New: Yoast AI Content Planner turns a blank post into a structured draft

If you’ve ever opened a new post and immediately closed it again because you had no idea what to write, this one’s for you. 

Yoast AI Content Planner is now available for Yoast SEO Premium users. Open a new post in your WordPress editor and you’ll find five relevant post ideas waiting for you, built from your existing site content. Pick one and Yoast builds out a structured draft, ready to write into. 

What does it do? 

Yoast AI Content Planner scans your existing site content, spots the gaps that matter, and gives you five relevant post ideas, right inside the WordPress editor. Pick the one that feels right and Yoast turns it into a structured starter draft, complete with a title, an outline, a focus keyphrase, a meta description, and content notes for each section. 

You go from blank page to ready-to-write in minutes. 

What do you get? 

Here’s what Yoast builds for you once you choose an idea: 

• Site-specific post ideas. The suggestions come from your existing content and site structure, so they’re relevant to what you’ve already built, not generic topics that could apply to anyone.
• A structured starter draft. Your chosen idea becomes a full draft framework: title, H2 outline, focus keyphrase, meta description, and content notes for each section. The structure is already there. You just fill it in.
• A focus keyphrase suggestion. Yoast suggests a keyphrase for you, giving your post a strong SEO foundation from the very first step, without requiring you to research one yourself. A focus keyphrase is simply the main word or phrase you want your post to be found for in search. 
• Idea regeneration. If the first set of five ideas doesn’t feel right, you can generate a fresh set with one additional spark per session. 

A couple of things worth knowing 

Yoast AI Content Planner lives inside the WordPress post editor. You access it from any new empty post. There’s nothing new to install, no separate login, and no additional setup required. 

For the feature to work well, your site needs to have enough published content for Yoast to build a meaningful picture of what you already cover. If there isn’t quite enough yet, you’ll see a low-confidence warning rather than suggestions. 

How to get it 

Yoast AI Content Planner is available now for Yoast SEO Premium users. Open a new post in your WordPress editor to get started.
