Tools You need

Following are the tools you need to get started;

• SurferSEO Account
• Zimmwriter App
• OpenAI API

Step1 – Create a Draft For your Keyword in SurferSEO’s Content Editor

We first need to paint a draft for our keyword to create content around it. To do the same follow the simple steps below;

Log into your SurferSEO account and select ‘Content Editor’ from the left sidebar menu.

To create a new content draft you need to enter your keyword in the ‘Keyword’ field at the top of the page.

Next, Choose the type of crawler and region for your content.

Once you’re done, click on “create content editor” to start creating draft for your content as below;

You will now be taken to the Content Editor where you can begin writing your draft with the help of SurferSEO’s features such as Page Analyzer, Keyword Density Checker, Insights, etc.

Step2: Create an SEO Blog Post in Zimmwriter

Once you are done with the draft in SurferSEO, Open Zimmwriter and select ‘SEO Blog Writer’ from the main menu, and now a new interface will open like below;

Here in the first option of “Set Blog post Title” You need to enter the Long tail Keyword which you have researched above;

Number of Headings

Next, you need to select several headings you want to include. Now you must be wondering how to determine the same right?

Well, the easiest way is to Google your researched keyword, see how many headings are used by the top 10 ranking websites, and use the same in your blog post.

You can use Chrome extensions like “HeadingsMap” to strip down the headings count of any page as above.

You can also get ideas from SurferSEO insights while writing your draft to determine what kind of content is ranking on top for specific keywords; this way you can easily build an SEO-optimized Blog post.

On the right side of your SurferSEO panel, there’s a range of sets of headings you can include in the Zimmwriter, as you can see below;

I suggest you include the initial set of headings, i.e. in the above example, 26.

H2 SubHeadings Data

Next, You need to select Set H2 Subheading Data in the next section, For this, you have three options available:

Option 1: Copy H2 From Clipboard

If you have your headings sorted already, then all you need to do is to copy the headings from your sheet or doc and click option 1 from the menu, and it will get pasted as below;

If you want to add manually, then you can start adding in the following fields:

To enable H2 Background, all you need to do is to check “H2 Background” and start adding background information for each subheading as below;

Option 2: Generate H2 Using Only AI

If you want to let ChatGPT handles everything, then you need to do anything select this option and let the tool generate H2 Subheadings for your content all by itself like below;

Note: The accuracy won’t be guaranteed if you are producing content about facts, informational or educational. Therefore, you must evaluate the content before jumping to the next step.

Option 3: Generate H2 using AI + Competition H2/H3

This is the most preferred option, as you can let the AI generate H2 headings and get an idea of what competitors are writing about similar topics.

It will give an edge to your content as you can easily compare & contrast with other articles on a specific topic.

To do that, You need to enter Subheading data from SurferSEO; You need to click on the heading tab on the right as below;

Copy and paste the data into the input section as below;

And now click option 3, and Zimmwriter will start generating relevant titles for your content.

Configure Options

After you’ve done with the Subheadings part, now we need to configure options in Zimmwriter’s SEO Blog post.

The first option is to select H2 Section length, I suggest you use “Medium” if the content is long-form and use “Short” if the format of the content is listicles.

Tone of Voice

Next is to choose the tone of the voice, you need to select the tone that best fits your content. Here are three types of voice available below;

• Very Personal
• Personal
• Professional

Now how to select this for your content?

If it’s informal content like a travel blog, you should go with the Very Personal Tone. If it is something educational or informational, then a Professional tone will work best.

For other types of content between these two, you can select personal as this balances personal and professional tones.

Literary Devices

The next option is if you want to enable Literary Devices or not.

Literary Devices means usage of metaphors, Similes, etc

This one is the most important option, If you are writing a blog post to educate or inform, then I suggest you leave this checkbox unchecked as it won’t add any value to your content.

But if you are writing something entertaining, you can enable this by selecting the checkbox and your AI-powered content will be enriched with literary devices.

Enable Lists

The next option is to enable Lists i.e. Unordered or ordered list items for each subheadings.

This feature is helpful when you want to list down points in the form of bullets or numbering during the content.

To enable it, just check the box and select either Unordered Lists or Ordered lists as below;

It boosts 40% of chance to add markdown bullet and numeric lists in an H2.

Enable Tables

The next option is to enable Tables, this feature is helpful when you want to compare products or services or even display data using tables.

