  • How to Upscale Images in WordPress

    When building websites in WordPress, high-quality images are crucial to the design. With high-resolution displays being the new norm, your images must have the right size and resolution for all devices. But what happens when you are stuck using an image that’s not big enough or looks blurry? You can try to find a new image or simply use an image upscaler. With the power of AI, a good image upscaler can magically transform your small, pixelated images into high-resolution masterpieces in a few clicks. In this guide, we’ll learn more about image upscaling, upscale some images on WordPress, and explore a variety of image upscalers you can use in future projects.

    What is Image Upscaling?

    Image upscaling is the process of increasing a digital image’s size, resolution, or dimensions without losing image quality. This can be done using AI technology that uses deep learning, neural networks, and AI algorithms to enhance the image with the additional pixels it needs. It is a powerful solution for web designers looking to enlarge and enhance images while maintaining a quality that will not degrade the initial provided image.

    An example of the upscaling

    Popular image upscalers like Topaz Photo AI can do this outside of WordPress. In the above image, we can see that the quality of the initial image is subpar. There’s some pixelation; the image appears blurry and can’t be used at a higher resolution. However, the second image is much clearer: we can see the details within the features, the image colors are brighter, and the final product can be used in a larger and smaller form. This is an excellent example of the benefits of upscaling images.

    Why You Need to Upscale Images in WordPress

    In WordPress, once your image is uploaded, the original (or intrinsic) size and dimensions of the image are set. Sure, you can make the image smaller if you want. In fact, WordPress will create smaller versions for you to help render the right size on your website. But making them larger is a different story. If you want to make it larger, you can’t just increase an image’s dimensions in the Media Library or manually give it a larger width and height on your page. This will stretch the images and their pixels beyond their intrinsic value and render them with less quality and blur.

    To make an image larger in WordPress, you need an image upscaler. Upscaling uses AI to ensure that the enlarged image maintains quality while increasing its size and dimensions. While the image’s dimensions are increased, the quality of the image is maintained and often enhanced with a result that often looks even better than the original. When working in WordPress, having this handy tool available saves you from having to search for better high-quality images or use other third-party tools for upscaling.

    Benefits of Upscaling Images for WordPress

    Many benefits come with upscaling images for your WordPress website:

    1. Improve Your Website’s Visuals: Upscaling your images in or for WordPress provides a better web experience for your viewers. Good visuals make a great website. Using crystal clear images on your website is an easy process when using an image upscaler to adjust photos on your website.
    2. Zooming and Panning in eCommerce: eCommerce plugins like WooCommerce have many features, including zooming and panning product photos. However, if you have poor-quality photos, this doesn’t look good for your brand. Being able to upscale images in WordPress affords you the ability to bring this feature to your WordPress site with high-quality images.
    3. Convenience When Searching and Using Images: With upscaling, you can save time when trying to find high-resolution versions of images in your arsenal. Using image upscalers, you can upscale the image you have on hand instead of searching far and wide for the high DPI version of an image.
    4. SEO and User Engagement: Most of the time, large images are a big problem for website performance and page load speed, which isn’t good for SEO. But, as long as your images are optimized, high-quality photos can lead to higher rankings on search engines. Therefore, consider using an AI image upscaler to process images for your WordPress website. Plus, there are more ways AI can help WordPress SEO.
    5. Future-Proofing Your Website: Screen sizes and resolutions have increased over the years. From retina to high DPI screens, ensuring your website will look as good today and in future years is imperative. You can remedy this by using image upscaler tools to keep your images looking fresh, regardless of the year people access your website.

    Now that we understand how upscaling our images can benefit our WordPress website, let’s explore how we can implement this practically with Divi and Divi AI.

    How to Upscale Images in WordPress with Divi AI

    Divi, our powerful AI WordPress theme and page builder, ships with a powerful AI assistant for your website called Divi AI. It incorporates various AI features into your WordPress website, including image upscaling. Let’s explore how we can utilize these WordPress tools to enhance the dimensions of our images without compromising their quality.

    1. Download and Install Divi and Divi AI

    If you’re new to Divi, your journey starts by getting a membership and downloading Divi from your member profile. Then, you can follow this excellent guide showing you how to install Divi. It covers many topics that will help you install Divi on your WordPress website, including downloading the theme’s ZIP file, installing it in WordPress, and authenticating your website with Elegant Themes.

    Divi AI is a powerful AI tool that works hand in hand with Divi and the Divi Builder plugin. You’ll have access to Divi AI out of the box with a free trial, and you can upgrade to an unlimited version at any time. This will give you full access to Divi’s AI image generator (and upscaler) as well as Divi AI’s writing assistant for generating content with AI.

    Divi AI

    Once Divi is installed and activated, and you have procured your Divi AI license, we can start upscaling some images! If you’re already a member of the Divi family, great! We’re happy to have you!

    2. Open the Divi Builder and Select Your Image

    Whether working on an existing page or creating a page from scratch, the upscaling process with Divi AI is the same. You will edit your image, use the Divi AI upscale command, and then Divi AI will automatically re-insert your image in the same place. Let’s go over how to do that now with a brand-new page in WordPress. From the WordPress dashboard, hover over the Pages menu link. Then, click Add New. This will create a new page for us.

    Add new page to AI powered WordPress website

    Name your page, then click the purple Use Divi Builder button.

    Setting up a new page to upscale images with Divi AI

    From the three options presented, choose the first choice. Click the blue button that says Start Building, and now, you have a blank slate for upscaling your images.

    Start building a brand new page in Divi

    Divi will automatically create a new section for you in the builder. However, you’ll need to add a new row. Click the two-column row layout from the row modal box to do this.

    Add new row with two columns

    Next, enter the word “image” into the search box for the Module modal box. Click on the Image Module to add it to the first column in your newly added row.

    Add new Image Module

    With our Image Module in place, let’s upload an image from our hard drive to WordPress and upscale it. Inside the Image Module, click the gear icon. This is where the Media Library will open up. You can select an existing photo from your library or upload a new one. We’re going to select an image that’s already in our Media Library.

    Select image from Media Library

    Once you’ve selected your image, please take note of its dimensions and file size. We’ll use this information later to compare the effects of upscaling images in WordPress with Divi AI. Finally, click the Upload an Image button to add your image to your page. Now, we can run the image upscaler present in Divi AI.

    3. Upscale Your Images in WordPress with Divi AI

    Once our image has been selected in the Divi Image Module, we can activate Divi AI. Click on the Divi AI icon next to the image’s settings icon.

    Activate Divi AI

    Then select the Upscale feature. Finally, choose between the 2x and 4x options for your upscaling.

    Upscale image with Divi AI

    The beauty of using Divi AI for your WordPress upscaling needs is that you never have to leave the WordPress dashboard. There’s no need to open a program on your desktop or visit an external website to upscale your image. You can upscale your image within the Divi Builder without requiring additional tools or downloads.

    Inserted Divi AI upscaled image

    After a short wait, you’ll notice that your page looks the same. But is it? Let’s take a deeper look.

    4. Comparing Our Original and Upscaled Images

    Click the gear icon to access the Media Library and see what Divi AI has done under the hood.

    Edit image after upscaling

    The first thing we notice is that our original image has been duplicated. Divi AI is smart enough to back up our image before performing upscaling tasks. Next, when we click on our new upscaled image, we notice that its dimensions have changed. It’s now almost double in size, which aligns with the 2x upscaling option we selected in Divi AI. However, its file size is still manageable and light.

    Comparing our upscaled and original image

    Furthermore, if you compare both images, you can see a noticeable difference in the quality of our upscaled image.

    Comparing upscaled and original image

    Our upscaled image is sharper, and the colors in our new photo are more vibrant. Not only does the Divi AI increase the dimensions while maintaining the quality of our upscaled images, but it also refines them. Let’s look at the new statistics of our images from the Media Gallery.

    Our original image was 510px by 335px. It was also 178kb. While still a light image, our upscaling can help us be more optimized. Divi AI was able to not only almost double the size of our image but it was also able to compress the image without decreasing the quality of the image.

    Comparing Image statistics of upscaled and originally upscaled images

    Additionally, when you look at the image in the Divi Builder, even though the size of the image has changed, its quality has increased alongside the change in dimensions:

    Comparing upscaled and original images in Divi with Divi AI

    Image 1 is our new and improved image, and image 2 is our original image. Both of these images are within a one-column row layout in Divi. We can see that image 1 is larger. However, when you look closer, you can see that the image is sharper, the colors are more precise (notice the hair and nails), and the skin on the model has improved. Even though the original image is smaller, it is still not as straightforward as our upscaled image.

    This gives us better images overall for our web pages without leaving the WordPress backend or using external tools. It’s clear that when you choose to use Divi AI as your WordPress image upscaler, you will get fast, easy, and excellent results for the photos and images on your website.

    Other Image Upscaling Tools for Your WordPress Website

    While Divi AI is an excellent tool for upscaling images in WordPress, you may want additional upscaling capabilities that Divi AI may not have… for now. With this in mind, here are other image upscaling tools that you can use outside of WordPress for your website:

    1. Gigapixel AI by Topaz Labs: A light and easy-to-use online platform, this image upscaler supports multiple image formats, enhances image quality, and can process your images in seconds.
    2. Upscale.media: A light and easy-to-use online platform, this image upscaler supports multiple image formats, enhances image quality, and can process your images in seconds.
    3. Icons8 Smart Upscaler: Another online platform, this upscaler has a simple interface that can upscale images up to 7680px. It also comes with an API, and its desktop application for Mac can also remove backgrounds.
    4. Zyro AI Image Upscaler: If you’re a fan of the Adobe Creative Suite, Adobe Firefly is right up your alley. Seen powering industry-standard tools like Lightroom and Photoshop, refine color, show off deep details, and more with this creative, generative AI engine.
    5. Adobe Firefly: If you’re a fan of the Adobe Creative Suite, Adobe Firefly is right up your alley. Seen powering industry-standard tools like Lightroom and Photoshop, refine color, show off deep details, and more with this creative, generative AI engine.

    These external image upscalers require you to perform upscaling tasks outside of WordPress and then import your images into the Media Library. However, using a tool like Divi AI is more convenient and saves you valuable time. As such, its a great toool for an efficient web designer.

    Conclusion

    Image upscaling is a necessary part of preparing your images for the web. Instead of using tools outside your WordPress installation, you can now find image upscaling capabilities through Divi and Divi AI. Performing image upscaling directly within the Divi Builder helps you refine your process and stay on track when building your websites.

    However, suppose you’re looking for a desktop application or an API to give you more image upscaling power. In that case, other AI upscale tools are available that you can use in conjunction with WordPress. Have you tried to upscale your images in WordPress? What tool did you use? Have you tested Divi AI’s upscaling feature yet? Let us know in the comments; we’d love to hear from you!

  • How to Use AI to Improve WordPress SEO

    Want to take your WordPress SEO to the next level? With the help of AI technologies, you can easily elevate your WordPress SEO game. AI SEO tools like Semrush, Divi AI, and Rank Math can help you create high-quality content that search engines love. In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps you need to take to improve WordPress SEO with each of these AI tools.

    Understanding How AI Can Improve WordPress SEO

    Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in SEO is more than a passing trend. Many website owners have been experimenting with practical approaches to boost your WordPress site’s performance significantly. Here’s how:

    Understanding Search Intent

    AI algorithms like those in Semrush can analyze high-level user needs from search queries. This analysis provides insights into what your audience is looking for, allowing you to tailor your content to meet their needs and expectations. You can vaguely tell if your content should fit into one of these buckets: Informational, Commercial, Transactional, or Navigational. Search intent helps you predict what searchers are looking for with a given term so you can provide the content they need. The more you address their needs, the more they may appreciate other insights you may provide in your content.

    Enhancing Topical Authority

    You can create content demonstrating expertise and relevance in your niche by utilizing AI and Natural Language Processing (NPL) to develop rich content with related keywords and semantic topics. As search engines grow in sophistication, they’ll look for things beyond NPL and topical coverage, but these are good things to include at a base level. This approach helps search engines understand your content’s context. It also gives you something to add to your expertise while hitting the essential marks needed to rank.

