I automated my blog writing—here's the workflow
This week's free N8N workflow is ready to download.


Hey there — happy Wednesday! 👋
I wanted to automate my blog post writing and build a workflow to do this for me on autopilot.
Not just any blog posts—posts optimized for AI search. The kind that actually show up when people ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for recommendations.
So I built it.
👉 This week's workflow: AEO Blog Post Creator
Here’s how it works:
Here's what it does:
You drop in a topic
It researches what AI search engines want to see
AI writes a blog post structured for Answer Engine Optimization
You get a draft ready to publish
One blog post topic in, one optimized blog post out.
