In this guide, I’ll show you how to generate more than 30 blog posts in under an hour using AI and automation. These aren’t just random question-and-answer posts; they’re strategic, money-making posts. We’ll focus on two types of posts—transactional posts designed for affiliate revenue and informational posts optimized for ad revenue and building your email list. Ready to dive in? Let’s get started!
Step 1: Keyword Research for Transactional and Informational Posts
To kick off the process, we need to identify both transactional (affiliate) and informational keywords. This is essential for earning through affiliate commissions and ads while boosting your topical authority. I’ll be using the niche of snowmobiling, but this method works for any niche.
Start by using a keyword tool like Ahrefs to find “buyer intent” keywords—keywords that indicate people are ready to purchase. For snowmobiling, examples include “best snowmobile helmets,” “best snowmobile gloves,” and “best snowmobile boots.” These types of keywords show that the user is ready to buy, and creating comparison articles around them can generate affiliate revenue.
Next, search for informational keywords. In our snowmobiling example, this would include queries like “how much does a snowmobile cost,” “how to store a snowmobile,” or “how fast can a snowmobile go.” These keywords are less competitive, easy to rank for, and will drive traffic that can convert to email sign-ups or ad revenue.
Step 2: Clean Up and Organize Your Keyword List
After exporting your keyword list, you’ll need to clean it up. Remove duplicates and irrelevant keywords. For example, if you’ve exported a list of 1,600 keywords and find that several are the same, sort by search volume and remove duplicates. For our snowmobiling example, I ended up with 15 transactional keywords and 15 informational keywords.
Some keywords might need manual filtering. For example, “snowmobile tours” would not be useful if you’re not in the business of organizing tours. Delete anything that isn’t relevant to your content strategy.
Step 3: Organize Content for Maximum Efficiency
Once you have a list of cleaned-up keywords, split them into different categories. In my snowmobiling niche, I categorized posts into two pillars:
- Pillar 1: Transactional Content – Example: “Best Snowmobile Helmets.”
- Pillar 2: Informational Content – Example: “How Fast Can a Snowmobile Go?”
- Add Personal Experience: If you’re writing about snowmobiles, mention your own experience with snowmobile helmets, gloves, or boots. Personal stories help build trust.
- Include Unique Images: Take real photos, if possible, of the gear you’ve used. Custom images add authenticity and help your content stand out.
- Avoid Overused Jargon: AI-generated content often includes generic phrases like “in today’s digital age.” Replace these with engaging language.
- Make It Relatable: Add empathy to your posts. For example, when talking about snowmobiling gear, mention how overwhelming it can be for beginners. Relatable content is more likely to engage readers.