    Optimizing On-Page Elements

    AI can assist in fine-tuning meta descriptions and keyword usage. By analyzing SERP data, you can gain insights into competitor strategies, allowing you to improve your click-through rates and rankings.

    Ensuring Quality with E-E-A-T Standards

    Part of the point of Google’s standard for rankable content is for site owners to lean into better content and not just more of it. Using a programmatic SEO approach with AI writers with little oversight isn’t the way to go. However, using AI correctly can make your writers even more efficient. AI can evaluate the quality and relevance of your content, ensuring alignment with the latest search engine guidelines. Factors such as expertise in the subject matter, the effort put into research, the authoritativeness of sources, the trustworthiness of information, content length, and readability are analyzed to meet high standards.

    WordPress SEO Optimization with AI Tools

    We’ll spend most of our time in this article seeing how three AI tools, in particular, can help WordPress site owners with their SEO efforts. These are Semrush, Divi AI, and Rank Math SEO.

    First, let’s see how Semrush’s various tools can help set us up for success.

    1. Outline and Keyword Research with Semrush

    Semrush is a comprehensive suite that aids SEO research, especially for WordPress sites. Its free Content Outline tool is a standout feature that helps you organize and optimize your keywords and ideas. Learn more about their AI Content Outline Builder.

    How to Use the Semrush AI Outline Builder

    Semrush’s Outline Builder is the easiest-to-use AI tool by Semrush. You can use it and share up to three outlines for free. To get started, provide a topic you want to cover. We’re building a homepage for a boat tour business in Maine. We’ve tested this tool with blog articles, homepages, and landing pages—it performs well in each case. Click “Create Outline.”

    Semrush AI Content Outline Builder - Steps 1

    The first major aspect of the outline builder is the SEO Title. You have three options:

    1. Write your own title
    2. Use AI suggestion (recommended)
    3. See competitor titles that are ranking in the SERPs (excellent for research)

    In our case, we liked the AI’s first suggestion. When you’ve found yours, click “+ Use this title.”

    Semrush AI Content Outline Builder - Steps 5-6

    Next, your options for article description mirror those for the title: write your own, draw inspiration from competitors, or adopt an AI suggestion. Feel free to start with an AI-suggested description and modify it to align with your vision.

    Semrush AI Content Outline Builder - Steps 7-8

    Next, it will give you basic keyword recommendations, but using Semrush’s Keyword Overview tool is best, which we’ll touch on in a moment.

    The last major step is actually building your page outline. This section lists AI-suggested and competitor headings/questions based on your topic. Include the ones you want by dragging them over to your outline. You can even add your own using the “+ Add subheading/heading” button on the left. This table of contents section is excellent for structuring your page, whether it’s a landing page or a blog article.

    Semrush AI Content Outline Builder - Steps 11-13

    Finally, when satisfied, click “Preview” to see the finalized outline.

    Semrush AI Content Outline Builder - Steps 14-15

    There are more options, but we’ve found that those are less helpful. If you want, you can explore AI-gathered “facts” that you can use in your articles and see what images competitors are using.

    How to Use Semrush for Basic Keyword Research

    Semrush is better known as a robust research tool to help you find content gaps and trends, explore search volumes, and track SERP rankings.

    Start your keyword research by entering the keyword you want to analyze into the search bar. Select the target region you want to focus on. Click “Search,” and Semrush will take you to the Keyword Overview page for that keyword.

    Semrush Keyword Research - Steps 1-3

    Detailed information about the selected keyword is on the Keyword Overview page. This includes an analysis of organic search volume, keyword difficulty, search trend graph, search intent, and cost-per-click. This information helps you assess the keyword’s potential for your content and advertising strategies.

    Semrush Keyword Research - Steps 4-8

    Further down the Keyword Overview page, you’ll see additional insights such as keyword variations, related questions to your keywords, and potential keyword clusters (paid). These details allow you to explore variations and related terms.

    Semrush Keyword Research - Steps 9-12

    Semrush’s paid tool gives you even more powerful tools to look up keyword information. It can also help you track published pages and how they are performing.

    2. Using Divi AI for Faster Website Creation

    Now that we have an AI-generated content outline and keywords for our page, we’ll use Divi to build it out. Fortunately, we have Divi AI, which will play a vital role in creating images and keyword-rich content.

    Make sure to set up a WordPress site and install Divi. For our example, we created a page and used the Sightseeing Tours layout pack to get us started. This will be the base we will iterate from for maximum design speed. One last step that we’ll do before using Divi AI is pasting in our headings from the Semrush Outline Builder. The outline we created with it is great, and it is easy to add section headings to our premade layout. This saves us from designing from a blank page.

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 1

    Generating Images with Divi AI

    We want to change the picture in our hero section (and other sections of the layout). To use Divi AI to generate images, open the image module, go to the background image, select the “AI” icon, and then “Generate With AI.”

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 2-6

    Fill in the Divi AI image generation parameters. Learn more about creating images with Divi AI. Here’s what we choose:

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 7-10

    Divi AI did an excellent job creating images. We could refine or generate more images like these, but we liked image #3. Click “Use This Image” to add it to the module.

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 11-12

    We went ahead and repeated the steps for all the images on the page.

    Generating SEO Content with Divi AI

    Now that we’ve created a new image for the page, we can move on to generating website copy. The layout had some placeholder text that we want to use Divi AI to replace. To do this, open the text module, click the “AI” icon, and select “Write With AI.”

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 13-15

    Much like Divi AI’s image generation, we need to tell it what content we want to create. Give a description and set other parameters to your liking. You can even prompt Divi AI to include all the keywords you need for a block of content. When ready, click “Generate Text.”

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 16-19

    Divi AI came up with some text for this text module, and it’s very close to what we need. Clicking “Use This Text” adds it to the module, where we can edit it to our liking.

    Divi AI Page Build - Steps 20

    If you want to run Divi AI again, you can either “Retry,” use a quick action (i.e., Shorten), or “Refine Result.”

    Divi AI Results

    By simply using a premade layout pack, Divi AI, and our Semrush outline, we created an entire homepage in 15 minutes. Best of all, it is ready to run through Rank Math!

    Here’s the hero section we made with the help of Divi AI’s image-generation capabilities:

    Divi AI Page Build - Result 1

    Moving down a section, this is our second heading based on the Semrush outline. Divi AI handled the image creation plus the paragraph of the sales copy.

    Divi AI Page Build - Result 2

    Doing this for each section in our content outline is a breeze. Semrush gave us the structure of our page content, and Divi AI created each piece of it. You could do the same exact steps for either a landing page or a blog article. See our detailed guide to using Divi AI for blog article writing.

    3. Improve On-Page SEO with Rank Math

    Rank Math is the go-to for setting up a site with proper SEO—page by page. Rank Math’s AI and NPL-powered content scoring can use data straight from the SERPs to analyze each page of content you create. It has a pro version that helps more with Keyword planning, but we’ll look at how the free version can help with editing content for SEO quality.

    To get started, click the Rank Math icon on the bottom center of the screen.

    Use Rank Math to Improve SEO - Steps 1

    Notice that it gives you a start score before optimizing — 21/100 is not good! Start by giving your page/post a meta description by clicking “Edit Snippet.” Then add a “Focus Keyword.”

    Use Rank Math to Improve SEO - Steps 2-4

    There are two main sections that help you know exactly what to optimize. The first is “Basic SEO,” which covers the bare minimum. A Red X icon shows you what you need to work on.

    Use Rank Math to Improve SEO - Steps 5

    For even more optimization recommendations, see the “Additional” section. This dives even deeper into your on-page SEO needs.

    Use Rank Math to Improve SEO - Steps 6

    You probably noticed these two buttons near the top. These open up Rank Math’s AI content analysis and tracking tools. They are not available for free but are worth their weight in gold if you don’t have similar tools for analyzing your content and tracking your rankings.

    Rank Math Content AI and Keyword Trends Buttons

    Here’s what Content AI suggestions look like for adding semantic keywords, questions, and additional links to your content. It shows you if your content uses suggested semantic phrases and how many times. Green is the goal!

    Semantic Keywords Suggestions

    4. Other AI Tools for WordPress SEO

    These other WordPress AI plugins and tools help with other aspects of SEO not covered above.

    ShortPixel

    Speed is an ever more important aspect of the SEO game. ShortPixel ensures your images are blazing fast for every user, every device, and every page load.

    ShortPixel AI Image Compression and CDN

    It helps reduce image sizes without losing image quality. It also boasts an AI-powered CDN that can serve images at the sizes needed for a particular screen resolution, so you are never bogging your visitors down.

    These features are great for some Divi AI-generated images, which can be large in file size if you ignore them.

    Link Whisper

    What if AI could analyze the content of all your pages and find effortless internal linking opportunities? That’s what Link Whisper is all about!

    LinkWhisper Auto linking with AI

    Link Whisper matches relevant phrases across your website with pages that cover those topics. Since it uses AI, it has an excellent understanding of your content and can suggest relevant internal links.

    Programmatic internal linking is an AI tool that we are all here for.

    Grammarly

    Did you know that correct spelling and grammar are signals for helpful content? Grammarly is the premier tool for editing grammar and fixing simple errors. It works in the browser and with your favorite writing programs. It’s saved us more than once!

    AI and proofreading with AI tools like Grammarly

    Grammarly gives real-time suggestions (in the form of helpful underlining) to help you improve your writing as it is typed. Its Premium version offers even more suggestions that will make you a better writer.

    WordLift

    The WordLift plugin can be used to apply schema markup on your WordPress pages effortlessly. With this tool configured, you won’t need to write code to add valid Schema markup to your pages/posts.

    WordLift Classic Editor AI Schema Injection

    A menu on your article’s right side in the WordPress editor (classic or block) will let you annotate specific content for adding automatic Schema entities. Since WordLift uses AI, it gives you intelligent suggestions that are easy to act on.

    Wrapping Up

    If you haven’t already started using AI to build websites faster, you are in for increased productivity. Half the battle is figuring out which tools can realistically help you get the job done. This article showed you how to improve WordPress SEO with AI tools like Semrush, Divi AI, and Rank Math.

  • How to Use AI to Optimize Your Website Copy

    Are you looking for real, proven methods for using AI for copy optimization and editing? AI has millions of applications, but the wrong advice can lead you to unhelpful content that Google might penalize you for. This article will cut through the noise and reveal our best tips and prompts to optimize your website copy. We’ll show you how to use AI tools like Divi AI and ChatGPT to make your website copy more engaging, resonant, and factually correct.

    Why Use AI in Website Copy Optimization?

    Using AI to optimize website copy is more than just the latest hype. When handled skillfully, the results are remarkable. Consequently, it’s a logical choice for website owners to harness AI’s power for more effective copywriting and to reap the ensuing benefits. Here are several compelling reasons to contemplate integrating AI into your strategy for refining website copy:

    1. Scale Your Unique Voice

    AI can generate copy in your unique voice and branding. There is no need to fear losing authenticity with AI. It’s about combining your human touch with AI to create more compelling copy. This preserves your unique voice while scaling your content creation.

    2. Save Time

    Efficiency is vital to any writing process, and AI can save you valuable time. Balancing AI’s speed with human workflows can balance quality with efficiency, making you more competitive in content creation. The more content you create, the better your site will perform in the SERPs (all other things being equal).

    3. Add SEO Value

    While AI is helping you create compelling copy for your site, it should also help with SEO. It can do this by first layering in SEO keywords throughout your copy. Secondly, it can use semantic phrases and natural language processing (NLP) to help establish topical coverage and authority. Dedicated AI SEO tools can help supplement what live data an AI writer does not natively have.

    4. Infuse Creativity

    Generative AI copy sometimes seems robotic, but co-writing with AI can supplement your ideas when they aren’t coming, giving you unexpected positive results. Having it create more content than you plan to use is a great way to add more ideas to your work. Use it to expand beyond your creativity.

