Give SEO campaigns a research brief before work starts
Put the search evidence and unresolved assumptions behind a campaign in one place before the team commits effort.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Doc
Creates a document in a project; its content is stored but not returned.
Why this helps
Campaign planning can begin with vague assumptions and scattered research that nobody can easily verify.
- Ground campaign discussions in returned data
- Keep assumptions visible for review
- Give collaborators a shared starting point
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ahrefs and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named for SEO campaign research briefs.
- 3Tell Notis to use the submitted campaign question and scope to research relevant Ahrefs data and document findings, evidence, assumptions, and open questions in a Dovetail doc.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real campaign question and review the doc before sharing it with collaborators.
Questions about this workflow
What should the campaign request contain?
Include the objective, site or market, topics or competitors, and the decision the research should inform.
Does the brief prove campaign impact?
No. It captures available research to inform planning; impact requires later measurement and an appropriate baseline.
