How I Combine Agentic Workflow to Create SEO-Optimized Blogs

Agentic workflow divides complex tasks into multiple steps, completed collaboratively by different AI agents. This method is particularly effective in SEO-optimized blog creation.
Blogcard cleverly utilizes the agentic workflow concept. Its core process includes:

User inputs a URL
1、System retrieves third-party keyword data
2、AI filters and generates corresponding blog topics
3、Content is generated based on provided topics

Blogcard divides its workflow into two main agents through prompt design: an SEO expert agent and a blog writing agent. The SEO agent analyzes keyword data, returning suitable word combinations and blog topics. The writing agent then generates complete blog content based on the provided information.
This method's advantage lies in fully unleashing the potential of large language models. As Andrew Ng's research shows, using agentic workflow can significantly improve AI performance. In a coding benchmark test, this method even enabled GPT-3.5 to outperform GPT-4 using traditional methods.
For SEO content creation, applying agentic workflow is particularly valuable. It ensures content quality and relevance while comprehensively covering keywords, improving SEO-friendliness.

While this is an impressive workflow and can certainly yield great results in the short-term, everyone should be aware that this approach is not sustainable.

There are two issues.

  1. It is a race to the bottom. Everyone has access to the same LLMs and can come up with the same prompts. So whoever produces this content the cheapest/fastest - or has the strongest brand - will win.
  2. Neither LLMs nor search engines need it. If an LLM can create a blog article, Google and OpenAI can just create it themselves the moment a user is asking for it. They neither need it for training foundational models nor as RAG sources. So long-term, they will try to not rank/index/crawl such content.

My advice is to make sure you are ROI positive within 6 months. Otherwise this approach carries a lot of risk. In the end, this is the abuse of a temporary loophole. The loophole will disappear at some point.
