This is absolutely brilliant. I have used both Jasper, Kadence and your templates for a while now (haven't bought the pro version yet, but I will), but I've never even thought about making the posts directly in WordPress. I've always been a "get everything into my Google Doc first" kinda person. But why do things twice, right? I'm definitely going to try this out. Great video. :)
Hey Mai-Britt! First of all, thanks so much for the support on the blocks. I really appreciate it :) Isn't this awesome?! It's so nice to be able to do everything directly in the WP editor. I'm the kind of person that doesn't like using different editors and constantly swapping tabs. I'm a lot more productive using one editor and getting it all done through there. Now, you can do that all with the WordPress editor, Start Blogging Blocks, and the Jasper AI Chrome Extension!
Thank you so much for the wonderful comment, Kathy! I'm always trying to come up with new, innovative ways to make it easier for people to build websites with WordPress. More to come!
Epic video! I love Jasper. I can't wait until they update their functionality to include the customization of Boss Mode's documents on my site so it can pull more info. Hopefully this gets their attention to stop playing with their chat and to focus on the chrome extension!
Glad you liked it! Oh yeah, I definitely agree. As I mentioned, I know this is only the first iteration of the Chrome extension, and yet it's already super powerful. But, if they add even more of the functionality and being able to pull in more info, it would be even more epic!!
Jake I love this. I spend sooooo much time copying and pasting from Jasper/Surfer to WordPress. Such a drain. I guess the next great evolution would be for those of us who use Jasper + Surfer + Starting Blocks. How would we get the final content into Surfer so we can take advantage of Grow Flow and the content planning 🤔
Hey Maurice! Appreciate the comment my man! Right?! The copying/pasting doesn't seem like a huge deal until you're switching between tabs constantly, not getting the right formatting, etc. Such a pain. So, being able to generate content directly in the WordPress editor like this is a game-changer. I feel you on the Surfer SEO piece. I have no idea if this is possible or if they're working on it, but I've always thought it would be epic if Surfer SEO had a WordPress plugin where it could give you suggestions and many of their features directly in WordPress.
Hi Jake 👋🏻 I’m very excited about using the Start Blogging Blocks templates! I currently run Mediavine ads on my information posts both inline (throughout the body of the blog posts content) as well as in the sidebars. Do your full post templates allow for a sidebar option or/and allow for space to be created in the templates for ads to be injected into them ? Thanks!
Hi there! Glad to hear you're excited about the templates :) I love Mediavine and have a site that is running their ads. Yes, you can use a sidebar (or not use one) with any of these blog post outline templates. The templates are built for the main content area of the blog post. What you decide to do with a sidebar (have one or not) is totally up to you. We also have some templates that are designed specifically for your sidebar if you wish. Also, for Mediavine... it should handle automatically placing ads in your sidebar so there doesn't need to be any "space" allocated. It will figure out the best place to put them and automatically insert them in there.
Great video! But what about AI detection? I am so worried that I will get everything up and Google won't index my articles because of the AI content? Please help me get over these thoughts so I can finally get started!
Google has specifically stated that they are fine with AI-generated content, as long as it's helpful and fulfills the user's search intent. Google is always looking to point people to original, high-quality content that demonstrates E-E-A-T (Expertise, Experience, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness). You can read more about it directly from Google here: developers.google.com/search/blog/2023/02/google-search-and-ai-content Hope that helps :)
There are a number of AI tools that I use and work with. As far as AI tools that work directly with the WordPress editor, there aren't many right now. The next one I'm looking forward to using with the WP editor to run AI prompts with Start Blogging Blocks templates is SureWriter.
Hi Susana. If you're using the Kadence Theme with Start Blogging Blocks, it will automatically bring in your site's colors. So, the buttons you see will automatically be set to your main brand color. Otherwise, it's extremely easy to switch the button color in the block settings.
