Generate Google API Key

Generating a Google API key is a straightforward process. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you create your API key:

1. Open your web browser and go to https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey page.

Language

Express Mode boasts support for an impressive 42 languages.

The supported languages include Afrikaans, Arabic, Armenian, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.

By default, the plugin is set to the English language. However, you can easily change the language, style, and tone to suit your needs by navigating to the Language, Style and Tone tab.

In this easy-to-follow tutorial, we'll show you how to change the language for the Content Writer in just a few steps.

• To begin, go to your dashboard and locate the plugin menu.
• In the menu, click on the Settings option, and then choose the Content tab.
• Inside the Content tab, you will find a section titled Writing & Format This is where you can modify the language settings.
• In the "Writing & Format" section, locate the dropdown list called Language. Click on it to reveal the available language options. Select the language you want to use for your content.
• After choosing your desired language, click on the Save button to apply your selection. Your chosen language will now be set as the default for both the Content Writer and Auto Content Writer features.

Adding headings to your content is an essential way to structure your article or blog post, making it more readable and navigable for your readers.

Number of Headings

You can specify how many headings you would like to include in your content.

The default number is 3, but you can choose anywhere between 1 and 15 headings.

However, please note that each request to generate ideas or outlines for a heading will take around 20 seconds. Therefore, we recommend keeping the number of headings between 1 to 5 to avoid longer content generation durations, which may result in a timeout if the server has a limit on the length of time a request can take.

The number of headings determines the number of ideas or outlines that will be generated.

For example, if you enter the title "Mobile Phones" and specify 5 headings, the plugin will send a request to OpenAI and get 5 ideas or outlines for an article about mobile phones.

INFO

Keep in mind that a higher number of headings will require more requests to the server, which may result in longer waiting times and possible timeouts.

To set the number of headings in your content:

• Go to Settings - Content in the plugin menu and find the Headings section.
• Enter a value between 1 and 15 in the Number of Headings field. For example, if you enter 5, will generate your content with 5 headings.
• Click Save to apply the changes.

Heading Tag

To choose the appropriate heading tag for your content:

• Go to Settings - Content in the plugin menu and find the Headings section.
• From the dropdown list called Heading Tags, select your desired tag. Options range from H1 to H6.
• Click Save to apply the selected tag to your headings.

You can add images to your content using OpenAI’s DALL-E model, Pexels or Pixabay.

Here's an overview of the four available options for adding images to your content:

• DALL-E (AI-generated images): Create unique and contextually relevant images using OpenAI's DALL-E model.
• Pexels: Access a vast library of high-quality and royalty-free images from the Pexels platform.
• Pixabay: Utilize the extensive collection of free-to-use images available on Pixabay.
• None: Choose this option if you don't want to add any images to your content.

Adding an Image

• Go to Settings - Image tab.
• Select the Image Source you want to use. This will add an image to the content.

Please note the distinction between the two image sources:

• Image Source: This option determines which platform (DALL-E, Pexels, Pixabay, or None) will be used to insert images directly into your post. The selected images will be added to your content based on the configured settings.
• Featured Image Source: This option determines the source of the featured image for your post. The featured image typically serves as a visual representation of the post's content and is displayed prominently on your website, such as in the blog index or social media previews.

Understanding the difference between these two settings will help you better manage the visual elements of your content and create a more engaging user experience.

Using DALL-E

Note: Make sure you have already entered your OpenAI API key in the Settings - AI Engine tab API Key field, as the DALL-E image generation works with the API key.

• Go to the Settings - Image tab and select the DALL-E image source.

Image Size

For DALL-E 2, you can choose from three image sizes:

• Small (256 x 256)
• Medium (512 x 512)
• Large (1024 x 1024)

However, DALL-E 3 introduces additional sizes and the option for HD quality:

• Large (1024 x 1024)
• Wide (1792 x 1024)
• Tall (1024 x 1792)

The HD quality is available when using the DALL-E 3 HD model.

SEO Optimization

Shorten URL

The Shorten URL feature will automatically compress the URL of your generated content, making it easier to share and more appealing to potential visitors.

Go to Settings -> SEO tab in the plugin menu and look for the Shorten URL checkbox. Check it to enable and uncheck it to disable the feature.

Generate Title from Keywords

This feature automatically generates a compelling and SEO-friendly title for your content, based on the keywords you provide.

Navigate to Settings -> SEO tab in the plugin menu. Here you'll find the Generate Title from Keywords checkbox. Enable it by checking the box and disable it by unchecking.

