Automate Output, Maintain Human Oversight
This is recent and I have to say it’s the best gap filler I have found and I’m rolling it out to my customers. I don’t want this to be an advert for obvious reasons, so I won’t mention the AI product by name, but I will describe it and you can search out the product that’s right for you, there are a few brands doing roughly the same job.
So, what are the gaps? First, good quality detailed article content that targets medium search volume and low SEO scores. And second, a way of gaining good quality backlinks without paying disproportionate money or spending loads of time registering on directories.
This software allows me to enter my URL, it identifies your target market and your keywords (you can manually add more), and then it creates a 30-day content calendar that, to be honest, I’m shocked at. It then produces high-quality articles on the subject matter, not just 1,000 words long, but up to 5,000 words and very good quality.
You write a command like any AI, for example, include internal links and video and tables and infographics, highlight headlines in your brand colours, to name just a few of the customisable areas. However, what I’ve been experiencing over the past few weeks is that you can refine these prompts to give you very specific results.
For example, it’s always a grind to get your local SEO going and internal linking to place names and local pages does take a back seat. With this, you can ask it to link to specific local pages internally.
The second gap it’s been filling is backlinks. In just over 6 weeks, I’ve got over 50 good quality backlinks, all within my monthly payment.
So, what’s the catch, I hear you yell? Well, for now, I do have to monitor the content that’s created daily. I have to make sure that the AI gremlins don’t pop up, as in just over 40 posts, I’ve found the odd error with feature image creation and I’ve even had a Rick Astley video inserted into a post where there was no reference for it! … hahaha, love Rick.
So, what did I learn? AI technology is making it easier for us that are resource and time poor to create such powerful content and boost our SEO. My site has doubled its Ahrefs authority ranking from 15 to 31 in just 6 weeks, and I’ve just onboarded a customer with a zero rating and it’s at 1.4 within a week.
So the moral is: utilise AI, but you need to keep tweaking it and managing it, so we’re not redundant… yet!