    AI Tools to Optimize Copy

    There are a lot of AI tools that fill different gaps in a copy creation workflow. Depending on what you need, you will gravitate to various tools. Here are some categories of AI copy-generating and optimizing tools that could prove helpful:

    AI Copy Generators

    AI Writers were some of the first AI tools to reach mass adoption. There is a long list of such tools, many that you’d recognize: Divi AI, Jasper, Writesonic, and Rytr, to name a few. These tools are built to create new content written with marketing and sales in mind.

    AI Editors

    AI for editing can be done with the same tools that do AI writing in the first place. But many people have found that they prefer handling editing tasks in tools like ChatGPT. Since it can follow detailed instructions and pick up on patterns, it is an excellent tool for fine-tuning content you’ve written or from another AI writer.

    AI SEO Tools

    AI SEO tools fill a vital gap for internet writers. Anyone writing and wanting their content to be found is sure to include SEO in the process. Most of the time, keyword research is done before writing even begins. But as we mentioned above, optimizing content at the tail end of your writing process helps make sure your content is rich with semantic topics and other enrichments from NPL. Tools like Semrush help with planning and keyword research. Other tools like SurferSEO and Rank Math can help you optimize your content for maximum effect.

    What is Divi AI?

    Divi AI

    Divi AI is a powerful AI content generation tool for building websites in WordPress. It’s part of Divi, our WordPress theme and page builder plugin. And it is a perfect tool for optimizing website copy. It is like having the power of ChatGPT inside an easy-to-use website builder. It can write, optimize existing website content, and generate images inside Divi’s Visual Builder. Since it’s built into Divi, it understands each Divi module, making generating text and images for your Divi website a breeze.

    Not sure what to write or how to improve your copy? Divi AI can improve it automatically with just a click of a button. Check out this quick video showing you how to do it.

    Divi AI is the ideal AI companion for website creators and designers. It is in the right place in your design workflow to help you minimize tool and tab switching. Multi-tasking can drastically kill your creativity. Switching between your website builder, ChatGPT, and other tools will likely slow you down. Since Divi AI is right in the UI of your editing interface, you can quickly leverage it when you need it. And all of this without another Chrome Extension.

    How to Use AI to Edit Website Copy

    You could be using other AI writers to create website copy. Many of them have Chrome Extensions that help you stay focused on the task. But the fact is, those extensions are a stop-gap. You get full use of an AI tool when you are logged into its primary offering. An extension is great, but Divi AI is the correct balance of a powerful AI tool perfectly nested in your design workflow. If you build websites with WordPress, you need to see what Divi AI can do to help you build faster.

    Here’s a closer look at how Divi AI can help you optimize website copy.

    Step 1: Enable Divi’s Visual Builder

    The best way to utilize Divi’s powerful AI features is through Divi’s no-code Visual Builder. This way, you can work on your page’s design in real-time. To make things easier, we will use a Divi Layout Pack to make things go by much faster. That said, you can follow along with your own content.

    Start by clicking the Enable Visual Builder button at the top WordPress menu of the page/post you want to edit in the visual builder.

    Optimize WordPress Content with AI - Steps 1

    Step 2: Edit Existing Text Module with Quick Actions

    With the Visual Builder active, scroll down to the text module in the hero section that contains lorem ipsum text. Hover over the module with your mouse until the settings appear.

    To edit a text module, click the grey settings icon while hovering over it.

    Optimize WordPress Content with AI - Steps 2

    In the “Body” field of the module, click the “AI” icon in the top right corner. From the AI action list, select one of the quick actions. We’ll select “Make it Better,” which runs the content through an AI prompt that makes it more readable and easy to understand. If you have specific edits in mind, select another quick action that matches your end goal for the text.

    Optimize WordPress Content with AI - Steps 3-4

    Quick actions do not require you to create a description prompt for Divi AI to edit your text. Simply select the action, and the AI will get to work. With the “Make it Better” quick action, Divi AI generates a new H2 title that we can use on our page. If you like it, click “Use This Text” to insert it into the module. You can also select “Retry” if you want Divi AI to reprocess the request or one of the quick actions to modify the result further.

    Optimize WordPress Content with AI - Steps 5

    Step 3: Optimizing Copy with Divi AI

    Divi AI lets you improve previously written text—whether you wrote it yourself or had AI create an initial draft. With an active text module (we’ll move down our page to a larger block of text), hover inside the text area and click the “AI” icon to reveal the available text options. Then, click “Improve with AI.” This will take the content already in the module and help us optimize it with AI.

    Improve with AI - Steps 1-2

    A new dialog box will appear with a few settings to be aware of:

    1. Content type: Choose between a paragraph, title, button, blog post, or social media post formats.
    2. What are you writing about: Give Divi AI information about the type of content you want to generate.
    3. Added Context: Choose from this page content, this section content, this module content, or no context.
    4. Guide me: This dropdown allows you to add more specifics, such as tone of voice, keywords, and content length, and lets you choose from over 130 languages.
    5. Generate text: Press to improve the content in your text module.

    We’ll use the following settings:

    1. Content Settings: Paragraph
    2. What are you writing about: “Write a context and expectation-setting paragraph of text for a landing page that tells potential clients of our social media consultancy just how hard it is to see results on social media without a proven method. Our method is proven.”
    3. Added context: No Context
    4. Tone of Voice: Creative
    5. Must use Keywords: “connection, growth, clients, social media, roi, unequaled.”
    6. Content length: About 150 words
    7. Language: Language of Website

    Improve with AI - Steps 3-9

    With these settings in place, click “Generate Text.” let’s see precisely how Divi AI improved our text based on our additional instructions. Remember, it used the base text that was in the module and updated it per our instructions. A lot of the time, it’s really close to what we need, so you can select “Use This Text” and do some minor editing yourself.

    Improve with AI - Steps 10

    Step 4. Further Refining AI Website Copy

    If you want to rerun the prompt, click “Retry.” If you like the new copy but want minor improvements, click the “Improve with AI” dropdown menu. This reveals these quick actions for you to use:

    • Make it better
    • Rephrase
    • Lengthen
    • Shorten
    • Simplify
    • Paraphrase
    • Fix spelling and grammar
    • Rewrite for experts or beginners
    • Translate to one of more than 130 languages
    • Change the tone
    • Make it more: detailed, descriptive, engaging, actionable, or generic

    Improve with AI - Steps 11-13

    To get more complex and custom with edits, you can add a text prompt to “Refine” your results. Once all your chosen settings are in place, click the “Regenerate” button to refine your text.

    AI Prompts for Editing & Website Copy Optimization (Examples)

    Your success with generative AI is primarily tied to the AI models you use and the prompts that you provide to such tools. Since you are well at editing copy with Divi AI and maybe have some experience with ChatGPT, we will show you some prompt starters that you can use. These will give you an idea about what is possible with AI content editing. As you get more familiar with these concepts, you’ll have your own preferences for prompting.

    Prompts for Editing the Style of Your Copy

    • Rework the sentence structure so it is written in strict accordance with AP Style guides with a specific focus on punctuation, grammar, capitalization, and abbreviations.
    • Rewrite this to fit American Business English. Change as little as possible while making sure it is readable to a wide American audience.
    • Line edit this copy to create punchy sentences while changing the flow and word choice as little as possible.
    • Lower the complexity of word choice and sentence length while retaining the original meaning of each of the sentences. Split some long sentences into multiple sentences where it makes sense. Rewritten copy should be written at an eighth-grade reading level with respect to word choice and sentence length.
    • Keep this content’s original meaning and wording while removing all fluff and filler words and phrases.

    Copywriting Prompts for Sales Copy

    • In the style of Eugene Schwartz, edit this headline so that the product/service benefit is perfectly matched with buyer wants and needs. Use a partial sentence to convey a PAS copywriting structure.
    • In the style of Joe Sugarman, rewrite this while avoiding puffery or over-exuberant claims. Instead, write with clear, real, and efficacious copy that consumers see as genuine and trustworthy.
    •  Use the Problem Promise Proof Proposal Copywriting Formula (PPPP) to help consumers understand what is on offer and exactly why they’d want it.

    Prompts for SEO Editing

    • At an eighth-grade level, add these keywords to the copy. Only use each keyword once. If possible, use other NPL and semantic topic words related to these keywords to increase topical coverage of this content. The keywords are: …
    • Keep the original content exactly as is, except for adding an additional sentence to the end of the “first paragraph.” This additional sentence needs to use the exact phrase “_______” since I will be adding an anchor link to support content found on example.com/keyword.
    • Create a list of questions to use in a FAQ section for the keyword and topic of “________.”
    • Edit this copy to make it more fitting a (Commercial/Informational/Transactional/Navigational) search intent.
    • Add fitting H3 sub-heading into this content to help with flow and reader skim-ability. Change as little as possible except for the addition of H3 headings.

    Use any of these prompts in the “Refine Result” section of Divi AI after it has completed an AI generation task for you. If you prefer, these prompts can be used with ChatGPT or its many alternatives.

  • How to Make a WordPress Website With AI

    Artificial intelligence is quickly becoming a tool that many sectors, including web design, are adding to their feature sets. Digital design and marketing are seeing many established tools add AI functionality to their products. The same can be said for WordPress. As one of the most popular website builders available, it’s no surprise that you see more AI plugins for WordPress. This guide will show you how to bring AI into your next WordPress build. First, let’s cover why you may want to use AI to make a WordPress website.

    Why Use AI to Make a WordPress Website

    You would want to make a WordPress website with AI for many reasons. Some of these benefits include:

    • Becoming more efficient: AI can assist you in getting both simple and advanced tasks done quicker. From automation to content generation, you can get more done with AI backing your WordPress website.
    • Stay on top of innovation: Using AI can help your WordPress website experiment with new features and be at the forefront of technological advances in the ecosystem. These new insights and additions can increase traffic, sales, and more.
    • Reduce labor and resource costs: AI can save money when used effectively. Using AI for your copy can save you from hiring copywriters. Having your layouts generated by AI design tools can save you from hiring a UI designer. These cost savings can be reinvested into other parts of your business.
    • Enhance your security: Security plugins rely on AI’s power to better protect WordPress websites. Plugins like Quttera Web Malware Scanner, which has a patented AI scan engine, now use machine learning to look for unknown and hidden WordPress malware in your website.
    • Improve your search presence: Many SEO plugins add AI capabilities to their toolset. As such, you can utilize these improvements in your WordPress sites by having a website that can perform better for search engines. This can lead to better rankings and more views on your website.

    Bearing this in mind, it’s evident that using AI to help build your WordPress website is a wise course of action.

    How AI Can Be Used to Build a WordPress Website

    There are plenty of AI tools that can be used to build and enhance a website. Some AI website-building platforms outside of WordPress, like WixADI or Hostinger AI, can generate your entire site from the start with AI. But, for many, all-in-one website builders lack the control and flexibility of WordPress. There is a reason it is still the best CMS for building websites.

    That said, WordPress users are looking for more streamlined methods of integrating AI into WordPress. Thankfully, AI-powered WordPress plugins, themes, and page builders are growing by the minute. This type of integration bridges the gap between AI and WordPress, making it easier than ever to build a site in WordPress.

    Considering all these AI tools at your disposal, here are a few ways you might use AI to build a WordPress website.

    Using External AI Tools to Build WordPress Websites

    There is a myriad of AI tools outside of WordPress that you can use to build your website. AI writing software and chatbots like ChatGPT can generate pretty much anything text or code you might need for a website, including WordPress. You can use it to create a thorough outline for your website, generate copy for your pages and posts, and write code to create WordPress plugins or other custom functionality you may need. You can even create entire HTML docs for your pages or templates. More robust AI writers like Jasper and Surfer SEO can help with SEO content.

    You can also use many of the same AI writers to improve existing copy for your site. And you can use Grammarly as a browser extension to help proofread and optimize your text inside the WordPress editor.

    On the design side, there are AI art generators that anyone can use (like MidJourney) to generate stunning AI images for your site. And if you are a graphic designer, you can take advantage of AI-powered design tools for photo editing and graphic design needed for your WordPress site.

