Finally, a video that walks through everything you're supposed to do! I have been interested in Surfer for a long time, and even am on SEO Facebook forums, but nowhere and nobody has simply walked through what the thing does except you!
Awesome as ever. I always love your demos because they are so in-depth. Your explanations are golden. Question: Is it necessary to put the "please use the english language" at the end of every prompt? I haven't seen that used anywhere else.
That's great to hear I'm so glad you find them helpful! No, it is not necessary. I was experimenting with the AIPRM plugin at the time and it was adding that there automatically for some reason.
Thanks for this, I am always listening with a headset connected and once you go into showing the process I only hear your voive in one of my buds. Don't know if I am the only one but.... thanks!
Damn! You only needed 2 or 3 images. I was doing an app review; I needed 19! 😆. It was just a review, not a how to guide. That's crazy. I think the AI is cracked😄
Surfer provides some great guidelines but you don't have to follow all it's suggestions to the letter. (Same with the Yoast plugin) I usually try to reach Surfer's suggested word count but if I'm a little bit under I don't sweat it as long as the overall content score is in the green. Same thing if the article is longer than suggested.
Hi Corrie, The videos are amazing. I signed up for the email but was sent product review blog post. Can you send the prompt stack for regular blogpost?
Hey there, I updated the form a while back and forgot to update the description box. It's actually a how-to post tutorial - here's the link where you can sign up for it: fragrant-sunset-445.ck.page/4cc0e1eacc
Sorry about that I updated my main opt-in a while back and didn't update the description box. you can get it here: fragrant-sunset-445.ck.page/4cc0e1eacc
Great video, Corrie. I love the workflow. Sadly the prompts you used aren't in the description. I'd like to keep a copy with the link to this video. Can you add?
I have a question about internal and external links. I have read a lot about them, but some say to use internal on my keyword and others say use external. Well my question is should I be using internal links or external link on the keyword in my blog article?
For internal links, or text that's linking to other pages on your site, I typically choose anchor text that is close to or related to the keyword phrase of the page it is *linking to*. For external links, I know some SEOs like to use the keyword phrase as the anchor text, but I've never practiced this myself. For me, it's always made more sense to link the text that is most relevant to the page it's linking to. Since you should never be externally linking to competing pages, the anchor text wouldn't be the same as the keyword.... I hope that helps.
They're pretty different: Surfer SEO is more for on-page optimization while Ahrefs is an advanced keyword research tool. Surfer does have some keyword research functions but they are very limited by comparison. In other words, Ahrefs is better at finding keywords to target and Surfer is better for utilizing those keywords (and their related terms) in your content. I hope that helps!
My hunch is that content with a clear human touch that demonstrates EEAT (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness) will be what stands out in a sea of generic AI content. AI is to be used as an assistive tool, not to replace human content altogether - because people still need YOUR experience and expertise! The key will be learning how to incorporate AI tools while maintaining your authentic and unique voice.
Good video .. how i see u need to pay for those tools to get the jobb done .. Do you think its late now to start blogging ( very new person ) bcz it takes a long time to get ranked in Google ( old gurus take the 1st places ) ?
Every new generation of bloggers is worried they are "too late." When I started my blog in 2018, I was worried then I was too late. But it's never too late to start, you just need to make sure you are following up-to-date strategies and not those from old-school peeps who launched their blog in 2007 lol. 😊
I have concerns about AI because I can’t realistically see how they can be used for listicle type articles or even product reviews? My website is about musical gear and I’m often doing product comparisons where I’m comparing say 8 products against each other. I have a pretty thorough general understanding of my niche but I’m also researching quite extensively to really dig deep into what makes one product better (or worse) than another. I find AI can’t do this as good as I can. The problem is, doing it manually takes ages and I really do need to incorporate AI somehow. AI works best for information posts like you have done - but soon, once it’s fully integrated into browsers, then info posts will suffer because questions will be answered directly in the browser. And there will be loads more generic blogs littering the internet because most will be AI generated. I’d be interested to learn how you think AI can help produce listicle style posts? In a kind of bizarre twist of fate, I believe that human generated blog posts will only increase in value because they’ll differentiate themselves from (a) run of the mill AI generated posts in the SERPS and (b) questions that browser chat boxes won’t be able to answer.
