Find queries where two of my pages compete in the SERP

Surface queries where Google is split between two URLs on your site — both lose, neither wins.

The prompt

Copy this and paste it into Claude, Cursor, or any AI client connected to your GenieSeo MCP URL.

prompt
For my main Search Console property, identify keyword cannibalisation: queries where two or more URLs from my site appeared in search results during the last 28 days, where each ranking URL had at least 100 impressions.

For each query (sorted by total wasted impressions descending, top 20):
1. The query.
2. Every competing URL with its position, impressions, clicks, CTR.
3. Recommendation: KEEP_BEST / MERGE_INTO_BEST / 301_TO_BEST / LEAVE_ALONE. Briefly justify.

Define "wasted impressions" as the sum of impressions on all but the highest-CTR URL for that query.

Format as Markdown.

When to use it

Quarterly. Cannibalisation is one of the highest-ROI fixes in SEO because consolidating two underperforming pages into one usually beats either alone.

What you get back

  • Table of queries where 2+ URLs from my site appear in the search results in the last 28 days.
  • For each query: every competing URL, its position, impressions, clicks, CTR.
  • A consolidation recommendation per query: keep / merge / 301 / leave alone, with rationale.

How this runs

GenieSeo doesn't execute prompts — your AI client does. Make sure your MCP URL is connected to Claude, Cursor, Codex, or Antigravity. New here? Read the 60-second setup guide.

Frequently asked questions

How do I run the "Find queries where two of my pages compete in the SERP" prompt?+

Sign up for GenieSeo, connect Google OAuth, paste your MCP URL into Claude or Cursor, then copy the prompt from this page into a new chat. The model will call the relevant Search Console or GA4 tools automatically.

Does this recipe change my Google data?+

No. This recipe only uses read-only Search Console and GA4 scopes. It will not submit sitemaps or modify properties unless you use a separate write-enabled recipe.

What is a GenieSeo recipe?+

A recipe is a copy-paste prompt you run inside Claude, Cursor, or Codex after connecting your GenieSeo MCP URL. It tells the model which Search Console or GA4 tools to call and how to format the answer.

Do I need GenieSeo connected before using a recipe?+

Yes. Sign up at GenieSeo, approve Google OAuth, paste your personal MCP URL into your AI client, then paste the recipe prompt. Without MCP, the model cannot reach live Google data.