    Using AI Plugins to Build Your WordPress Website

    Many WordPress plugins are starting to incorporate AI into their software. These allow users to use AI for content generation and other AI-automated tasks right inside WordPress. What makes AI plugins so great is that they work with popular WordPress themes which handle the design of your site, leaving AI to generate your content and enhance your existing design. For example, AI Engine brings the power of OpenAI and ChatGPT to your WordPress dashboard.

    AI Engine, a powerful WordPress AI plugin

    Some AI plugins are more about enhancing your existing site rather than generating new content. For example, SEO plugins like RankMath can streamline the creation of SEO content, and automation plugins like Uncanny Automator can automate and manage many WordPress tasks for you.

    For more, here’s a list of the best WordPress AI plugins to help get you started.

    Using AI Page Builders to Build Your WordPress Website (Recommended)

    WordPress page builders have changed the game for designing websites in WordPress. Even WordPress has a block editor that brings full site editing on the front end. Nothing seems to beat the drag-and-drop visual editing experience offered by Divi, Elementor, and other great page builders.

    The two AI page builders leading the way so far are Divi and Elementor. Elementor was the first to add AI integration to their page builder, allowing users to generate text, images, custom code, and more with an easy-to-use interface.

    Elementor AI

    Divi, our WordPress theme and page builder plugin, recently launched Divi AI. It includes , Acting as a powerful AI assistant inside the builder, Divi AI uses cutting-edge generative AI to generate text and images contextually as it learns about the existing content of your site.

    Using an AI page builder is one of the best ways to use AI to build a WordPress website because it is an all-in-one solution for both design and AI content generation.

    Although there are various AI tools, plugins, and page builders you can use in WordPress, there is a benefit to using a combination of external AI tools and native AI WordPress solutions. In this manner, you get the best of both worlds when building your WordPress site.

    How to Make a WordPress Website with AI (Step By Step)

    For this tutorial, we are going to dive right into how to use AI to build a WordPress website. To do it, we’ll be using ChatGPT to help with the planning process. Then, once WordPress is up and running, we are going to use Divi AI to demonstrate just how easy and efficient AI can build a WordPress website.

    Let’s get started.

    1. Map Out Your Website with AI  (ChatGPT)

    We will begin building our website by creating a simple outline in ChatGPT. To do this, navigate to ChatGPT. Next, enter the prompt, “Make a concise list of the pages an email marketing agency’s website should have?”.

    Website outline by ChatGPT

    ChatGPT gives us a list of eight pages we can create for our website in our first prompt. We can even go a step further and ask ChatGPT to outline what each page should contain as well:

    Page layout outlines created by ChatGPT for an email marketing agency

    Notice how in-depth ChatGPT’s AI was able to get when planning out the content and function of each page. We can use these to our advantage when building our pages, choosing modules, and creating the content for each page. We will be creating a five-page website for our fictional email marketing agency with the following pages:

    • Home
    • About Us
    • Services
    • Portfolio and
    • Contact Us

    With our outline, we now move into the website-building phase.

    2. Setup Your WordPress Website

    Some prerequisites must be met before we enter the new and exciting world of AI-powered WordPress web design. First, you’ll need to register a domain name for your site. A good domain name provider is NameCheap, but there are many domain name providers for you to choose from.

    Next, you’ll need to choose a hosting provider. This is important, so choose wisely. We recommend Siteground, Pressable, or Cloudways. However, our list of the best WordPress hosting options is also an excellent place to find the right one for your website.

    The final prerequisite for building a WordPress website is to install WordPress. Our definitive guide on installing WordPress shows you a few ways to set up a successful WordPress install.

    Now that you have your domain name, a secure web host, and WordPress installed, we can start building our website with the help of AI.

    3. Install Your WordPress Theme and AI Page Builder (Divi + Divi AI)

    Now that WordPress is installed, you are ready to install your theme. For this tutorial, we are going to use our Divi Theme, which includes a powerful AI page builder with Divi AI. (Note: The Divi builder and Divi AI are also available as a plugin to be used on any WordPress theme as well.)

    Intro to Divi and Divi AI

    Divi AI

     

    Divi is one of the most popular WordPress themes available. Its AI feature, Divi AI, works within its visual builder, bringing advanced prompting options, copy editing, and image generation to WordPress websites. One of the critical features of Divi AI is its ability to understand the copy already living on your web pages. This allows your website’s AI content to be created with context in mind. Divi AI is smart enough to understand what’s written within modules, sections, and pages and use that understanding to create new copy that fits into the realm of your webpage.

    The Divi AI roadmap promises to bring code generation, full layout generation, image editing, and more shortly. So stay tuned to see the magic unfold! As such, we’ll show you how to make a WordPress website with AI using Divi and Divi AI.

    Installing Divi + Divi AI

    Before you can use Divi, you’ll need to subscribe for a membership. Then you can download the theme or plugin from the members area.

    Divi AI is already integrated with Divi, so you won’t need to download anything else. You can use Divi AI for free with a limited trial period, but you can easily upgrade when that time comes.

    Once you download Divi, you can install it like you would any other WordPress theme in the WordPress Dashboard. For more details, you can follow this guide. After Divi is installed, we can start creating our website and creating content for our website.

    4. Add Site Title and Tagline for Divi AI

    Setting your site title and tagline in WordPress is an essential first step in training Divi AI. By doing this, you are giving Divi AI more context about your website. This will help better inform Divi AI as you seek to create content, generate images, and more while building your WordPress website.

    To begin, let’s assign a site name and tagline. From your WordPress dashboard, hover over the Settings menu item. Then, click General from the flyout menu.

    Set site title and tagline

    From there, give your site a title and tagline. You can also add your site languages, set your admin email, and more here. Once completed, click the blue Save Changes button at the bottom of the screen.

    Create site title and tagline for your new WordPress website

    With this in place, we can start building our website’s pages.

    5. Create Your First Page with Divi AI

    Equipped with our page names in hand from ChatGPT, we will now start creating the blank pages of our website. Hover over the Pages menu. Then, click on the Add New text link.

    Add new page to AI powered WordPress website

    Next, enter the name for your page, in this case, Home. Finally, click the blue Publish button at the top right-hand side of the screen.

    Name and publish your page

    Repeat this process for the other pages within your website’s sitemap.

    Install Layout from Layout Library

    Now that all our pages are created, we are ready to add our first premade Divi layout to the home page. Navigate to the home page we created again, hovering over the Pages menu item. Then, click on the All Pages link. You’ll be presented with our list of new pages for our website. A text link menu appears when you hover over the Home page’s row. Click on the Edit with Divi text link to activate the Divi Builder.

    Edit homepage with Divi

    We are now presented with three options. We will select the second option, Choose a Premade Layout, by clicking the purple button that says Browse Layouts.

    Browse the layout library

    In addition to being a powerful AI tool for WordPress, Divi comes with an ever-growing collection of premade templates and layouts that you can use for various sectors. In the search box, enter the search term email marketing. Then, select and install the Email Marketing Home Page Layout.

    Search for the Email Marketing Layout Pack

    Finally, select the blue Use this Layout button to begin the installation process. Deselect the Import Presets modal box that pops up.

    Select the home page page layout of the Email Marketing Layout Pack

    To complete our layout installation process, save the page by clicking the green Save button in the bottom right-hand corner.

    Save your homepage layout

    You can repeat this process for the other pages of your website, using the pre-created layouts – provided for free by Divi – to create a sleek and professional website for your agency.

    6. Start Creating Website Copy with Divi AI

    Though the layouts come with design, the copy included is boilerplate and repetitive. However, it gives us a good starting point to use AI to create better content. We’ll start by creating new titles for the various sections of our homepage. First, let’s start with the hero section:

    The homepage hero section on our Email Marketing layout

    With Divi AI, let’s create a different headline with a casual, down-to-earth tone. First, click the gear icon on the Text Module containing our hero section’s title.

    Edit the Text Module of the hero section

    Next, click the new blue Auto Generate Text with AI button, activating Divi AI within the Visual Builder.

    Auto generate hero section title with Divi AI

    Immediately, Divi AI can provide us with another option for our hero section’s title.

    Auto generated content with Divi AI, right within the visual builder!

    While this is a good option, let’s see if we can enhance it with Divi AI. Click Improve with AI from the Divi AI modal box to do this. We’re presented with many options regarding what we can do with our new hero headline. Let’s click Change Tone and select the Casual tone from the list of options provided.

    Choose a casual tone of voice with Divi AI

    Our new hero headline now reads as follows:

    Auto generated content with Divi AI, right within the visual builder!

    When we compare both the titles, we see that this new version has a different, more welcoming feel than the first one, which felt stale and cookie-cutter. Now, let’s do this same process with the other titles on our page. To save our new copy, click the blue Use This Text button. Next, click the green checkmark Save button.

    Set the new title in place

    We’ll use the same casual tone for the rest of the titles on our page. For our next section, titled Our Services, we used Divi AI to add more context and vibrancy:

    Using AI to change the Our Services section title

    This section’s title is now “Get Ready to Explore Our Awesome Services!”

    The new section title of the Our Services section

    After updating all our titles, let’s move on to the page content.

    Create Body Content

    To create content with Divi AI, we will edit the text within the various Text Modules of our page. We will also use Divi AI’s powerful context feature to ensure our text can build upon other modules as we use AI to generate it. We’ll start with the sentences under our new page title. Click on the gear icon of the Text Module within the hero section that is under the title.

    Edit content text module

    Next, remove the current text that is within the Text Module. Finally, click the Divi AI icon to provide the Write with AI option.

    Erase previous content and click Write with AI

    Now, we’re presented with several options that we can use to have AI create the content for our lead text:

    1. Content Type: We’re letting Divi AI know that we’re creating a paragraph of text
    2. What are you writing about?: We added our prompt, “Create a few sentences introducing an email marketing agency.”
    3. Added Context: This page content will be used to advise Divi’s AI as to how to generate this paragraph text.
    4. Tone of Voice: We want this lead text to be funny to match the casual tone that we have for our section titles
    5. Must Use Keywords: SEO is an essential step of copywriting, so we added a long tail keyword that will help us with ranking in our city

    Add your settings to Divi AI to generate content

    After entering these in, click Generate text. Now, we’ll see the paragraph that Divi AI created for our home page:

    The paragraph generated by Divi AI for our intro paragraph

    While this is a great first draft, it’s a bit long. So, we’ll use Divi AI to improve this paragraph. First, we click Improve with AI. Then, we click Shorten.

    Shorten the paragraph with Divi AI

    Notice how Divi AI cut our paragraph down and made it more concise.

    Use a prompt to rewrite the paragraph to be shorter still

    With our new intro paragraph in place, we save our work by clicking the blue Use This Text Button and then the green check mark button to save our Text Module.

    Save our new intro paragraph

    Use a similar process to update the various Text Modules throughout your pages. Divi AI has many quick actions that you can take to optimize your copy further.

    7. Generate Images with Divi AI

    Divi AI doesn’t just work with copy. It can also manipulate images! We’re going to update the icons that are used within the services section of our homepage. To begin, click on the gear icon of the first Image Module.

    Edit the Image Module

    Next, click on the Divi AI icon. Next, click Generate with AI. This is where the fun begins!

    Generate new image with Divi AI

    We can now feed Divi AI with various prompts to create a stunning new image for our web page. We set the image style to photo. Divi AI has more than ten different image styles you can use. Next, we add an image description. You can also add a reference photo and set your image’s aspect ratio or specific pixel size. We left all of these as the default. Finally, we click Generate.

    Ge

    Divi AI will generate four options for us. Click the option that most resonates with you. If you’re unhappy with the choices, click the Generate More Like button. Once you’re satisfied, then, click the blue Use This Image. Finally, click the green checkmark button to input your new, AI-generated image.

    Use Divi AI generated image

    Do this with the other image modules on your page and have fun with the various styles, sizes, and prompts that you can put together to create unique art pieces for your website.