Include Original Title in the Prompt

This feature allows you to integrate the original title of your content into the generation prompt.

This is especially useful for retaining the core essence or subject matter of your content while generating new variations or extensions of the title for SEO purposes.

Example:

• Original Title: How to Grow Indoor Plants
• Keywords: Houseplants, Growth, Tips
• Generated Title without Original Title in Prompt: The Ultimate Guide to Houseplant Growth: Tips and Tricks
• Generated Title with Original Title in Prompt: How to Grow Indoor Plants: Essential Tips for Thriving Houseplants

By incorporating the original title into the prompt, you're more likely to generate a title that is closely aligned with the original content, making it relevant while still being optimized for SEO.

This feature is particularly useful for content creators who want to refresh older content titles without straying too far from the original topic or focus.

Enforce Focus Keyword in URL

When enabled, this feature ensures that your focus keyword is included in the URL of your generated content, enhancing SEO value.

However, it's essential to note that this feature will only work if you have added keywords in your content generation process.

To toggle this feature, go to Settings -> SEO tab in the plugin menu and find the Enforce Focus Keyword in URL checkbox. Check to enable, uncheck to disable.

Use Sentiment in Title

This feature aims to make your title more clickable by incorporating words or phrases that evoke strong emotions.

Use Power Word in Title

Power Words are proven to make titles more compelling and can significantly increase click-through rates. This feature ensures that at least one Power Word is included in your title.

Navigate to Settings -> SEO tab in the plugin menu. Here you'll find the Use Power Word in Title checkbox. Enable this feature by checking the box and disable it by unchecking.

Express Mode is a feature that allows you to generate content in a single click.

It is a great way to get started.

To use Express Mode, follow these three easy steps:

• Navigate to Settings - AI Engine and input your OpenAI API key.
• Proceed to Content Writer - Express Mode and type in your post title.
• Click the Generate button.

A popup window will appear, indicating that your content is being generated. Wait for the process to complete. Once ready, click save draft.

That's it. Your content is ready now!

You can add specific keywords to your content.

This can be useful if you want to ensure that your content covers certain topics or concepts in a more prominent way.

The effective use of keywords is essential for creating high-quality, SEO-friendly content.

By incorporating relevant keywords into your content, you can improve your search engine rankings, drive more organic traffic to your website, and better meet the needs of your target audience.

Our content writer offers three distinct features for managing keywords:

• Add Keywords
• Avoid Keywords
• Make Keywords Bold

Add Keywords

To add specific keywords to your content:

• Go to Content Writer - Express Mode.
• Navigate to the Keywords tab on the right side.
• Use a comma to separate keywords and add them to the Add Keywords field.

For example, if you want to cover the topics of "mobile phones" and "smartphones," you would enter "battery life, cost" as the keywords.

INFO

When you enter keywords, we add an extra instruction to the prompt sent to the GPT model to produce content with those keywords. However, GPT models do not necessarily follow the instructions all the time. The inclusion of keywords depends on the GPT model and is not guaranteed. If you don't see your keywords in the generated content, it's probably because the GPT model did not adhere to your instructions.

Avoid Keywords

To avoid certain keywords in your content:

• Go to Content Writer - Express Mode.
• Navigate to the Keywords tab on the right side.
• Use a comma to separate keywords and add them to the Avoid Keywords field.

This will ensure that the specified keywords are not included in the generated content.

INFO

When you enter keywords, we add an extra instruction to the prompt sent to the GPT model to produce content without those keywords. However, GPT models do not necessarily follow the instructions all the time. The exlusion of keywords depends on the GPT model and is not guaranteed. If you still see your keywords in the generated content, it's probably because the GPT model did not adhere to your instructions.

Make Keywords Bold

To make your keywords stand out by making them bold:

• Go to Content Writer - Express Mode.
• Navigate to the Keywords tab on the right side.
• Put a tick in the checkbox next to Make Keywords Bold.

Now, whenever your specified keywords appear in the generated content, they will be bold.

AutoBlog AI is a powerful module in our plugin that leverages the latest GPT-4 models to automate various tasks.

AutoGPT is comprised of GPT Agents, which function alongside server-side cron jobs to manage and execute tasks.

With AutoGPT, you can significantly enhance your content creation, management, and optimization processes, saving both time and effort.

This tool include Bulk Editor, CSV, Copy-Paste catering to different content generation needs and preferences.

The Bulk Editor is a robust tool that enables you to produce multiple articles simultaneously, saving you valuable time and energy.

