Short answer
Content gap analysis is the process of identifying topics or keywords that competitors rank for, or audiences search for, but a site does not yet cover. It typically compares keyword data across competing domains and maps audience questions to existing pages. The resulting gaps become a prioritized list of opportunities for new content.