    8. Revising, Proofreading, and Improving Copy with Divi AI

    At this time, we’ve covered how to plan your website from pages to content with AI through ChatGPT. We’ve also reviewed how to create our copy with Divi AI and create new digital artwork for our web pages. Continue this process for the other pages of your website, mixing and matching different prompts, quick actions, and more! Once your website is complete, you can use Divi AI to proofread and check the spelling and grammar of your page content.

    Fix spelling and grammar with Divi AI

    Additionally, fact-checking and proofreading with a human reader is essential when creating long-form content like articles and blog posts.

    Improving Your Website with AI

    Now that you’ve finished creating the pages of your WordPress websites, there are still some things to do and consider after using AI in your website-building process: :

    • Add Additional Features with Plugins: The power of WordPress is in its exhaustive library of plugins. From booking plugins to security plugins, WordPress has it all—research which ones you’ll need to use to bring additional functionality to your website. Also, consider adding AI-powered WordPress plugins that bring artificial intelligence into the day-to-day running of your website.
    • Optimize Your Website for Search Engines: Doing onsite SEO tasks like optimizing your content, creating meta descriptions, and more is good. This helps your web pages be found on Google, Bing, and other search engines. There are plenty of AI SEO tools that you can use to help you with this, as well as WordPress plugins that can facilitate this process.
    • Check the Quality of Images Generated: AI hands may be a funny meme but could tarnish your brand. After having AI-generated images, double-check their quality and ensure that they align with your brand’s values.
    • Proofread and Fact Check AI-Generated Copy: Even big players like ChatGPT have had their fair share of controversy surrounding the accuracy and validity of the information it provides. Carefully read through your website before making it live, and also check for spelling and grammatical errors that may have been missed.
    • Remember to Combine Premade and Original Assets and Content with AI: AI is a tool that can help you create content, make art, and build websites. The best way to use AI is to combine it with human-made and original content created by people.

    With these things in mind, you’re on your way to building a beautiful, AI-informed WordPress website!

    Conclusion

    Building a WordPress website with AI will soon become commonplace. While, at the moment, there isn’t one tool that can build a WordPress website entirely from scratch, you can create your own AI tech stack to do just that. Planning, copy, imagery, and more are all aspects of website building that now have powerful AI tools to help their process. As such, looking at how these tools can better help you build your next WordPress website isn’t a bad idea. How would you use AI to build a WordPress website?

  • How to Write a WordPress Blog Post With AI

    Maintaining a blog on your WordPress site is essential for providing valuable content to your readers. Also, blog posts can help your site appear on search engine ranking pages (SERPs) when written well. In the past, those without good writing skills would have to hire someone to write their posts or, worse, not have a blog. Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT and Divi AI, you can harness this new technology to help craft your posts for you. In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps to write a WordPress blog post with AI.

    Let’s get started.

    What is WordPress?

    WordPress.org

    WordPress is a popular content management system (CMS) that is utilized on more than 43% of all websites on the internet. It started as a blog platform in the late 90s and has evolved into a website-building powerhouse used by freelancers, web agencies, and large corporations. There are two types of WordPress. .org and .com. While they are built by the same people, there are some differences. So everything is clear, we will be working in WordPress.org, which is self-hosted and comes with nearly unlimited customization options.

    What is AI?

    Divi AI image

    AI is the development of computers that use machine learning to achieve tasks that would normally require humans to do. AI can train these systems to generate images, text, video, music, and more. This type of AI is called generative AI, which involves intensive training between two systems, or generative adversarial networks (GANs), containing a discriminator and a generator. They work together to compare the generator’s output to the data the system was trained on. For example, during image generation, the generator presents output to the discriminator, which tries to determine if it’s real or fake. As training continues, the generator will be better at output, so the discriminator can’t tell the difference between the two.

    Some of the more popular AI text and image generators like Divi AI, Jasper, Writesonic, and ChatGPT have many uses, including writing blog posts, creating realistic images, and more.

    What is Divi AI?

    Divi AI

    Divi AI is the newest, most exciting product launch in recent memory. Based on Stable Diffusion and Open AI models, Divi AI can write content and generate images right inside the Visual Builder. That said, Divi AI is built a bit differently than other generative AI. Made specifically for Divi, it understands all of Divi’s design elements and can make suggestions for text and images based on the associated content on the page. For example, if your page is about a Maine Coon cattery, Divi AI will suggest text related to Maine Coon cats. This incredible new tech will make creating Divi websites easier than ever!

    How to Write a WordPress Blog Post With AI

    With all of the AI technology available to WordPress users today, there are several ways to create a blog post using AI. However, for this post, we will concentrate on two routes. The first uses Divi AI, and the other uses ChatGPT and Midjourney.

    Regardless of the method used, using the Gutenberg editor to create blog posts is recommended. The primary reason for this is that full site editing themes like Divi or Twenty Twenty-Three allow you to create templates to showcase your site’s content. We won’t go into detail about Gutenberg here, but this post outlines how to get around in the block editor. If you’re a Divi user already, you’ll be happy to know that we released improved compatibility with the block editor back in 2022 by introducing the Divi layout block. It allows you to use the Gutenberg editor and Divi Builder simultaneously, which will be needed to use Divi AI.

    Creating a Template

    Before creating your first post, you’ll need to learn how to create a template using Gutenberg or Divi. When your template is created, you can get down to business.

    Step 1: Crafting the Blog Post Outline

    We’ll outline the steps to create a blog outline using ChatGPT. While this step isn’t necessary, it will help you form your thoughts and give you a structure for AI to follow. If you haven’t already, sign up for an account with ChatGPT. Version 3.5 is free, but you must sign up for a paid plan for the more advanced version. For our post, we want to feature the dog-like qualities of Maine Coon cats, so we’ll use the following prompt: Create a blog post outline describing how Maine Coon cats are like dogs.

    ChatGPT will get to work on creating an outline for our post:

    ChatGPT blog outline

    Step 2: Create a New Post

    To create a new post, log into your WordPress dashboard, then navigate to posts (1). Next, click the Add New button (2) to create your first post.

    add new blog post

    Next, we’ll need to add a title to our post (1). Let’s use the one generated with ChatGPT: The Canine Charm of Maine Coon Cats: Unveiling Their Dog-Like Traits.
    If using Divi, click the default editor button (2) to load Gutenberg.

    WordPress blog post editor

    Step 3: Writing the Intro

    With the post created, the first step is to add an intro paragraph.

    Using ChatGPT

    Creating an introductory paragraph is simple using ChatGPT. Head back to the interface and write the prompt: Create an introductory paragraph using the outline above. Keep it under 300 words, briefly touch on the points in the outline, and give it a human tone of voice.

    Now, you can do one of two things here. You can copy and paste the generated paragraph or use it to aid you in creating original content. Because we want to keep things ethical, we’ll change the introductory paragraph by using the generated output merely as a guide.

    ChatGPT intro paragraph

    Paste the output into the default editor by adding a paragraph block. To do this, click the + icon (1) in the page builder or navigate to the list view (2) to add a paragraph block there.

    adding a block

    Using Divi Within Gutenberg

    We’ll need to set things up differently if using Divi. We’ll use Divi to create our post rather than adding a paragraph block to add content. The initial process is the same, except for the block. Click the + icon (1), then search for and add the Divi Layout block (2).

    Divi Layout block

    Next, click the Build New Layout button.

    build new layout

    To create our new layout, we’ll build it from scratch. Click the Start Building button to continue.

    start building with Divi

    Choose the single column row.

    Getting Familiar With the Divi AI Interface

    Generating text with Divi AI is a snap. To start, click the Generate Content with AI button (1) or hover over the placeholder text to reveal the AI icon (2). You’ll have two options: Write with AI (3) or Write Automatically (4). Choosing the automatic option will generate text automatically. This is an excellent feature for posts and pages with content you want to expand on. For this case, however, we’ll choose to write with AI. This will allow us to give Divi some context.

    Divi blog post AI

    You’ll notice a new dialog box with a few features when your screen refreshes. Let’s briefly explain what each setting does:

    1. Content Type: This allows you to generate a paragraph, title, button, blog post, or social media post.
    2. What are you writing about: Use this to give Divi a starting point for your text.
    3. Added Context: If you’ve started creating your post already, you can use this to give Divi context. Options include this page content, this section content, this module content, or no context.
    4. Tone of Voice: Choose the writing style you prefer from the available options: creative, informative, and funny.
    5. Must use keywords: Add important keywords to your text.
    6. Content length: Specify how many words, sentences, characters, paragraphs, or list items you require.
    7. Language: Here, you can specify the language. You can either use the language of your prompt or choose from over 130 supported languages.
    8. Generate Text: Generate text with Divi AI.

    Divi AI options

    Generating Text with Divi AI

    To generate our first paragraph, we’ll choose the following options:

    1. Content type: Paragraph
    2. What are you writing about: Write an introductory paragraph about how Maine Coon cats have dog-like qualities
    3. Added Context: No context
    4. Tone of Voice: Creative
    5. Must use keywords: Maine Coon, dog-like
    6. Content length: Exactly 200 words
    7. Language: Language of prompt

    With the settings in place, click the generate button to produce the text. Divi will create the text based on your prompt. If you are satisfied with the results, click the Use this text button (1). Alternatively, if you want to make changes, you can modify the output by clicking retry (2) or by selecting the improve with AI dropdown menu (3). You can make it better, rephrase, lengthen, shorten, simplify, paraphrase, or modify it by changing the tone of voice, amongst other options. If you’d like to refine it, you can add more details in refine result (4) text field, then click regenerate (5).

    refine generated text Divi AI

    Step 4: Creating Blog Post Images

    The next step is to create an image for our post. After all, blog posts are better with supporting photos. They provide visual aids, keep your readers engaged, and serve as a way to boost your site’s search engine optimization (SEO) using alt tags.

    We’ll showcase two ways to generate images for your WordPress blog post: Midjourney and Divi AI.

    Using Midjourney

    Midjourney

    image created with Midjourney

    Midjourney hit the scene earlier this year and has become one of the most popular platforms for creating images. We won’t go into the steps to use it here, as we have an in-depth tutorial already created for you. Midjourney generates some of the most incredible AI art you’ll find. However, we should caution you on using it commercially. Due to ongoing litigation, its future is unclear. That said, generating images with it is likely ok if you are a paid subscriber. This post concentrates on the second method, Divi AI.

    Using Divi AI

    Another (and better) way to create images for your blog posts is by using Divi AI’s built-in image generation tool. It functions like the AI text generator, where you can create, refine, and use pictures within your posts or pages. Unlike other AI image generators, there’s no need to use a separate platform. With Divi AI, you get the power of Stable Diffusion right in the Visual Builder. To create an image using Divi AI, add an image module to your post.

    Divi image module

    To activate AI, hover over the placeholder image in the module to reveal the AI icon.

    Divi AI icon

    Upon clicking the icon, you’ll have two options: Generate with AI or Generate Automatically. Select the first option.

    Generate AI image

    Divi AI Image Settings

    Before generating an image, let’s go over the settings so you’ll understand how things work. We won’t go over everything related to generating images, like prompting tips, but we will show you the basics.

    1. Image style: Choose from 13 style presets, including photo, digital painting, vector art, and more.
    2. Image description: The text prompt field you’ll use to describe your desired image.
    3. Reference image: If you have an image in mind that isn’t quite what you need, you can use it as a reference image to assist Divi AI in creating the perfect one.
    4. Aspect ratio: You can choose from square (1:1), Landscape (8:5), portrait (3:4), or a custom size.
    5. Size: The pixels (width x height) for your image.
    6. Generate: Generates an image based on the settings above.

