Headline 40-70 characters
Empty headline - Google has nothing to show in the SERP.
Headline pattern (number / how / your)
Soft tip: headlines starting with a number, 'How', 'Why', or containing 'your' get more clicks.
Body has 200+ words
Empty body. Google needs prose to rank a page.
Cover image uploaded
No cover image - your shares on LinkedIn / X look like plain text links.
3+ tags for topical authority
No tags. AI engines use these to match your piece to topical queries.
At least one internal link
Add at least one link to another PUBlish piece or author. Internal linking compounds SEO across the platform.
Image alt text
No cover, no alt text - accessibility + image-search miss.
A 16:9 image reads best. Paste a direct image link. Unsplash, your own site, or a Supabase bucket URL. Shown as the piece hero and as the thumbnail on cards.
Tags help readers find your work and feed Article schema keywords for Google + AI.
Publish later (optional)
Leave empty to publish immediately. Set a future time and the piece stays invisible to readers until then.
Add a headline (min 3 characters) to publish.
Your piece goes live immediately. Flag anything you'd reconsider.