To enable the Table options, select the checkbox and enter the number of rows and columns as required in your content as below;

Zimmwriter will start adding markdown tables in an H2 Subheadings.

Enable FAQs

The next option is to enable FAQs, this feature is helpful when you want to add FAQ data like a Q&A.

To enable the FAQ options, select the checkbox and enter the number of questions that you want in your content as below;

Zimmwriter will add 5 Questions in FAQ section which adds another 600 words.

Enable Tease

Enable tease to include a transition paragraph at the end of H2 sections that adds ~35 words per H2 Subheadings.

This feature is helpful when you want to include a transition paragraph that adds context between the subheadings and subtly encourage readers to read the next point.

To enable the Tease option, select the checkbox as below;

Enable Boost Chance of Detection as Real Writer

The next option is to enable Boost Chance of Detection as Real Writer, this feature is helpful when you want your content to pass the AI Detection tools for detecting AI content.

To enable the Boost Chance of Detection as a Real Writer option, select the checkbox below;

Disable Skinny Paragraphs

The last option is to disable Skinny Paragraphs, this feature is helpful when you want to ensure that no single paragraph in the content is written with 2 or less sentences.

To enable the Disable Skinny Paragraphs option, select the checkbox below;

Audience Personality

Audience personality takes 12 Brand Archetypes as personality traits to represent your content. Now you must be wondering what are these 12 Brand Archetypes right?

These 12 Brand Archetypes are divided into four categories as below;

1. Caregiver – Nurturer, Supporter

2. Creator – Innovator, Designer

3. Explorer – Adventurer, Seeker

4. Hero – Achiever, Winner

5. Jester – Entertainer, Comedian

6. Magician – Teacher, Transformer

7. Lover – Companion, Romantic

8. Outlaw – Rebel, Rulebreaker

9. Ruler – Leader, Manager

10. Sage – Scholar, Expert

11. Everyman/Everywoman- Relatable

12. Sovereign – Patriotic, Powerful

So select the Audience Personality as per your need and make sure you choose the one that best suits your content.

For example, if you’re writing content about “Dogs”, then most probably your caregiver or if you are writing something about United State’s LAWS, then you are a Powerful or Patriotic person; therefore, selecting the right audience personality; your content can reach more people as it will be presented in a better way.

By selecting the Brand Archetypes, Zimmwriter AI-powered content will be enriched with related personality traits and tone of voice.

Write In The Style of

This option may duplicate the content writing style i.e. if you want to write in the style of AI Capone, then Zimmwriter can guide the AI to write in his style.

If this interests you, then do mention the name of the style in the field box.

I suggest you use Auto style if you are not aware of this option as below;

Option to Choose the Best Article

This is something which you will love; the next option will enable Zimmwriter to generate 2 versions of the article and let the AI compare both articles and picks the best one.

I personally use this because it does give the best outcome.

To enable this, you need to select the following option “Use Best of 2 for H2+FAQ”;

Warning: Please be assured that if you enable this option, Zimmwriter will make two versions of your article therefore, it will eat x2 times of your API Credits. So if you are ok with this, then keep this option select or leave it.

Translate Your Article to Non-English Languages

Zimmwriter can also help you to translate your article into non-English languages. This is helpful if you want to reach a wider audience who do not understand English.

To enable this, select the checkbox below;

Please not that it is still in beta testing and works best with GPT-4 API.

Set Semantic Keywords (Most Important)

In this section below, you need to add all those surferSEO Keywords from Content editor such that Zimmwriter will use all these terms in their content.

To do this, open your content editor draft of the keyword which you have generated in the STEP1 and select and copy all the terms on the right as below;

Now paste them into Zimmwriter in Manual keywords section as below;

Now, set the number of Keywords per H2 section to 7 as below;

Select GPT Model

In this section, you need to select the GPT model which is best for your content. For instance; if you want to write a blog post, then I suggest selecting GPT-4 for better results.

To enable this option, select the GPT-4 from dropdown list below;

Now Review your settings once again to see if you have entered everything in place and when you;re ready to witness the magic, click on “Start SEO Writer”

It will take some time to write i.e. about 3-7 minutes.

Step 3: Check SurferSEO Score

After you successfully generate your content, you will see output like this;

It has the summary for you i.e. how many credits you have used and bonus Midjourney command prompt, and son on.

You just need to copy and paste everything to surferSEO and see the score for yourself;
