Authority and distribution readiness

Evidence to review

  • Distribution brief, derivative assets and channel-specific outcomes.

How to implement

  1. Choose the topic and canonical factual resource first.
  2. Adapt video, social or community material to the platform's task and context.
  3. Retain consistent facts and disclosures.
  4. Prioritise channels using actual reach and customer relevance, not a universal checklist.

How UltimateSEO checks this

Needs your evidence. No automated check covers this control, so it stays UNKNOWN until evidence is supplied.

Evidence needed: the distribution plan across platforms and the native derivatives produced from site content.

States used: PASS, FAIL, UNKNOWN, NOT_APPLICABLE or BLOCKED. UNKNOWN is never shown as a pass. How states work.
