Make the Most Out of Content AI Free Credits for SEO Wins

If you’re a Rank Math user, then you must have come across the term Content AI. Or, if you’re new to this, then we’ll walk you through the Content AI by Rank Math. 

For starters, Content AI is a writing assistant tool that combines artificial intelligence and SEO to help you write content faster and better, within your WordPress editor. 

With this tool, you can generate amazing topic ideas and write engaging meta descriptions and introduction paragraphs following the latest SEO trends. Isn’t it exciting?

And the best part? You can start using it for free!  

But you might want to know how good this Content AI tool is. Don’t worry, we’re here to help you answer that question. 

In this article, we’ll show you what Content AI can do and how to make the most out of it for your SEO wins. 

Now, let’s get started!

A. What is Content AI by Rank Math?

Content AI is part of Rank Math’s powerful suite of AI-powered SEO tools. It integrates artificial intelligence into your SEO workflow. It’ll act as your personal assistant and help you through keyword research, title suggestions, and even content structure. 

Moreover, you don’t need to switch between multiple tools. Content AI offers everything in one place, from analyzing the focus keyword to optimal word count recommendations. 

It doesn’t just stop here,

• It’ll also help to generate image alt text.
• Headline structure
• Optimize meta descriptions
• And even calculate a content score to see how well your content is tailored to your target audience and keywords.

Rank Math and Content AI Difference?

While both Rank Math and Content AI are essential tools to optimize your website, they do have separate purposes within the SEO ecosystem. 

So, here, let’s understand the relationship between Rank Math and Content AI!

How You Can Do SEO Faster Using These Two Tools? 

Although they seem different, combining both allows you to optimize your site’s backend and individual content seamlessly. 

For example, instead of spending time writing meta titles & descriptions manually, Content AI can generate them with a single click. It’ll also find you the best keywords in your niche. Meanwhile, Rank Math will keep track of how well you’re using the keywords for better SEO. 

Moreover, the scoring system of Rank Math and Content AI works together.

Rank Math focuses on technical SEO scores like headings, meta tags, keyword usage, title readability, content readability, etc. While Content AI helps you spped up content creation with suggestions like word counts, link counts, heading counts, etc. 

It’s a perfect duo to simplify your SEO process while getting better results.    

Content AI vs Human

With the rise of AI tools, you may wonder how they compare to human expertise. We’ll break it down in the image below:

• Content AI takes a minute to perform keyword research, while humans need 30-60 minutes for manual research. 
• Content AI can generate ideas in less than a minute based on our keyword and niche, while humans require 1-2 hours to brainstorm unique and trending topics. 
• Also, it only takes a minute to get a structured outline with Content AI, but a human will need 30-45 minutes to create a detailed outline. 
• If you want to write content of 2000 words, Content AI will generate within 3-5 minutes. But with humans, it’ll take 4-6 hours, depending on the complexity and expertise of the content.
• Content AI can auto-score content quality in real-time, while it can take humans 1-2 hours to manually review and edit for grammar, style, and SEO. 

Content AI is definitely a helpful tool, and it helps our SEO work faster. However, we cannot completely depend on AI tools. We, humans, should use our intelligence to verify facts generated by AI and then only finalize the content that will be best for our respective website audience. 

B. Understanding Content AI Credits

Okay, by now, we’ve understood Content AI. You must think it might be quite expensive as it can perform these amazing tasks. Well, the answer is no; you can get it for free. 

How?

Content AI has a credit system, which means if you’re a Rank Math free user, then you’ll get 750 credits for free per month. 

Want to get the free Content AI Credits?

It’s pretty simple to get the free Content AI Credits. Simply create a free Rank Math account and connect your website with the account. 

Afterward, navigate to your WordPress dashboard and click on Rank Math > General Settings > Content AI. From there, scroll down and refresh the credits, as shown in the image below. 

And that’s it! You’ll get your monthly 750 free Content AI Credits.

D. Maximize the Utilization of Free Credits Effectively

Here, we’ll go through all the features of the Content AI free version. 

1. Single RankBot Session

RankBot is Content AI’s built-in chat assistant. This AI assistant will help you in the workflow of content creation, marketing, and research. 

To locate this feature, go to your WordPress dashboard, then click on the Rank Math SEO > Content AI > Chat tab. This is where the RankBot is.

You can also access RankBot from your content editor. 

