Now, for a more detailed walkthrough:

What Automations Can Do

Automations use RightBlogger’s AI and SEO research capabilities to automatically suggest topics, generate content, and queue posts on your content calendar. Once it’s set up, you’ll receive a steady flow of new, optimized content published to your website on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule that fits your niche.

If you publish videos, automations can also turn your YouTube uploads into full blog posts that embed your video automatically.

Getting Started with Automations

Before you create your first automation, you’ll want to make sure your website or platform is connected to your RightBlogger project. This allows us to schedule drafts or published posts directly to your site.

If you haven’t connected a site yet, head to Projects → Integrations and follow the steps for WordPress, Webflow, Ghost, or your preferred CMS.

Once you have an active integration, you’re ready to go.

How to Create Your First Automation

Open the Content Planner: You’ll find the planner in the left sidebar of your RightBlogger dashboard. This is where all scheduled and automated content will appear.
Click the “Automation” Button: In the top-left corner of the planner, click Automation to start creating your first automated workflow.
Add Your Website URL: Enter the homepage URL of the site you want to publish to. This ensures your automation stays tied to the correct project.
Choose Your Publishing Frequency: Select how often you want new content to be published Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. RightBlogger will automatically suggest keyword-backed topics that have real search demand based on your niche.
Select Your Publishing Integration: Choose which connected platform the automation should send posts to—perfect if you run multiple sites or projects.
Create Your Automation: Hit Create Automation and you’re done. RightBlogger will begin generating topics and scheduling content on your calendar using the frequency you selected.

Optional: YouTube → Blog Automations

If you publish on YouTube, you can also create an automation that converts every new video into a fully formatted blog post.

Just select the YouTube tab while creating an automation, connect your channel, and RightBlogger will handle the rest—embedding your video and creating long-form content for your website automatically.

Editing and Optimizing Your Automated Posts

Once your automation starts publishing content to your planner, you’ll see new auto-generated posts populate your calendar. This will happen at the frequency you choose.

You can:

Click any scheduled post to open it
Edit the draft inside Article Writer
Run an SEO Report
Use Auto-Optimize to improve rankings
Add your own stories, examples, and personal insights
Have the edited version be published

We still recommend reviewing posts before they go live. Your voice and lived experience always help content perform better. RightBlogger handles the heavy lifting, but your perspective makes the content shine.

That’s why our automations by default will send you an email when they are drafted.

Do I need to connect my website before I can use RightBlogger Automations?

Yes. You need an active CMS integration so RightBlogger can send drafts or published posts to the right site.

Go to Projects, then Integrations, and connect your platform. RightBlogger supports common options like WordPress, Webflow, and Ghost.

Once your site is connected, your automation can schedule posts straight into your Content Planner. If you manage more than one site, you can pick the exact integration you want each automation to use.

How does RightBlogger pick topics and keywords for an automation?

RightBlogger suggests topics based on your niche and real search demand. This helps you publish posts that are more likely to bring in SEO traffic over time.

When you choose a frequency like daily, weekly, or monthly, the automation fills your calendar with keyword backed ideas. That means you do not have to start from a blank page every time.

You can still review and edit each draft before it goes live. Adding your own examples and experience can make the post more useful and more trustworthy for readers.

How do I create my first automation in the Content Planner?

Open the Content Planner, click Automation, and enter your website URL. Then choose how often you want posts to be created and select the connected platform you want to publish to.

After you click Create Automation, RightBlogger starts generating topics and scheduling content on your calendar. You will see new drafts appear based on the frequency you picked.

If you want more control over timing, you can also adjust scheduled items in the planner. Related guide: How scheduling works in RightBlogger.

Can RightBlogger turn my YouTube videos into blog posts automatically?

Yes. You can create a YouTube to blog automation that converts new uploads into long form posts.

During setup, choose the YouTube tab, connect your channel, and RightBlogger handles the workflow. Your post can include an embedded video and written content designed for search.

This is a strong way to repurpose content you already made, without rewriting everything by hand. It can also help your site get more traffic from Google and more citations from AI tools.

Should I edit automated posts before they publish, and what tools help with SEO?

Yes, it is smart to review automated drafts before they go live. RightBlogger can do the heavy lifting, but your voice, stories, and details help posts perform better.

You can open any scheduled post and edit it in the RightBlogger AI Article Writer. This is where you can improve clarity, add examples, and match your style.

For SEO, run a report and fix the biggest gaps first. If you want faster improvements, use Auto Optimize to improve on page SEO and then do a quick final review.