    Generate an Image Using Divi AI

    Now that you know the interface, we can generate our first image. Since our blog post is about Maine Coon cats, we’ll generate an image that can be used in our post that we can also apply as our featured image. With the AI image dialog box opens, input the following settings:

    • Image style: Photo
    • Image description: photograph of a brown sortie Maine Coon cat, lying on a sofa, looking out the window, award winning photography, soft shadows, midday lighting, cinematic photography
    • Reference image: none
    • Aspect ratio: Landscape (8:5)
    • Size: 1280 x 800

    With the settings in place, click the generate button to generate your photo.

    generate Divi image

    When the process completes, Divi will provide four images for you. To choose one, click on your favorite (1), then click Use this image (2). Alternatively, you can generate more like it (3), generate four more (4), change the style (5), or add a completely new description (6) to regenerate it (7).

    image generation

    Once you select a photo to use, Divi will automatically place it into your image module. From there, you can upscale it to make it a higher quality image by clicking the AI icon again and selecting upscale in the settings.

    upscale Divi AI image

    Step 5: Writing the Post Content

    Now that we’ve generated our title, introductory paragraph, and featured image, let’s walk through the steps needed to create the body copy.

    Using ChatGPT

    To create the body of your blog post using ChatGPT, you’ll repeat the steps outlined above. Head back over to ChatGPT, then instruct it to complete the body of the post. You can do this by entering the following prompt: Based on the outline above, create the post content minus the conclusion. Make it no longer than 1500 words, and use the same tone of voice in the introductory paragraph.

    ChatGPT body copy

    ChatGPT will proceed in creating the body copy for your post. As previously stated, you should use this text as a guide rather than simply copying and pasting it into your post. There are several reasons for this. First, ChatGPT has been known to suffer from hallucinations or falsehoods. Therefore, you should always fact-check everything it gives you. Secondly, Google is getting better at recognizing AI-generated content. This is a grey area since the technology is so new, but some indications using generated content without a human touch could hurt you in the SERPs.

    Additionally, there will obviously be plagiarism concerns, especially since ChatGPT was training on information pulled directly from the internet. Lastly, generated content generally needs more creativity and personality. Therefore, we recommend taking what it gives you as a guide to overcoming writer’s block or for inspiration in more creative writing.

    Using Divi AI

    Now that Divi AI has a bit of context, we can proceed one of two ways: use Divi AI to create the entire post or generate a few paragraphs at a time. The method you choose depends on whether you plan on making more images. If you only plan to have one image in your post, Divi can create your entire post for you. However, if you want to create additional supporting photos, you’ll need to create a few paragraphs at a time. To generate your entire post, activate Divi AI by adding a new text module and clicking the AI icon again. Choose blog post from the dropdown menu when the dialog box appears.

    write blog post with AI

    In the What are you writing about text field, head back to ChatGPT to copy the blog outline we created in step 1, then paste it into the field. Be sure to omit the intro section.

    blog post context

    Click guide me (1) to reveal the additional settings. Be sure to add your tone of voice (2), must use keywords (3), specify the number of words to generate (4), select the language (5), then generate your post (6).

    generate blog post

    Tip: When generating content with Divi AI, add headlines for your important paragraphs. Also, use Divi AI’s word settings to keep paragraphs under 300 words. By doing this, you’ll achieve a higher SEO score with your chosen SEO plugin.

    Step 6: Writing the Conclusion

    Writing the conclusion paragraph is the last step in creating your first post. If using ChatGPT, all you have to do is provide it a prompt to complete the post. For example, give it the following: Based on the outline above, write a conclusion paragraph in the same writing style.

    ChatGPT conclusion

    Write Conclusion with Divi AI

    To create our conclusion paragraph, we’ll take a slightly different approach. Instead of leaving the context blank, for this last paragraph, we’ll have Divi write a conclusion based on the content of our post. To do this, add a new text module, then fill in the following settings:

    1. Content type: Paragraph
    2. What are you writing about: Summarize the various ways in which Maine Coon cats exhibit dog-like traits.
    3. Added context: this page content
    4. Tone of voice: Creative
    5. Must use keywords: Maine Coon cats
    6. Content length: About 250 words
    7. Language: Language of prompt

    Divi AI conclusion paragraph

    That’s it! You’ve successfully created a well-written blog post with Divi AI.

    Blog Post Images

    So you can get a better idea of how amazing Divi AI image creation is, we thought you might like to take a look at the images we generated for our Maine Coon cat post:

    Prompt:Photo of a Maine Coon cat sitting in a window, majestic, award winning photography

  • How to Use AI in WordPress (10 Useful Ways)

    If you’re not using AI with your WordPress site, you’re missing out on many new opportunities. From improving SEO to enhancing user experience, AI can transform your WordPress website into an even better version of what it is now. There are many promising AI plugins for WordPress coming on the scene to help you do just that. But how do you get started? In this post, we’ll cover some of the best ways you can use AI with WordPress and how to do it.

    How to Use AI in WordPress (10 Ways)

    With the enormous popularity of AI tools, it is not surprising that there are some specifically targeted to building websites. AI can be a helpful web design assistant. It can create written content, generate art and images, enhance existing content, and more, for you website. However, for those building a site on WordPress, it is important to know what AI tools are available for WordPress and how to use them.

    With that in mind, here are ten of the most effective ways to combine the power of AI with your WordPress sites:

    1. Generate Text Content with AI in WordPress

    One of the best contextual AI tools for web design is Divi AI. Unlike other AI writers like Jasper and ChatGPT, Divi AI brings the power of AI text generation inside your WordPress website.

    Divi AI has unique insight into each Divi module and page element, which helps it generate contextually-relevant content.

    Divi AI Banner

    Imagine the possibilities: auto-generating content with one click, receiving highly relevant and on-brand results that match your page perfectly.

    Divi AI is designed to learn from your site, analyzing existing page content and high-level website details to create consistent, relevant, and contextual content.

    Divi AI for WordPress AI Text Generation

    With it, you can maintain your unique brand voice and writing style. It’s like having a professional copy editor at your side, ready to assist you in creating on-brand written content and stunning visuals.

    But how can it do this? Well, as we briefly mentioned above, it does this by understanding existing content on your site. Here’s the preloaded data that is tokenized for each AI request:

    1. Website Title
    2. Website Tagline
    3. Current Page Title
    4. All Page Modules and Content on the Current Page
    5. Current Divi Module You’re Working With

    Between these pieces of context, Divi AI knows what you are trying to do at the moment. Instead of loading Jasper up with desperate “Knowledge Assets” or ChatGPT with “Custom Instructions,” Divi is malleable and always looking at your current page.

    Because of that, you can have confidence that Divi AI is up to your content generation tasks. Divi AI is now your most valuable assistant, no matter what page, website, or client project you are working on.

    2. Generate Incredible Images with AI in WordPress

    Divi AI is more than just a text content producer. It can also handle images in both obvious and unexpected ways.

    Divi AI is the easiest way to create images that work with your pre-existing page designs. Either create an image from scratch or iterate from a reference image that gives you more control over the final output.

    Editing images can also be as simple as changing the style of your original image.

    Divi AI Change Styles of Image

    With Divi AI, you can free up valuable time while still creating exceptional results. You can start by purchasing a Divi membership + the Divi AI service.

    3. Drastically Improve WordPress SEO

    Artificial intelligence can potentially change how you approach your SEO strategy entirely. It analyzes your content, suggests improvements, and even predicts how well it will perform in search engine rankings. This is not about keyword stuffing or meta tags; it’s about creating content that is genuinely valuable to your audience and optimized for search engines.

    One tool that stands out in this regard is Rank Math’s Content AI. It’s a WordPress plugin that uses AI to help you optimize your content for SEO. It’s always had an SEO Score based on important yet generic SEO metrics. But it also now has Content AI, which uses AI to analyze a keyword and SERP and compare your content with it.

    Rank Math Content AI vs SEO Score

     

    It provides dynamic suggestions based on your focus keyword’s language and target country. Rank Math’s Content AI tells you exactly how many words to write, what headings to use, how many links to insert, and how much media to embed. It even suggests related keywords (semantic keywords) and which questions to answer for your content.

    Rank Math - Semantic Keywords via WP AI

    With Rank Math’s Content AI, you can take the guesswork out of SEO and create content that ranks. You can install the Rank Math SEO plugin and purchase the Content AI credits separately. Rank Math is a premier WordPress SEO plugin that we can’t stop recommending. Its AI capabilities make it all the more worthwhile to use.

    4. Add Custom Chatbots to WordPress

    The beauty of AI is its ability to interact with your website visitors in real-time, providing them with immediate, personalized responses. Custom chatbots powered by AI can significantly enhance the user experience on your WordPress site, making it more interactive and engaging. They can answer questions, guide users to possible next steps, and even help with sales and support while learning from each interaction to improve future responses.

    One of the most user-friendly and efficient chatbot plugins for WordPress is Chatbase. It also works with other CMSs, but the Chatbase plugin for WordPress makes it even easier to use.

    This tool allows you to build chatbots that can interact with visitors, answer their questions, and guide them to the right resources. It’s like having a virtual assistant that works 24/7, without any breaks. It does this by storing whatever content you want to master and using it as a source of truth for all conversations. Chatbase handles multiple file types, plain text, and content from specific URLs and includes a way to pre-train answers to certain questions.

    Chatbase WordPress AI Chatbot Training Data Types

    Chatbase bot training is very easy to use—especially if you already have the content you want to train it with. It almost effortlessly creates an interactive and engaging user experience on your WordPress site. Even getting it trained on live customer conversations is easy. You can look up any conversation and tell Chatbase how it should have responded.

    Update Chat Responses from Live Chat History

    If you want to mix AI chat support and human support better, you could look at a different tool like ChatBot by ChatBot.com, which also has a WordPress plugin. Chatbase is best for autonomous AI chatbots, whereas ChatBot.com is excellent for mixing humans with AI.

    5. Enrich Web Forms with AI

    Forms are the backbone of any website, collecting information, generating leads, and facilitating user interactions. But managing and optimizing forms can be a tedious task. Enter AI – your new form management partner. AI can streamline form-related tasks, predict user input, and dynamically adjust form fields based on individual preferences, making form interactions more personalized and efficient.

    One such tool that brings the power of AI to your WordPress forms is Formidable Forms.

     

    It integrates with OpenAI to show generative AI responses to users based on form field inputs. If you have an idea about getting AI to output some content when a user uses a form, this is an excellent feature with Formidable Forms to try.

    Gravity Forms via the OpenAI Addon by Gravity Wiz has the same functionality but for those who use and love Gravity Forms. But it can also use AI to populate hidden fields for internal use. See how Gravity Wiz uses AI to analyze the sentiment of form entries in a feedback form.

    6. Translation for Multilingual WordPress Sites

    Today, language should never be a hurdle for websites. Your site should be a global village, accessible to users from every nook and cranny, regardless of their language or location. If you want to interact with more people, you should.

    But let’s face it, managing translations for a multilingual site can be a tall order. What if there was a way to simplify it and make your site global without the hassle of manual translations?

    Weglot is an AI-powered translation plugin that makes your WordPress site multilingual.

    Weglot AI Translation for WordPress

    But Weglot doesn’t just translate your content; it ensures that Google indexes each translated post/page easily. Given that higher-priced tiers give you more AI-generated translations, pairing Weglot with the translation capabilities of Divi AI could help you pay less. Use Weglot to handle your site structure for different language pages, and you can supplement Divi AI translations since it has unlimited AI generation.

    Divi AI Translate Webpage - Steps 6-9

    However you go about it, AI + WordPress ensures that language is no longer a barrier but a bridge connecting your site to the world.

    7. Optimize Images

    Visual content is the lifeblood of any website. It captures attention, conveys emotions, and enhances the overall aesthetic appeal. But managing and optimizing images can be a complex task. What if there was a way to simplify it to ensure your photos are visually stunning and optimized for performance?

    For AI Image Compression, you’re welcome to give ShortPixel a try. ShortPixel is an AI-powered plugin that optimizes your images without compromising their quality.

    ShortPixel AI Image Optimization for WordPress

    It uses advanced compression algorithms to reduce file sizes while maintaining the visual quality of your images. ShortPixel AI also automatically resizes and scales images for end users’ device resolutions via its image CDN. That means images are loaded only as big as they need to be, drastically speeding up WordPress sites with the power of AI!

    But that’s not all. ShortPixel goes beyond just compression. It offers features like lazy loading, which defers offscreen images until needed, and incorrect image size detection, which helps you quickly locate images slowing down your site. Plus, it works in the background, optimizing your photos even when you’ve closed the plugin.

