I Built a 24/7 Content Machine

Automated Blog Writing with Image Generation for websites

Imagine waking up every morning to a fresh, high-quality blog post live on your website—written, illustrated, and formatted perfectly—without you lifting a finger.

Content is the #1 driver of organic traffic, but it’s also the #1 bottleneck for founders. Writing is slow, hiring is expensive, and generic AI tools sound... robotic.

I fixed that. I built a fully automated "Content Engine" that doesn't just write; it researches, strategizes, and publishes like a human editor.

My client (an AI Consultancy) had a massive problem: They were experts in their field, but their blog was a ghost town.

The Time Trap: They didn't have 4 hours a day to research and write.

The Quality Gap: Copy-pasting from ChatGPT gave them generic, boring text that didn't mention their actual services.

The Tech Headache: Even if they had the text, formatting HTML and finding images took another hour.

They needed a system that could run on autopilot but sound like them.

I didn't just build a chatbot; I engineered a linear automation pipeline in n8n that mimics a full marketing team.

Here is the flow I designed:

1. The Researcher (The Eyes) 🕵️‍♂️ The workflow wakes up on a schedule and uses Tavily to scour the live web for breaking news in the client's niche (e.g., "Hyperautomation trends"). It doesn't guess; it reads real news.

2. The Contextualizer (The Brain) 🧠 This is the secret sauce. The system scrapes the client's own website (Services & About pages) in real-time. It feeds this context to GPT-4o with a strict instruction: "Write about this news, but explain how OUR services solve these problems." Result: No generic fluff. Every post sells the client's business.

3. The Artist (The Visuals) 🎨 A blog needs to pop. The workflow autonomously generates a custom, futuristic featured image using DALL-E 3, downloads the binary file, and uploads it to the WordPress Media Library.

4. The Publisher (The Hands) ✍️ Finally, the system converts the text from Markdown to clean HTML (bolding headers, fixing lists) and publishes it directly to WordPress via API.

n8n: The orchestration engine (Low-code).

OpenAI (GPT-4o & DALL-E 3): The creative intelligence.

Tavily API: Real-time web research.

WordPress REST API: The destination.

⚡ Speed: From "Blank Page" to "Published Post" in under 60 seconds.

📈 Consistency: The client went from posting once a month to daily.

💰 ROI: The system costs pennies to run compared to hiring a writer.

✨ Quality: The content is perfectly formatted, image-rich, and links directly to the client's sales pages.

I don't just connect APIs; I build business engines. I understand that automation isn't about replacing humans—it's about removing the boring stuff so you can focus on strategy.
