SEO tip: Here are four ways to use AI to speed up your SEO strategy sessions:
#1. Use AI to get keyword suggestions
AI makes it easy to streamline your keyword research process, taking what usually takes a few hours to complete down to minutes.
Here’s how:
In Ahrefs, go to the Keyword Explorer tab. Here you can brainstorm keyword ideas from 20+ available presets.
Just select a preset, type in a keyword, and click on Ask AI to do the heavy-lifting for you.
#2. Use AI to research search intent
Understanding search intent is essential to rank well. This is something that AI can do well – you can automatically analyze the search intent for any keyword’s top 10 search results.
In Ahrefs, click on the Identify intents button and Ahrefs AI will:
-
Identify what people are actually searching for
-
Show the % of traffic share going to each search intent
This means you can target MULTIPLE angles with ONE comprehensive article.
#3. Use AI to grade your content
(This feature is in beta and only available to Ahrefs Enterprise customers right now)
This AI feature lets you automatically analyze the top ranking pages for an existing article and keyword.
Type in a URL + keyword, then Content Grader will:
-
Extract subtopics and do a side-by-side comparison of how each subtopic is covered by the Top 3 ranking pages, plus…
-
Provide concrete examples of how you should improve your content
#4. Use AI to automatically translate your saved keywords into 40+ languages
If you’ve ever gone through the process of translating your content, you know it takes ages. You have to:
-
Compile a keyword list with SEO metrics
-
Hire experienced translators
-
Translate keywords and make sure their localized nuances are preserved
-
Create a content plan based on the translated keywords
Now Ahrefs has a new AI translations feature that makes it easy to translate keywords with just a click of a button.
You get a list of alternate keywords, so you pick the ones which are most relevant and have the most search volumes (see the example here: “popcorn” in various Spanish-speaking countries).
Those are four easy ways to use AI to help with your SEO strategy + content production!