You bring up an excellent point, and I agree that the human touch is what's going to separate top-ranking content from everything else. When you say listicles, I assume you mean product review roundups? (eg. "10 best xyz for 123") Such reviews have been notoriously tricky to execute with AI in the past, but it's entirely possible to leverage GPT-4 to write such content. It does take more work in terms of prompting/seeding the AI up front. But I have been doing some early testing on GPT-4 with review content, and I am really excited about what it can do. Done right, you can use AI to write an in-depth review while maintaining authenticity and your actual opinions/experience with the things you're reviewing. I'm still working on fine-turning the prompts, but I'm hoping to get a video up about this in the next couple of weeks.
Hi Kenneth! Hmmm, that isn't normal - all your previous chat threads should be stored on the left side bar. The only thing I can think of is that the sidebar could be minimized - try looking for the "show sidebar" icon on the top left corner.
Right now, ChatGPT Pro is definitely producing superior content with GPT-4. (Although right now, you get a limited number of outputs). However, Jasper will be implementing GPT-4 soon. (CEO confirmed they are working on it). After that, we'll see. Both tools use the same technology, but Jasper customizes the software to be used specifically for marketing purposes. They're also wizards at creating templates that lessen the need for elaborate prompt engineering. For those reasons, I have preferred it to ChatGPT in the past - but it's hard to say how things will play out now that GPT-4 is here.
Great video, but i have question you get the Ai score of 98 but in video you dont change any thing specifically. how you get that score ? or you did it manually? ill be thankful on your response.
Hi there - at the time I made this video, Originality had not upgraded their software to spot GPT-4 content (at least, this appears to be the case based on what I had seen) Shortly after, they started catching AI content more effectively. This same article does get flagged as mostly AI. That said, I do edit my content for any robotic-sounding or redundant content, and for flow. Truthfully, I am not that concerned about whether the content passes AI detection or not because Google says AI content is not against the guidelines as long as it is used appropriately. (i.e. genuinely serving the reader and not engineered solely for ranking). I hope that helps!
Koala definitely looks interesting, but I need to investigate it further. We're going to be seeing all kinds of new AI tools coming onto the market this year! (And sorry about the mic issue, I think it might have been because I had the mic off to the left when I was doing the screenshare portion but I did notice the sound was off during editing. Still working on them editing skills lol. 😅)
@@CorrieWhoWritesMic placement won’t cause the audio to be in one channel only. It’s because you have recorded in mono, when you actually need stereo. So your audio has defaulted to the left channel only. I can’t tell you how to get your audio in stereo, it depends on what video/audio platform(s) you are using.
Cracy 2023 - AI controlled Google optimized content that has the aim to just rank :-) I´m curious about the future if that way of creating content that does replicate itself in other combinations will guide users to understand that the value of google or these types of contents does not encorporate any soul or purpose. But indeed from technical standpoint a good idea.
@@CorrieWhoWrites but I saw $20 for gpt plus which is 3.5. I want to use 4, but I am confused with calculation with number of prompt and so on. Thank you, for such quick response. I like your videos.
ChatGPT Pro has 3.5 and 4 available, you can select which language model you want to use. Just keep in mind that right now they have a cap on how many messages you can generate at a time. I'm so glad you enjoy my videos and that you find them helpful. :)
As with everything in SEO, it's more nuanced than that. It's not about if an AI wrote it or not - it's about how valuable, credible, and unique the content is compared to the pages it's competing with.
The magic of GPT-4! Also, Originality.ai is not always accurate, in general - I've had 100% human content get greater AI scores than fully AI pieces before. So it's okay to use as a guide, but can't be counted on for irrefutable results.
You do realize that if everyone is using AI for their posts, that you're ranking is competing against the same technology, right? So there is no winning if everyone else is doing it, too. Your only real advantage is against real humans that do genuine work. This is an unending game as AI will eventually rule everyone's life to the point that reality won't be real anymore.