    8. Write Custom Coded Solutions for WordPress

    Customization is the key to standing out in the digital landscape. Your WordPress site should be unique, reflecting your brand’s identity and meeting your needs. But writing custom code can be a bit time-consuming. What if there was a way to simplify it, to create custom solutions without getting lost in lines of code?

    Meet CodeWP, a service that uses AI to write custom code snippets for your WordPress site.

    Codewp - Homepage May 2023

    CodeWP doesn’t just generate code—it creates solutions tailored to your needs. Whether you want to add a new feature or enhance an existing one, CodeWP has got you covered.

    9. Generate Alt Tags for Images

    Images are more than just visual elements on your website; they’re integral to your site’s SEO. Alt tags help search engines understand the content of your images. But manually writing alt tags can be a tedious task. What if there was a way to automate it, ensuring every image on your site has an accurate and SEO-friendly alt tag?

    Enter AltText.ai, an AI-powered plugin that automates generating alt tags.

    AltText.ai Homepage - August 2023

    It doesn’t just generate alt tags—it creates accurate descriptions based on an AI-driven analysis of your images.

    Creative Use-Cases to Try with Divi AI


    Subscribe To Our Youtube Channel

    AI is expansive enough in what it can do. Plug that directly into your website creation and editing flow, and you have an unparalleled opportunity.

    Here are a few lesser-known use cases for generative AI inside Divi. We’ll start with Divi AI’s translation capabilities.

    1. Translate Pages Using AI

    With Divi AI, you can harness the power of artificial intelligence to translate your website pages effortlessly. No more struggling with manual translation or relying on third-party services. Divi AI’s language capabilities make it a perfect tool for creating multilingual websites.

    To test how translation might serve your business, duplicate your most important page. Give the duplicate page a URL structure specific to that language—in our case, we are doing “/es/services/rebranding” to translate a rebranding service page from English into Spanish. Combining a translation plugin and Divi AI will make it easier to translate a whole website and keep a clean site/URL structure.

    Now that we have a page to translate, we will start with the page title and excerpt. Click on page settings. In the Title field, find the Divi AI button. From there, select “Translate” and then choose your language.

    Divi AI Translate Webpage - Steps 1-4

    Divi AI will take a couple of seconds to translate your content. Click “Use This Text” to swap out the English text for the newly translated text.

    Divi AI Translate Webpage - Steps 5

    The steps will be the same for translating the rest of the page. Select each module, click the Divi AI icon, “Translate,” then continue selecting the same language.

    Divi AI Translate Webpage - Steps 6-9

    This feature opens up endless possibilities for businesses looking to expand their reach and cater to a global audience.

    Divi AI Translation Example Page

    While translating with any AI tool is fantastic, we still recommend using humans to edit translated content. The internet and its users deserve access to quality content. Check your pages and make sure they were translated well. Divi AI makes this process much quicker to deliver a multilingual experience at scale.

    2. Change the Style of Existing Images with AI

    With Divi AI, you can upgrade your site’s visuals in a new and easier way. Utilizing the power of artificial intelligence, you can now update and enhance images that are already on your site while bypassing graphic design software. Generate alternate versions of any image by adjusting it directly in the Divi builder.

    Start by selecting an existing image inside a module. Select “Improve with AI” or choose the quick actions to “Reimagine” or “Change Style” to reinvent the image with simplified parameters.

    Divi AI Edit Image - Steps 1-4

    Using “Improve with AI,” you can control all the variables that go into editing your image. Choose an image style, image alteration description, reference image (it is preloaded), and the reference image influence percentage. Once you’ve got something you think will work, click “Generate.”

    Divi AI Edit Image - Steps 5-8

    Divi AI will work on the image for a few seconds, generating four image options based on your prompt and seed/reference image. See something that you like? Select any generated image and click “Use This Image” to load it into your Divi module. If you like the direction Divi AI is taking but want more options, select an image and use the “Generate More Like This One” button to generate four more options.

    Divi AI Edit Image - Steps 9-10

    In our example, we created used the existing image plus a simple prompt to get something that was closer to what we wanted. In this case, it’s a similar image with different colors to match the other image in the section a little better.

    Divi AI Image Editing Example Picture

    Whether you need to optimize existing product images or retouch eye-catching visuals for your pages and posts, Divi AI’s image editing capabilities make it easier than ever to get what you want.

    3. Use Divi AI for Writer’s Block

    Divi AI is contextually aware of every connected site’s general information and the current page’s content. This awareness allows it to create content without using typed-out prompts.

    If you have a page that’s short on content and are unsure what to do next, use Divi AI for suggestions.

    All you have to do is add a module to your page (even if you don’t have a complete idea for it yet). In this case, we added a “CTA Module” that has room for a title, body, and button text. Clicking “Auto Generate Text With AI” will get the gears turning where Divi AI will consider the available context to create content in the module.

    Divi AI Quick Content Suggestion - Steps 1-2

    Divi AI will show you the title, button, and body text it came up with. If you like what it came up with, click “Use This Text,” or use the retry/refine options to get closer to your new direction. Without any extra input, Divi AI can come up with something for you to consider.

    Divi AI Quick Content Suggestion - Steps 3

    Once you have something close enough, using the text lets you edit the text yourself in the module’s text settings.

    Divi AI Quick Content Suggestion - Steps 4

    Divi AI’s auto text generation will help you brainstorm even when you think you’ve hit a wall.

    4. Create Unique AI Content with Advanced Editing Quick Actions

    Sometimes we make mistakes in our writing. Maybe we’re writing in our second language, hurriedly publishing an important update, or have old, bad habits (like me not being able to spell “ambulance” without using spell check).

    For just these reasons, the next creative Divi AI use case is for AI text correction and editing. Open any Divi module that has existing text, click the AI icon, and select “Fix Spelling & Grammar.” This will run that content through the mind of a meticulous AI copy editor and fix all the major issues.

    Fix Spelling and Grammar Divi AI - Steps 1-3

    With a fine-toothed comb, Divi AI will correct any mishaps and mistypes in your content. Common and uncommon spelling and grammar mistakes alike are a thing of the past.

    What’s more, Divi AI has dozens of quick editing presets that can keep the main idea of your content but transform it into something more than it is now.

    Shorten, lengthen, rephrase, simplify, and paraphrase are all quick actions you can perform to your content with AI, along with changing tone. Having these quick actions just a click away, you can make multiple adjustments to your content to make it unique to your brand.

    5. Generate Fast FAQ Content

    AI is especially useful and quick at generating FAQs for web pages. Divi AI handles this with ease.

    The simplest way to get this done is to add an accordion module. Use Divi AI to generate a good question in the first accordion element. Even better if you are pulling questions from an SEO tool like Semrush. Add your parameters and click “Generate Text.”

    Divi AI for Generating FAQs - Steps 1-3

    If you used Divi AI to come up with or rephrase a question, you can click “Use This Text” to insert the AI-generated question into the module.

    Divi AI for Generating FAQs - Steps 4 Once the Accordion element has a title, you can move on to the body text to answer the question. Click the “AI” button and then select “Write & Replace” (or your preferred Divi AI writing shortcut). This will bring up the Divi AI modal.

    Divi AI for Generating FAQs - Steps 5-6

    You can see what it came up with in the Divi AI modal. If you like it as-is, then select “Use This Text.” No worries if it still needs work—you have unlimited AI word generation. You can use the “Refine Result” by adding a specific prompt or command. You can also use a quick action with the “Retry” option and select what you want Divi AI to do to the text by using the drop-down.

    Divi AI for Generating FAQs - Steps 7-9

    This is a fast way to create FAQs which are so important for modern SEO. Divi AI can rapidly answer tons of questions for your customers and help them find what they need to know.

    6. Create Perfectly Sized Images

    Divi AI is full of surprises. Instead of restricting you to 512×512 images, you get full control of the aspect ratios of your generated images. This helps you generate images that aren’t too small to use or the wrong size (like a portrait-oriented image for a background).

    To generate a custom-sized image, hover over the image box and click the Divi AI icon. Then, select Generate Image.

    Build a Homepage Divi AI

    Describe the image you want to create (also setting any image styles to use) and choose the aspect ratio of your image. Here’s our example.

    Build a Homepage Divi AI

    As you can see, we created an image that fits perfectly into our premade layout. It is 800px by 1200px and will work perfectly in its intended spot.

    Build a Homepage Divi AI

    Divi AI completely gets rid of creative mental blocks and puts all the generative power of AI at your fingertips. Traditional AI image generation sizes need not be a worry for you.

    7. Enrich Any Content with Relevant Keywords

    Adding keywords to your copy sometimes comes naturally, but sometimes it does not. When inspiration strikes, you just have to write it all down, no matter if what you are writing is perfectly optimized for SEO. That’s where Divi AI can come in and help you enrich previously written content with your ideal keywords.

    To do this, open up a Divi module with some text. Click the “AI” icon and then select “Improve With AI.”

    Divi AI for Rewriting with Keyword - Steps 1-2

    Choose your content type, a quick instruction for the keywords (not always necessary for simple rewriting), narrow the context to this single module and enter your keyword(s). After that, click “Generate Text” to see how Divi AI adds the keyword to your selected text.

    Divi AI for Rewriting with Keyword - Steps 3-7

    In our case, the content was nearly identical to what it was before—with the pleasant difference of our keyword being tactfully added.

    Divi AI for Rewriting with Keyword - Steps 8

    Adding keywords to content sections with Divi AI is one of the quickest ways to enrich your previously written content with the needed keywords. If you are using Divi AI to generate new content, adding the keywords up front makes sure all your written text is up to the task and ready to help you rank.

    8. Upscale Small or Pixelated Images

    Even though we’re in the Twenty-first century, it’s not uncommon to have images in our possession that are either tiny or ultra-low quality. It’s just a fact of life and makes what would be the “perfect photo” unusable. But AI is changing that.

    There are plenty of AI image enhancers on the market, but none are directly connected to your WordPress media library, like Divi AI. Plus, as we’ve seen, Divi AI has plenty of other AI tricks up its sleeve, making it a one-stop shop for creative web design.

    To upscale any image with Divi AI, open up any Divi module that supports an image or background image. Load your image into the image field, select the “AI” icon, and select “Upscale.”

    Divi AI Upscale Image - Steps 1-3

    And just like that, our example 150 by 150px image was upscaled into a 576 by 576px image that is much better suited to be used on our page.

    Divi AI Upscale Image - Steps 4

    Upscaling with Divi AI can make images 2 times or 4 times bigger than the original. This makes all those client photos a lot easier to work with. Best of all, you don’t even need a separate AI service for this. Divi AI, with one low cost, does this for you (and more) from directly in the page editor so you can stay on task, building websites.

    Bonus Tip: Give Advanced AI to All Team Members & Websites in Your Account

    Divi AI is one of the most generous AI services on the market. Not only is its AI output on par with the top services (for text and images), but your whole team can make use of its outstanding benefits.

    Most leading all-in-one AI platforms charge per user, making it hard to use across a team. Either a company needs to invest heavily in the software or leave it up to individuals. But people using their own AI tools could bring about inconsistent results and create an unequal work product from one team member to the next. Divi AI allows agencies and freelancers to give all their contractors and employees access to the best technology.

    Divi AI Beats Jasper and Writesonic on Cost Effectiveness

    How to Transform a Divi Layout Using Divi AI


    Subscribe To Our Youtube Channel

    Now it’s time to get into the fun stuff! Today we’re going to transform a premade Divi layout using Divi AI. First, we’ll need to select our layout.

    Add a Divi Layout to Your Page

    A great way to use the power of Divi AI is by transforming premade layout packs. Every week the designers here at Elegant Themes release custom-designed pre-made layout packs that are completely free to use. Layout packs are a great way to get started designing your website, and Divi AI can help you quickly customize the content so that it’s unique to you or your business. For more, here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to add a premade layout to your page.

