Watch our 11 min tutorial to get an overview of how to write a blog article with this workflow.
First, navigate to the blog article workflow. You can do this by going to 'Documents' and clicking 'Blog article'.
- 1
- Describe your topic: Add one sentence about your subject topic.
- Primary keyword: This is the primary SEO keyword you'd like to optimize your article for, and our AI will use this through the title, outline and article. We recommend doing keyword research with a tool like Ahrefs or SEMrush. Add up to 3 keywords or phrases for each article, but we recommend that you stick to one primary keyword.
- Tone: How you want your article to sound. You can choose a few options, or even describe your own tone. You can name famous people, a specific author you admire or even for who your target audience is.
Titles
Give our AI some context to generate blog title ideas:
Once you're done, click "Generate titles" to start generating some creative blog titles. Once generated, you can click on the title cards to edit them as you wish.
Optional: More customizations
Under the more customizations section, you can also add some optional additional context to help the AI write more targeted content.
Change point of view
Address your readers from a certain perspective.
- First person: The article will be written using "I" or "We"
- Second person: The article will be written using "you"
- Third person: The article will be written using "they"
Adding a call to action
- Describe your audience: Cater the blog post to your target audience. This is helpful if you'd like your audience to take an action, or to add a call to action in the article.
- Describe your brand: Adding this will give the AI information about your business to promote in the article.
- Describe your product or service: Adding this will give the AI information to weave in a specific product or service in the article. You should briefly describe its features and benefits and unique selling points.

Tips on using key points
