Lecture on Automating Blog Content with AI Agents

Overview

Risks and Considerations

• High-quality, relevant content might avoid penalties.

Workflow Setup

• Keyword Research & Content Ideas:
  • SER API gives search results in JSON.
  • Perplexity's Sonar and OpenAI's search model for information gathering.
• Workflow Options:
  • Manual keyword research offers more control.
  • Automated approach using AI for content ideas is less controlled but autonomous.

Creating the Workflow

• Setup Steps:

  • Create an account on NAN, set up OpenAI credentials.
  • Use AI to generate topics, plan posts, and research keywords.
  • Include a system prompt for task instructions.

• Research and Citations:

  • AI agents should find statistics, facts, and unique insights.
  • Requires additional AI agents for deeper topic research and accessing internal knowledge.

Maintaining Content Uniqueness

• Store summaries of past posts to prevent duplication.
• Use a knowledge base like 8base for internal data.

Writing the Blog Post

• Use AI models like OpenAI’s 03 Mini for content writing.
• Ensure the inclusion of statistics and references.
• Importance of unique insights from internal knowledge.

Thumbnail Creation

• Advanced solution using NodeJS and canvas library for custom thumbnails.

Publishing

• Posts are published through systems like Strappy or directly via GitHub.
• Include social media publishing through tools like Feed Hive.

Conclusion

• The system is fully automated but risky.
• Not recommended if SEO is a critical business channel.
