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.

What are Automations in RightBlogger, and what do they do?

Automations in RightBlogger create a repeatable publishing workflow that suggests topics, generates content, and schedules posts on your content calendar.

Once you set one up, RightBlogger keeps your blog moving with new posts on a Daily, Weekly, or Monthly schedule. This helps you stay consistent without doing all the manual planning every time.

Automations can focus on keyword and SEO-driven topics, or they can repurpose your YouTube videos into blog posts. For a step-by-step overview, see the Automations help guide.

Do I need to connect my website before I start an automation?

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

To set it up, go to Projects, open Integrations, and connect your CMS. RightBlogger supports WordPress and other platforms, so you can pick what matches your site.

If you are on WordPress, follow the WordPress integration setup. If you use another platform, check the supported options in CMS integrations.

How does RightBlogger pick topics and keywords for an automation?

RightBlogger uses AI plus SEO research to suggest topics that fit your niche and have real search demand. This helps you publish posts that are more likely to bring in traffic.

When you choose your publishing frequency, the automation fills your calendar with keyword-backed ideas and drafts. You can then review each scheduled post and adjust the topic angle before it goes live.

For best results, add your own examples and experience to each draft. That extra detail helps your content stand out and feel more helpful than generic AI writing.

Can I automatically turn my YouTube videos into blog posts?

Yes. RightBlogger can create an automation that converts each new YouTube upload into a full blog post.

When you choose the YouTube option during setup and connect your channel, RightBlogger will generate long-form content and embed your video in the post. This lets one video do double duty across YouTube and your website.

This is also a simple way to build SEO content faster, since your video topics often match what people search for. You still get a draft you can edit before publishing so it matches your style and message.

Can I edit automated posts before they publish?

Yes. You can open any scheduled post from the Content Planner and edit it before it goes live.

RightBlogger recommends reviewing drafts because your voice, stories, and real examples usually improve trust and rankings. Automations also send an email when a draft is ready, so you can quickly check it.

To improve the post’s on-page SEO, you can run a report and then refine the content. Learn more about SEO Reports in RightBlogger and how Auto Optimize improves content for SEO.

What is the fastest way to set up my first automation in the Content Planner?

The fastest setup is: open the Content Planner, click the Automation button, add your website URL, choose a frequency, pick your publishing integration, then create the automation.

After that, RightBlogger starts generating topics and placing scheduled content on your calendar. You can click any item to review, edit, and polish it before publishing.
