Google rewards fresh, valuable content. Regular blogging improves rankings, brings more clicks, and converts visitors into customers. BlogCog ensures your site stays optimized with consistent, quality content.

The BlogCog Leaderboard is a gamified feature built directly into the BlogCog user interface to inspire team collaboration and maintain a healthy blog queue. It tracks contributions from team members, updates key metrics in real‑time, and fosters friendly competition to keep your blogging strategy on track.

Here’s what you can track using the Leaderboard:

• Total Blogs in Queue: See the total of all your contributors. Team members are motivated to maintain a high total, ensuring a steady stream of content.
• Top Contributors: See which team members are leading in blog submissions and keep the competition alive.
• Blogs Posting Per Day: Track how many blogs are currently being posted daily.
• Days of Blogs Left in Queue: Know exactly how many days your queue will last at the current posting rate.

Why It Matters: By combining gamification with actionable stats, the Leaderboard transforms content creation into a team‑driven effort/competition while giving managers real‑time oversight of progress and goals.

BlogCog offers flexible scheduling options tailored to your needs for every blog post:

• Future - Random Queue: The default setting! Your post is added to a queue and will be randomly published, keeping your blog content varied and exciting. 99.9% of BlogCog blogs are scheduled this way.
• ASAP: Need the post live now? Select this option to push your blog to the front of the queue.
• Specific Date: Ideal for time‑sensitive posts like product launches, promotions, or holidays. Simply choose the exact date and time you want your post to go live.
• Draft: Want to review your content first? Opt for the draft mode, where the post remains unpublished on your site for you to review and tweak before going live. This is perfect for complex topics or new users who want to ensure everything is spot‑on.

Why does scheduling matter?

Scheduling helps you maintain a consistent posting schedule, optimize content visibility for your audience, and plan posts for special events or promotions without the need for manual effort.

Your blogs remain on your site, continuing to drive traffic. Ownership of all generated content stays with you, ensuring long‑term value.

Each subscription includes AI‑driven blogs tailored to your input, complete with SEO strategies, internal links, and customizable publishing schedules. Plans range from 1 to 10 blogs per day. Not sure how many you’ll need? No worries—start with a few a day and ramp up your subscription from there. No need to overcommit—BlogCog scales with your needs!

Onboarding includes account setup, API integration, and customized blogging schedules. Add‑ons like rapid indexing and geo‑tagged images are also available for enhanced results.

We also provide access to a robust database of suggested topics tailored for your industry. This database typically includes 2,000 to 5,000 topics containing long‑tail keywords and is built using:

• Industry‑Specific Long‑Tail Keywords: Topics designed to capture niche traffic and improve SEO rankings.
• Competitor Keyword Research: We identify and target keywords your competitors are ranking for, helping you take their traffic.
• Google PAA (People Also Ask) Questions: We gather frequently asked questions from Google related to your niche, providing valuable content ideas that answer your audience's queries.

Our suggested topics are designed to help you dominate your industry’s SEO landscape while creating valuable, engaging content that resonates with your target audience.

The Auto‑Pilot Blog Creator automatically selects products from your listings and generates blogs to keep your publishing schedule full. It’s ideal for businesses with extensive product catalogs. If you don’t have products, see the next question about Auto‑Pilot Content.

Auto‑Pilot Content is our hands‑free blogging service for non‑product websites and service businesses. BlogCog automatically selects high‑value topics from our curated database, generates a matching header image, writes an SEO‑optimized article and schedules it for publication. You don’t need to supply topics, images or products—just set your preferred publishing frequency and let BlogCog handle the rest.

The same curated pool of topics that powers the “Show Suggested Topics” button also drives Auto‑Pilot services. For Auto‑Pilot Blog Creator, we match topics with products in your catalog. For Auto‑Pilot Content, we select relevant topics from the pool based on your industry and goals. You can still submit your own ideas, and they’ll be incorporated automatically.

Geo‑Tagged Images embed precise geographic data into visuals to boost local SEO. This add‑on is perfect for businesses with physical locations or localized services. NOTE: Geo‑Tagging does not work for Shopify, as they strip EXIF data from images. Auto‑Pilot Content already generates images automatically; Geo‑Tagged Images are intended for local SEO use with WordPress/WooCommerce.

BlogCog integrates seamlessly with Shopify and WordPress/WooCommerce. We’re actively working on expanding support to other platforms with blog‑publishing APIs. If your platform isn’t listed, contact us to discuss your needs—we may already have something in the works!