However, if you’re in the WordPress editor and don’t see the Content AI option, then go to the General > Content AI option from your WP dashboard. There, make sure to check the post types where you want the Content AI to appear.

Once you’re done, you’ll see Content AI button on your WordPress editor, and the 3rd icon is the RankBot. 

RankBot is a great assistant, and it’ll provide you with responses that you can include in your content right away. 

Let’s see how it’s done in the video below! Make sure your prompts are within 2000 characters. 

Also, if you’re not satisfied with the response, then you can click the Regenerate button. Or try another prompt. 

You can see all the chats in the WordPress editor. To delete a session, simply hit the Delete Session option. 

2. 1 Click SEO Meta Title and Description Generation

With Content AI, you don’t need to struggle to write an interesting and engaging SEO Meta Title and description. Also, it generates not just one but multiple variations for you to choose from.

Head to the post/page you want to add the SEO Meta Title. There, click on the Rank Math SEO button at the top and go to the Edit Snippet button. 

Once there, hit the Generate With AI button. 

Now, you’ll see the generated output. Hover over it, and you’ll have 2 options (Copy and Insert). If you hit the Insert option, then it’ll be inserted into your Snippet Editor. 

And you’re done! 

3. Content AI Metabox

You’ll find this metabox in the WordPress content editor. There are Write mode, AI Tools, RankBot, and Research options in the Content AI Metabox. 

Here, we’ll discuss the Write mode in short.

In this mode, you can provide the writing instructions, set the tone, focus keywords, and hit the Generate button. After that, the Content AI will generate the content. 

Once the content is generated, you’ll have 3 options (Use, Generate, Write More). You can use the generated content. If not satisfied, then regenerate again, or you can try another prompt. 

And that’s it!

You must be cautious because 1 word output will cost you 1 credit.  

We’ll cover another option in the metabox (AI Tools) in another section. And for the Research option, you need to upgrade to its premium version.

4. Write Your Content Using Content AI (Content Editor)

Now that you know about the Write mode, let’s look closely at it. 

As you already know, you can feed instructions and let Content AI generate the perfect article for your readers. Let’s look at the options available in Content AI one-by-one.

• Instructions: Summarize what you want Content AI to write for you. Make sure you write in no more than 600 characters.
• Tone: Choose the tone in which Content AI should generate the content. By default, it’s set to the default content you’ve selected in the Content AI Global settings. 
• Focus Keyword: Here, you need to enter the main focus keyword you want to target for your content.
• Length: Select whether Content AI should generate short, medium, or long-form content. (Short: 1-2 sentences, Medium: 3-4 sentences, and Long: 5 sentences.)
• Generate: Once you’ve filled the fields, click the Generate button and see the AI write the content for you.

To generate more effective content, you can use the writing AI tools to make the AI writing more seamless. 

For instance, you can choose tools like Blog Post Idea, Blog Post Introduction, Blog Post Conclusion, Post Title, Paragraph Writer, etc. 

To use them, simply go to the AI Tools tab from your WordPress content editor and look for the tool, for example, Blog Post Introduction, then click on it 

It’ll open a dialogue box, where you’ll need to add your post title, choose your audience, add a focus keyword, select your tone, choose the output language, choose how many outputs you want, and hit the Generate button.

Once generated, either you can copy the content or insert it directly into your post. 

Likewise, you can choose the AI tools you want to use and generate effective content for your website that aligns with your target audience.

5. Generate Image Alt Text with Content AI

If your content requires adding many images, then writing alt text on your own can be tiring. So, better utilize the Content AI image alt text generator. 

To do so, upload images to your media library on your WordPress dashboard. Then click the image to which you want to add alt text and hit the Generate Alt button. 

There you have it, and now you can add the image to your content. 

6. Content AI Score

Although it’s available in the pro version, we’ll cover it here quickly so you can understand Content AI Score. 

You can access the Content AI from the post/page editor for your Dashboard. After that, click on the Research option in the Content AI metabox. 

There, add your desired keyword and hit the Research button. 

Content AI will analyze and provide suggestions for the researched keyword, such as how many words, links, headings, and media you should use in your content based on what is currently ranking for that keyword. 

Additionally, it compares with your content and gives an overall score on a scale of 100. This will include Word Count, Link Count, Heading Count, and Media Count. 

For more detailed information, you can check the official documentation.

Other options are the same as those for other AI tools, such as audience, tone, output language, and the number of outputs you want to generate.
