Test an agent on SEO research and outreach tasks
Real-world thread: SE Ranking gave ChatGPT Operator prompts in four areas: competitor analysis, SERP monitoring, keyword research, and link building. It had to pull top-10 Google and Bing results into a Google Sheet, check a sheet of referring pages for backlinks to seranking.com, and draft replies to unread link-building emails in Gmail. Simple SERP pulls and outreach drafting worked best.
