Why Bulk Generation Isn't Full Automation

SEOWriting.ai's bulk generation feature is appealing: upload a spreadsheet of keywords and get 50 articles back. But "generate articles" is only one step in the SEO content pipeline. You still need to do the work that comes before and after.

Before generation, you need keyword research. Which keywords should you target? What search volumes matter? What does the competition look like? This research alone takes 5-10 hours to do properly and requires paid tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush.

After generation, you need quality control. Bulk-generated articles vary in quality, and some will need editing. You need to review each one, fix formatting issues, verify accuracy, and ensure the WordPress auto-post didn't break anything.

FirstSearch eliminates every step. Keyword research, content planning, article writing, SEO optimization, image generation, and CMS publishing all happen automatically. You sign up once, and your website receives 30 optimized articles per month from that point forward.

30 Articles Per Month. Zero Keyword Lists. Zero Monitoring.

Stop building keyword spreadsheets and babysitting auto-posts. FirstSearch handles the entire SEO content pipeline from research to publishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is FirstSearch different from SEOWriting.ai?

SEOWriting.ai is a content generation tool where you supply keywords, configure article settings, and generate articles in bulk. You still need to find keywords, review the output, and manage the publishing process. FirstSearch is a fully automated service: it researches keywords for your niche, creates a content calendar, writes articles daily, optimizes for SEO, and publishes directly to your CMS. No input required after initial setup.

SEOWriting.ai has WordPress auto-posting. Isn't that the same as FirstSearch?

SEOWriting.ai can auto-post to WordPress, but you still need to provide keywords, trigger generation, and monitor output quality. The auto-posting only handles the final publish step. FirstSearch automates the entire pipeline: keyword research, content planning, article writing, SEO optimization, image generation, and publishing. It works with WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, and any CMS that accepts webhooks.

SEOWriting.ai is much cheaper. Why would I pay more for FirstSearch?

SEOWriting.ai starts at $14/month, but you need to invest 3-10 hours per month finding keywords, configuring generation, reviewing output, and managing publishing. At $50/hour for your time, that's $150-500 in labor on top of the subscription. FirstSearch at $99/month requires zero time investment. When you factor in your time, FirstSearch is typically cheaper.

Can SEOWriting.ai generate bulk articles like FirstSearch?

SEOWriting.ai supports bulk generation where you upload a list of keywords and it generates articles for each one. However, you need to compile the keyword list yourself, and the output still needs review. FirstSearch also generates articles in bulk (30 per month), but it finds the keywords for you by analyzing your website, competitors, and industry. The entire process runs without your input.

Which produces better quality content?

FirstSearch articles are longer (3,000-5,000 words vs 1,000-3,000 words) and include more SEO elements: FAQ sections with schema markup, proper heading hierarchy, internal linking suggestions, and comprehensive meta descriptions. SEOWriting.ai includes NLP keyword optimization and basic formatting. For pure SEO performance, FirstSearch's more comprehensive articles tend to rank for more keyword variations.

Can I switch from SEOWriting.ai to FirstSearch?

Yes. Sign up for FirstSearch, provide your website domain, and connect your CMS via webhook. FirstSearch will analyze your site and begin generating content within 24-48 hours. There's no migration process because FirstSearch creates new content based on fresh keyword research. You can cancel SEOWriting.ai right away or keep it for other content needs.
