About this plugin
CXD Blog Pilot turns a short prompt into a fully structured, SEO-optimized article. It uses OpenAI for SEO planning (keywords, metadata, outlines, schema) and your choice of OpenAI or Claude for long-form writing. Articles are always saved as drafts — never auto-published.
Workflow
- Enter a topic / prompt.
- OpenAI suggests a title, keywords, category, search intent, slug, tags, tone and article type. Every field is editable.
- Pick advanced options (article type, SEO depth).
- Click Generate Article. The plugin runs a multi-step pipeline:
- Competitor research (SerpAPI, optional)
- SEO outline + heading structure (OpenAI)
- Section-by-section writing (OpenAI or Claude)
- Final humanization pass
- FAQ, JSON-LD schema, table of contents and CTA
- A quality-check layer (keyword stuffing, AI phrases, headings, readability, duplicate sentences)
- Review the result and save it as a draft.
