Article Writer

Before you can generate and publish articles, complete these setup steps:

Checklist

1. Install the WordPress Plugin (recommended for SEO fields) — See tutorial
2. Connect your WordPress site with an Application Password — See tutorial
3. Set up your sitemap (for automatic internal links) — See tutorial
4. Have enough credits — Article generation costs 10 credits

The Article Writer is the home page of the dashboard. It generates a single SEO-optimized article using AI.

Steps

1. Select your WordPress Site from the dropdown (or choose "+ Add a website" to connect one)
2. Enter your Keyword / Topic — this is the main subject (e.g. "best running shoes for beginners")
3. Optionally add Extra Instructions — tone, sub-topics, examples, specific requirements (e.g. "include a comparison table", "write in a casual tone", "target 2000 words")
4. Select a Target Country for research localization
5. Select the Article Language
6. Select options, if you want to add external link, infographic or featured image
7. Click Generate Article

Generation Process

You'll see a progress timeline as the AI works through several phases:

1. Research & scraping — Gathers information from the web
2. Building prompt — Creates a tailored writing prompt
3. Writing article — AI generates the full article
4. Processing — Adds internal links, formats HTML
5. Featured image — Generates an AI featured image
6. Infographic — Generates an infographic
7. Finalizing — Prepares for preview

The full process takes about 60–120 seconds.

After the article is generated, you'll see a full preview with metadata fields you can edit.

With a WordPress Site Connected

A metadata card appears above the preview with:

• Title — The article title (editable, max 55 characters for SEO)
• Slug — The URL path (auto-generated, editable)
• Meta Description — SEO description (editable, max 160 characters)
• Category — Select from your WordPress categories
• Publish Status — "Save as Draft" or "Publish"

You have two options:

• Publish to WordPress — Immediately sends the article to your site
• Schedule — Pick a date and time to publish later (opens a quick scheduling modal)

Without a WordPress Site

If no site is selected, you can Download as DOCX to save the article as a Word file for use elsewhere.

When a sitemap is configured, WP Auto Post automatically adds relevant internal links to generated articles.

How It Works

1. During article generation, the system fetches your sitemap
2. It finds the most relevant existing pages on your site
3. It naturally inserts 2–3 internal links distributed across different sections of the article

Requirements

• Your Post Sitemap URL must be set in your site settings — See tutorial
• The sitemap must be publicly accessible
