# Comparison Post Writer Write high-converting "X vs Y" comparison blog posts that rank on Google and help readers make a confident buying decision. Each post includes a feature comparison table, individual product breakdowns, pros and cons, a clear winner recommendation, and affiliate CTAs placed at maximum-intent moments. ## When to Use - User wants to compare two or three competing products side by side - User has two affiliate programs and wants a single article that covers both - User says "vs", "versus", "compare", "which is better", "side by side" - User wants to capture high-intent search traffic (X vs Y searches convert at 2-3x the rate of generic reviews) - User has a product from S1 and wants to frame it against competitors ## Workflow ### Step 1: Identify Products to Compare Parse the user's request for product names. You need a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 3 products. **If only 1 product is provided:** - Use `web_search` to find the top 1-2 competitors - Search: `"[product name] alternatives" OR "[product name] vs" site:g2.com OR site:capterra.com OR site:trustradius.com` - Pick the competitors with the most head-to-head search volume **If 3+ products are provided:**

How do I install it?

Where does this skill come from?
From Affitor/affiliate-skills, a repository with 586 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
