If I launched a brand-new website today with zero authority, I would prioritize them in this exact order: 1. Technical SEO, 2. Topical Authority, 3. Content, 4. AI/AEO Optimization, 5. Branding, 6. Backlinks.A successful 90-day roadmap focuses on establishing undeniable, niche expertise and laying the groundwork for AI engines to cite you before aggressively pursuing manual link building

The focus on topical authority before link building makes a lot of sense. Have you seen this approach work faster in competitive niches too?
