Quick Start
Add your website, configure a webhook, and receive your first AI-generated SEO article in minutes.
Overview
FirstSearch.AI generates keyword-targeted SEO articles and delivers them directly to your website via webhook. Here's the setup flow:
1. Add Your Website
After signing up, add your website domain. The system will:
- - Crawl your site to understand your business, niche, and target audience
- - Discover your competitors in the same niche
- - Extract your existing content for internal linking
- - Build a business profile that guides all future content
2. Connect Your CMS
Go to Settings → Integration and add a webhook URL. This is the endpoint on your server where FirstSearch.AI will POST completed articles.
Webhook URL: https://yoursite.com/api/firstsearch-webhook
Secret: auto-generated (copy and store as an environment variable)Click Test Connection to verify your endpoint receives requests correctly. For detailed setup instructions including code examples, see the Webhook Integration guide.
3. Content Calendar
After onboarding, the system runs keyword research for your niche and creates a content calendar with 45 articles scheduled over the next 45 days. Each article targets a specific keyword selected for:
- - Search volume — real monthly search demand
- - Difficulty — realistic ranking opportunity for your domain authority
- - Intent match — informational queries your audience is searching
- - Uniqueness — no keyword cannibalization across your calendar
You can review, reorder, or replace keywords in the calendar before generation starts.
4. Article Delivery
Every day at 00:05 UTC, the system generates one article from your calendar. The full pipeline takes 3-5 minutes:
| Stage | What Happens | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Research | AI researches the topic, finds sources, plans structure | ~30s |
| Writing | Parallel section writing (2,000-3,500 words) | ~60s |
| Images | AI-generated illustrations matching article style | ~90s |
| Delivery | Webhook POST to your endpoint with full article | ~1s |
Each delivery includes the article content (Markdown), SEO metadata, AI-generated images, structured data (JSON-LD), and FAQ schema. See Webhook Integration for the full payload reference.
