Chat: Ask Questions About Your Website and Get SEO Guidance

Use the Chat page to ask questions about your property in natural language. The AI uses your crawl and page data to answer. Get quick explanations, prioritisation tips, and next steps to improve traffic and SEO.

The Chat page is an AI assistant that knows about your property: it uses your crawl data, verifications, and (when available) Search Console or Analytics context to answer questions in plain language. Use it to get quick answers, clarify what to fix first, and decide on next steps—without digging through every report yourself.

Sections and how to use them

Chat interface

  • Message list — Your questions and the assistant’s replies appear in order. Replies are often in markdown (headings, lists, links) so you can scan and click through to specific pages or sections in the app.
  • Input box — Type your question and press Enter (or click Send). You can ask about a specific URL, a category of issues, traffic, or “what should I do next.”
  • Loading — While the AI is thinking, a loading indicator appears. Replies may take a few seconds depending on question complexity and backend.
  • Clear — A Clear button (often when there are messages) resets the conversation. Use it to start a new topic or to get a fresh answer after you’ve made changes.

What you can ask

Examples of questions the Chat can handle (depending on how it’s configured):

  • “Which pages have the most SEO issues?” — Get a short list or summary so you can prioritise.
  • “What’s wrong with [URL]?” — Get a summary of verification issues and suggestions for that page.
  • “Why is my traffic down?” — The AI may reference Analytics or Search Console trends and suggest checking specific pages or issue types.
  • “What should I fix first?” — Get a prioritised short list (e.g. high-impact pages, broken links) aligned with the Action plan logic.
  • “Explain duplicate content groups” — Get a plain-language explanation and how to use the Reports Duplicates tab.
  • “How do I improve my meta descriptions?” — Get steps and where to look (Verifications, Webpages, Search Console).

Answers may include links to app pages (e.g. Verifications, Reports, a specific URL in the page viewer). Use those links to go straight to the right place and take action.

Errors and limits

  • If the request fails (network, API, or no data), you’ll see an error message. Check that the property has been crawled and that you’re asking about something the app has data for.
  • Very long or vague questions may get a generic answer; try being specific (e.g. “list pages with broken links” or “issues on /blog/”).

How the Chat page helps traffic and SEO

  • Faster decisions — Get answers like “fix these 5 pages first” or “your main problem is broken links” without opening multiple tabs and reports.
  • Onboarding — New users can ask “How do I use BearAudit?” or “What’s the difference between Verifications and Reports?” and get guidance that points to the right pages.
  • Context-aware — Because the AI can use your property’s crawl and integration data, answers can be tailored to your site (e.g. “you have 12 pages with missing meta descriptions” instead of generic advice).
  • Next steps — After a crawl or after reading the Dashboard, ask “What should I do next?” to get a concise action list and links to the relevant sections (Action plan, Verifications, Reports).

Use Chat whenever you want a quick, conversational answer about your property. Combine it with the Dashboard (for the big picture), Action plan (for the full task list), and Verifications or Reports (to execute the suggested fixes) for a smooth workflow from question to fix to more traffic and better SEO.
