SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Choosing which Amazon-affiliate cat product niches and keywords to target is guesswork without access to paid SEO tools like Ahrefs or Amazon APIs. This Skill provides a structured scoring framework that ranks niches and keywords by expected affiliate commission per 1,000 visitors using LLM-estimated proxies for demand, difficulty, and commission rates. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Category Scoring: Scores candidate cat product niches on five weighted axes (RevenuePotential, DemandClarity, CompetitionPressure, ContentMoat, OpsFriction) to produce a CategoryROI_score with deterministic tie-breaking and exclusion-list handling. - Keyword Ranking: Computes a CommissionOpportunityScore from volume, difficulty, price band, and commission rate proxies to sort buyer-intent keywords like "best X for Y" and "X vs Y". - Worker Prompt Alignment: Keeps scouting and keyword-generation prompts in sync with pipeline code (scout.ts, keywords.ts), including slug uniqueness and affiliate-jargon constraints. - Use Case: When deciding whether "cat GPS trackers" or "cat water fountains" is the better niche for catsluvus.com, apply the scoring rubric to compare commission ceilings, SERP openness, and content moat before committing content resources. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to scout and rank the best Amazon-affiliate cat product niche and generate a buyer-intent keyword list for it.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find profitable Amazon affiliate niches without Ahrefs?

Score candidate niches on five 0-10 axes: revenue potential, demand clarity, competition pressure, content moat, and ops friction, then combine them with default weights into a CategoryROI_score. LLM-estimated proxies replace paid tool data, with uncertainty labeled explicitly.

How to rank buyer-intent keywords for affiliate sites?

Compute a CommissionOpportunityScore as volume times average commission per sale times relative demand, divided by keyword difficulty. Sort descending and drop keywords where implied commission per sale is trivially low or demand appears dead.

What keyword patterns work for Amazon affiliate content?

Target patterns like "best [product] for [use case]", "best [product] under [price]", "[product] review", "[product] vs [competitor]", and "where to buy [product]". Avoid medical claims and affiliate or discount jargon in generated keyword lists.

Can LLM estimates replace Ahrefs or Amazon API data?

LLM proxies can approximate volume, difficulty, price bands, and commission rates when tools are unavailable, but each estimate should be labeled with confidence. The framework reserves a FutureIntegration lane for wiring real APIs later.

What are the limitations of proxy-based niche scoring?

Proxy scores depend on model judgment rather than measured search data, so rankings can drift from real SERP conditions. High-ticket assumptions like the $100+ AOV signal may not fit consumable categories, and weights may need tuning per site.
