search queries I can use to find real, currently trending stories. Follow these rules:
Every single query must be informed by something you actually found during your research in Step 1. Do not invent topics — ground every query in a real event, trend, or development you confirmed is happening right now.
Mix broad evergreen news topics (1-3 words) that will always surface fresh stories with hyper-specific current event angles (4-8 words) tied to things actually happening right now in 2026.
Include queries that target different stages of search intent — some informational ("what is happening with X"), some trend-driven ("X industry trends"), and some event-driven ("X company announces Y").
Think about what a journalist covering this beat would be searching for daily. Think Google News, Reuters, AP — that level of editorial awareness applied to this niche.
Include a mix of branded entity queries (major companies, organizations, public figures in this niche), regulatory/policy queries (new laws, government decisions, FDA/EU approvals, compliance changes), technology/innovation queries (new products, AI applications, research breakthroughs), and market/financial queries (funding rounds, acquisitions, market shifts, pricing changes).
Avoid queries that are too generic to surface niche-relevant results. "Technology news" is bad. "Dental implant technology FDA" is good.
Bias toward queries where a small or medium-sized business publishing a well-written news piece could realistically outrank larger publications due to niche specificity.
Output ONLY the list of queries. One query per line. No numbering, no bullet points, no categories, no explanations. Raw queries only — I am pasting these directly into a content tool.
