# Editorial workflow review — completed teaching report

Original fictional exercise; no provider run, client outcome or search-performance measurement is reported.

Audience: editor of a fictional SEO-tool buying guide. Decision: approve a bounded evidence-gathering assignment, not publication of an unverified recommendation.

## Findings and annotations

F01 — Seven editorial questions were reviewed in fanout-clusters-example-en.csv. Origin: editorial_example, not provider-exposed native search. The worksheet groups q01–q02 as selection, q03–q04 as cost, q05–q06 as import and excludes q07 (SQL). This is a grouping decision, not demand evidence.

F02 — Selection and total five-seat cost belong to the same fictional buying guide. Supported by the shared reader decision in the exercise. Real plan eligibility and prices remain unchecked.

F03 — The GSC mapping sample has no search measurements. Status: not_checked. This does not establish that the questions have zero demand.

F04 — The source-audit exercise supports the general claim that foundational SEO remains relevant in Google's generative search features. It does not support a first-place ranking or a traffic promise.

## Hypothesis and recommendation

H01 — A verified cost section could help a five-person team choose a plan. Hypothesis only. Check current official conditions and actual permitted product usage before recommending a plan.

R01 — Editor: improve the existing fictional /seo-tools guide with a researched cost section; use the completed content brief as the assignment. Acceptance: dated official conditions, explicit seat calculation and no unsupported winner claim.

R02 — Operations owner: treat CSV import as a separate task requiring an actual import test. Do not split UTF-8 into another landing page.

## Measurement and boundaries

Website change: not released in this exercise. Clicks, impressions, ranking and conversions: not measured. Provider costs: none incurred by this worksheet.

The measurement example's 10/1000 versus 20/2000 figures are unrelated synthetic arithmetic, not this report's observed results.

Next review: after evidence collection and any real release, using a fixed URL/query scope and confirmed recrawl. ai-fanout.com, SEO Fanout and Crawl Foundry share an owner; links between them are connected workflows, not independent endorsements.