Once you enter your desired titles and hit the generate button in the Bulk Editor, our plugin takes those titles and uses default content settings from the Settings - Content tab to generate the content.

Please note that the time it takes to generate the content depends on the availability of the OpenAI API and the number of articles you have requested. Generating a single article can take around 3 to 5 minutes, which means that if you have entered five titles, it might take around 20-25 minutes to generate all of them.

Once you hit generate, that batch of titles will be added to the queue and wait to be processed.

You don't need to wait until that batch is completed before adding more batches to the queue.

Can add up to 20 titles per batch.

If you have multiple batches in the queue, the content generation process may take some time.

However, you can monitor the progress of each batch in the Queue tab and cancel a batch if it's taking longer than expected or if you no longer need the content.

Setup

To use this feature, simply follow these steps:

• Once you are in the Bulk Editor tab, input your desired title, choose whether to save the content as a draft or publish it immediately, select the post category, author and enter tags, anchor text, target url, call to action link and click the Generate button. 

• You can also click on +More link to enrich your content with keywords and links. 

The CSV feature in the AutoGPT plugin allows you to easily generate content for multiple titles by simply uploading a CSV file.

This powerful feature simplifies the content creation process and saves you time.

How It Works?

Once you upload your titles in a csv and hit the generate button in the CSV module, our plugin takes those titles and uses default content settings from the Settings - Content tab to generate the content. The content generation process is triggered by the Cron Job that you have set up.

Please note that the time it takes to generate the content depends on the availability of the OpenAI API and the number of articles you have requested. Generating a single article can take around 3 to 5 minutes, which means that if you have entered five titles, it might take around 20-25 minutes to generate all of them.

It's important to keep in mind that if your Cron Job is set to run every minute, it means that the generation process will be triggered every minute. However, if the previous job has not yet completed, the new job will be added to the queue and will be processed after the current job is completed.

INFO

The CSV module retrieves its default values from the Settings - Content tab. Before running a job, please ensure that you have adjusted your content settings in the Content tab to match your desired output and preferences.

Once you hit generate, that batch of titles will be added to the queue and wait to be processed.

You don't need to wait until that batch is completed before adding more batches to the queue.

If you have multiple batches in the queue, the content generation process may take some time.

However, you can monitor the progress of each batch in the Queue tab and cancel a batch if it's taking longer than expected or if you no longer need the content.

Setup

To take advantage of the CSV feature, follow these steps:

• Upload a CSV file containing the title value for each line in the CSV tab and choose whether to save the content as a draft or publish it immediately, select the post category, author and click the Generate button.
• You can monitor the progress of your content creation in the Queue tab.

Since the CSV module works with only one title per line, there isn't a need for a sample file.

However, the structure of the CSV file should look like this:

Please make sure your CSV delimiter is comma.

The Copy-Paste module in the AutoGPT plugin allows you to easily generate content for multiple titles by simply pasting the titles directly into the text box.

This feature simplifies the content creation process and saves you time.

How It Works?

Once you enter your desired titles and hit the generate button in the Copy-Paste, our plugin takes those titles and uses default content settings from the Settings - Content tab to generate the content. The content generation process is triggered by the Cron Job that you have set up.

Please note that the time it takes to generate the content depends on the availability of the OpenAI API and the number of articles you have requested. Generating a single article can take around 3 to 5 minutes, which means that if you have entered five titles, it might take around 20-25 minutes to generate all of them.

It's important to keep in mind that if your Cron Job is set to run every minute, it means that the generation process will be triggered every minute. However, if the previous job has not yet completed, the new job will be added to the queue and will be processed after the current job is completed.

INFO

The Copy-Paste module retrieves its default values from the Settings - Content tab. Before running a job, please ensure that you have adjusted your content settings in the Content tab to match your desired output and preferences.

Once you hit generate, that batch of titles will be added to the queue and wait to be processed.

You don't need to wait until that batch is completed before adding more batches to the queue.

You can continue to add batches to the queue until you reach the maximum limit allowed by your plan.

If you have multiple batches in the queue, the content generation process may take some time.

However, you can monitor the progress of each batch in the Queue tab and cancel a batch if it's taking longer than expected or if you no longer need the content.

Setup

To take advantage of the Copy-Paste module, follow these steps:

• Paste the desired titles into the text box, with one title per line, and choose whether to save the content as a draft or publish it immediately, select the post category, author and click the Generate button. Learn more about content settings here.

• You can monitor the progress of your content creation in the Queue tab.
