How does keyword mining work, and how do words become topics?

AnswerMining expands titles; it does not write the piece. Give a seed and you get questions you could answer. Keep the ones that represent you and that people ask, then send them to the topic factory. Do not draft body copy on the mining page. GEO wants citable claims, not a longer list.

Seed in, titles out

Open keywords, type a product, audience, or a question you already use. The output is titles, not an article. Filing them: How does the topic factory work?. The same questions can also go into market as voice notes; mark usable only after review. See How do market research packs work, and what do I edit after the model runs?.

Corpus still has to exist before you weave facts; see How do I store corpus and cite tags while writing?. Mining does not replace the fact store.

Keep what you can write

Drop titles you cannot stand behind. Factory titles lock in the writer; see How do I turn a topic into a publishable master draft?.

Then sync and test the question with rank. Do not orbit the list. Chat versus Dianwu: How is Dianwu different from ChatGPT or Doubao?.

Do this

  1. Put a seed in keywords.
  2. Keep the titles you can write and send them to the factory.
  3. Open the card, fix the brief, then lock the title in the writer.

Short answers

Does mining publish to platforms?
No. Mining only expands titles. Shipping is sync or placement; see How do I sync one master draft to many platforms?.
Can I mine with an empty seed?
Give a product name or an audience line. An empty seed only makes noise.
