Summarize this page with AI:
The Recommendations page is your strategic command center for content. It's where Yolando turns data into a prioritized action plan, showing you exactly what content to create to fill your most critical AEO gaps and outperform competitors.
How Recommendations Are Generated
Yolando's proprietary recommendation engine is constantly analyzing key data sources to identify your biggest opportunities. Yolando continuously scrapes the web for both your and your competitors' content to ensure its data is always fresh and comprehensive.
Your Discoverability Insights: It pinpoints the topics and prompts where your brand has low visibility or negative sentiment.
Your Existing Content & Data: It understands what you've already published to avoid suggesting redundant topics. The engine is also informed by any uploaded context or documents you provide.
Your Competitors' Content: It analyzes what's working for your rivals to find angles you can own.
This sophisticated recommendation capability is a core strength of Yolando. The resulting recommendations are deeply sourced from all the knowledge we have about your brand, combining real-time web-scraped content, performance data, competitor analysis, and any proprietary context you upload. This holistic approach ensures the suggestions are not just relevant, but strategically powerful for your brand.
Navigating the Recommendations Page

The page is organized into two simple tabs to help you manage your workflow:
Unactioned: Think of this as your to-do list. It contains all the fresh, data-driven content recommendations that are ready for your review.
Actioned: This is your archive. As soon as you start creating a piece of content from a recommendation, it automatically moves here, keeping your main view clean and focused.
Anatomy of a Recommendation
Each recommendation card provides a wealth of information to help you understand why it was suggested and what impact it could have.
Component | What it Means |
Priority | High, Medium, or Low. This is calculated based on the severity of your discoverability gap, the volume of related prompts, and competitor activity. Start with High priority items for the biggest impact. |
Theme | The suggested title or core idea for the content piece. |
Content Type | The recommended format (e.g., Article, Social Post). |
Goal / Rationale | A brief explanation of why this content is important and what it aims to achieve for your AEO strategy. |
Relevant Topic(s) | The specific topic(s) this content will help improve your performance in. |
Current Discoverability | The data to back it up. This shows your current discoverability score for the related topic, highlighting the performance gap. |
What Happens Behind the Scenes?
Each recommendation also includes relevant source links (from your site and competitors) and suggested keywords. While not displayed on the main card, this information is automatically used to pre-populate the Content Brief when you decide to create the content.
How to Use Recommendations
Acting on a Recommendation
This is the primary workflow and the fastest way to turn an insight into a draft.
Find a recommendation in the Unactioned tab that you want to pursue.
Hover over it and click Create Content.
You will be taken directly to the Content Brief stage, which will be pre-filled with all the information from the recommendation.
From here, you can review, edit, and proceed through the Brief → Outline → Full Content workflow.
Discarding a Recommendation
If a suggestion isn't relevant or aligned with your current strategy, you can discard it.
Hover over the recommendation card.
Click the Discard (or trash icon) button.
The recommendation will be removed from your list.
💡 Help the AI Learn: Discarding irrelevant suggestions provides valuable feedback to the recommendation engine, helping it generate more tailored and accurate ideas for you in the future.