    Divi Premade Layout

    For our purposes, we’ll be using the Coaching Layout Pack. To add a premade layout to your page, expand the Divi toolbar and click the purple + icon to load the Divi Library.

    Premade Divi Layout

    Type “coaching” into the search bar and select the Services page layout.

    Type coaching into search bar

    Select “Use This Layout” to load it to your page.

    Select use this layout

    Now that we have a premade layout added to our page let’s explore the ways you can transform it using Divi AI!

    How to Add Copy to Your Divi Layouts with Divi AI

    Divi premade layout packs come with placeholder content. Using Divi AI, you can add text modules and ask Divi AI to generate fresh copywriting based on the context of the content on the rest of your page. Since layout packs are each based on a specific theme, Divi AI will then generate unique copy based on that theme’s page content.

    How to Generate New Copy Automatically

    Let’s generate some short descriptions for the services section of this page. We’ll start with the One on One service.

    How to Generate New Copy Using Divi AI

    Access the module settings by hovering over the module and clicking the gear icon.

    Open module settings

    To auto-generate text, click the “Auto Generate Text With AI” blue button. Because this is a Blurb module, Divi AI will also automatically generate an image to go with it in case you decide to use an image instead of an icon.

    Click the button to auto-generate AI text

    Next, the AI-generated results will pop up. Since we’re editing a blurb module, Divi AI will generate a piece of content for each section in the blurb module. If you like the generated text, then click the blue “Use This Text” button. Or, you can choose to modify the text further by clicking the dropdown and selecting the action you want AI to take. You can also refine your result by writing further instructions in the Refine Result input field.

    Click the blue Use This Text button

    And here is the final result! Divi AI was able to automatically generate contextual content based on the rest of the page content. Pretty neat, right?!

    Final result

    How to Create New Copy Using the Divi AI Text Generator

    There’s also another way to generate copy with Divi AI: by providing prompts. Let’s try this method with the Couple Therapy blurb module.

    Open up the module settings and hover over the body text area. You’ll see an AI icon popup in the textarea box.

    AI Icon in textarea

    Next, click “Write With AI”.

    Tell Divi AI what type of content you want it to write: Paragraph, Title, Button, Blog Post, or Social Media Post. For our example, we’ll select Paragraph.

    Content type options

    What are you writing about?

    Here you can type in the topic you are writing about and what you want Divi AI to create content for.

    Content prompt

    Added Context

    Tell Divi AI what context (or no context) it should write in: This Page Content, This Section Content, This Module Content, No Context. By specifying what content you want Divi to reference, you’ll have more control over your contextual content. Let’s select “This Page Content.”

    Add contextTone of Voice

    Choose the tone of voice you want Divi AI to use. Options include, Creative, Informative or Funny.

    Tone of Voice

    Must Use Keywords

    For SEO purposes, here you can tell Divi AI what keywords you want to be included in the text.

    Must-use keywords

    Content Length

    Here you can tell Divi AI how long or short you want the content to be.

    Content length options

    Language

    By default, Divi AI will write content in the same language as the prompt it’s given. However, if you’d like Divi AI to write in another language, you can select one from the dropdown here.

    Divi AI language options

    Click “Generate Text”

    Once your settings are configured how you like, click the “Generate Text” button at the bottom to put Divi AI to work!

    Generate Text

    If you are happy with the generated text, you can click the “Use This Text” button to insert the text into the module. However, you can further customize the AI-generated text in the “Modify With AI” section. You shorten or length the text, check the spelling and grammar, rewrite it for experts or beginners, and so much more. You can also give more direction to the AI generator by typing in the “Refine Result” section and then clicking the “Regenerate” button.

    Use this text button

    In addition to all these options for customizing and refining the AI-generated text, you can go back to your initial prompt by clicking the white back arrow at the top left of the window that says “Content Results”. There, you can refine your settings and generate new text.

    Go back to results

    Once you generate another result, you’ll see an option to toggle between those results right underneath the AI-generated text. That way, you can compare and contrast your results and select the text you like the best and assemble it together for your own unique paragraph.

    Rewrite and Revise Copy

    Rewriting and revising copy with Divi AI is very similar. To do so, we’ll navigate to a text module that has existing content. Open up the module’s settings to edit the content.

    Rewrite and Revise Copy

    There are two ways you can access the AI options. First, by clicking the blue “Auto Generate Text With AI” blue button at the top, or second, by clicking the AI icon within the text editor.

    Auto Generate Text With AI

    If you’d like Divi AI to auto-generate revised text, then click the blue button. You can further customize the results in the Content Results window using the options and settings explained above.

    Adjust AI content settings

    To use the Improve With AI feature, copy the existing text, click the Divi AI icon, and then select “Improve With AI.”

    Improve With AI

    Paste the text into the editor, configure the style and settings you want to use, and then click “Generate Text.”

    Generate Text

    Generate Custom Images

    No more spending hours on stock image sites to find the perfect image for your design. With Divi AI, you can generate custom images unique to your website! Here’s how you can generate a custom image using Divi AI and the Image Module.

    First, open up the image module settings and hover over the image to see the AI icon. Click it to load the AI options: Generate With AI, Improve With AI, or choose from Quick Options like Generate & Replace, Reimagine, or Change Style. Let’s select “Generate With AI.”

    How to Generate Custom Images with Divi AI

    The first option is to select the style of image you want to generate.

    Select image style

    There are a variety of styles to choose from. You can create an image that is photographic, like a digital painting, concept art, a vector graphic, 3D renders, drawings, abstract art, comic book, watercolor, painting, anime, or cartoon.

    Image style options

    Next, write a descriptive prompt of the image you want to generate. You can even use AI to help generate a prompt by clicking the AI Icon in the text area.

    Write your prompt

    You can even upload a reference image to provide more context; however, this is optional. If you do use a reference photo, you can set the influence of the image by percentage. The less influence you assign the photo, the more influence your written prompt will have.

    Upload a reference photo

    If you don’t upload a reference photo, you’ll have the option to choose the aspect ratio of the generated image: Square, Landscape, Portrait, or Custom Size.

    Choose image aspect ratio

    You can even set the size (width and height) of the image.

    Choose image width and height

    Once the fields are filled out, click the “Generate Image” button and let the AI magic do its work!

    Generate Image Button

    On the next screen, you’ll see four generated images. If there is an image you like and want to use in your page design, click on the image and select “Use This Image.” You can also save the image to your media library by hovering over the image and clicking the downward arrow icon in the top right corner of the image. That way, you can save alternate image versions for future use!

    AI Generated Images

    If you’d like to continue refining your images, you can do so in several ways. First, you can select a generated image and ask AI to generate more images like that one.

    Generate more images

    In the Modify Selected Image area, you can even change the image type to another format, like a painting or vector image.

    Change image type

    If you want to refine your prompt, you can do so in the New Description area. Type in your new prompt and hit regenerate to generate new images.

    Regenerate

    Once you have the image you want, click the “Use This Image” button to insert the image into your content!

    Use This Image

    Pro Tip: How to Create New Images that Match the Style of Your Premade Layout

    If you like the current style and feel of your current layout, adding new images might throw off the entire design. With Divi AI, you can replace the existing images on your premade layout and keep the original style and feel of the original image.

    For example, here is a screenshot of our Bake Shop premade layout.

    Let’s say we wanted to use this layout to create a website for a coffee shop. We could replace these pretzel images with coffee-related images that have a similar style and color.

    To do this, simply select and use one of the existing images as a reference image. Then add a short description, like “cup of coffee,” and bring the reference image influence dial down to 20%. Then generate a new image.

    Repeat the process for the rest of the images on the page. Adjust the copy using AI as needed. And you have a new website with a similar style as the premade layout.

    Final Thoughts

    Divi AI is a powerful new tool for enhancing your efficiency and creativity while designing Divi websites. The best part is the more you use it, the better it gets to know your website and produces even more amazing results. Stay tuned for more Divi AI how-to’s this week, as we’re just getting started showing you how to harness the power of Divi AI!

    What is Divi AI?

    Divi AI

    Divi AI is a web-based design assistant built specifically for Divi. It can write, improve existing content, and generate images inside Divi’s Visual Builder. Since it’s packaged within Divi, it understands each Divi module, making generating text and images for your Divi website a breeze. With Divi AI, you’ll be empowered to write beautiful content and create gorgeous images like a professional.

    What Can Divi AI Do?

    The exciting thing about Divi AI is all of the features it encompasses. Unlike other AI software that typically provide one type of generative AI, Divi can do quite a few things.

    Auto-Generate Content

    Divi AI auto generate

    Divi’s powerful AI algorithm can generate text, images, or entire modules with just one click. It works by analyzing the existing content on your website, then making recommendations based on what’s already there. Divi AI learns from your website, allowing it to provide high-quality and relevant, on-brand results.

    Generate Images

    Divi AI text-to-image

    Another incredible aspect of Divi AI is its ability to generate beautiful AI images with one click. Based on Stable Diffusion, Divi’s text-to-image technology scans the content and images on your site and generates images based on it. That said, you can also create any image you like with a simple text prompt and a button click.

    Refine Existing Images

    AI improve image

    Divi AI also can enhance existing images on your sites. Simply supply a reference image and watch the magic unfold. You can vary the level of enhancement by specifying the weight of the original image, much like other text-to-image software, but it takes that incredible technology a step further. For example, you can completely change the image’s subject while retaining its composition, style, and coloring.

    AI-Suggested Content

    AI suggested content

    As writers, we know that writer’s block is a very real issue. Thanks to Divi AI, you’ll never have to worry about that. As previously mentioned, Divi AI analyzes your content, then makes suggestions to improve it. This ensures your content will be fresh, creative, and on-brand. With Divi AI, you can refine your content, expand it, shorten it, change the tone, and more.

    How To Use Divi AI to Improve Your Copy

    To demonstrate how powerful Divi AI is, we will show you all that Divi can do to improve your website’s copy. The process is simple, so building a new website or modifying an existing one is a snap.

    Step 1: Enable Visual Builder

    The best way to utilize Divi’s powerful AI features is through Divi’s no-code Visual Builder. This way, you can work on your page’s design in real time. To make things easier, we’re going to use the Horse Riding Layout Pack for Divi to improve copy with Divi AI. That said, you can follow along with your own content.

    Start by clicking the Enable Visual Builder button at the top middle of your screen.

    Enable Visual Builder

    If you’re new to Divi, we offer an extensive yet easy-to-follow tutorial that will get you up to speed with Divi’s Visual Builder.

    Step 2: Edit Existing Text Module

    With the Visual Builder active, scroll down to the text module in the hero section that contains lorem ipsum text. Hover over the module with your mouse until the settings appear.

    select text module

    Alternatively, you can right-click anywhere on the page to bring up the layers view by clicking go to layer. It easily allows you to select sections, rows, or modules to edit them.

    go to layer

    To edit a text module, click the grey settings icon while hovering over it.

    text module settings

    Step 3: Auto Generating Text with Divi AI

    With your text module active, you’ll notice a new button: Auto Generate Text with AI. Go ahead and click that to generate some new copy for your text module.

    auto generate text Divi AI

    Divi AI will generate new copy for the text module based on your layout. In our case, Divi recognized that our page is related to horses and correctly generated copy to support the layout:

    Divi AI text

    Once the copy is generated, you can choose to use the text by clicking the corresponding button in the Visual Builder.

    use this text

    Divi AI will replace the placeholder text with the newly generated copy.

    Step 4: Improving Copy with Divi AI

    With new text generated, you can take steps to improve it. With your text module still active, hover inside the text area and click the Divi AI Options icon to reveal the text options available.

    Divi AI options

    Next, click Improve with AI.

    Improve with AI

    A new dialog box will appear with a few settings to be aware of:

    5. Generate text: Press to improve the content in your text module.

    We’ll add the following settings:

    2. What are you writing about: Explain the Divi Equestrian Center
    3. Added context: This page content
    4. Tone of Voice: Informative

    7. Language: language of website

    With these settings in place, click the Generate Text button.

    Generate text

    Divi AI will work its magic and create a new paragraph based on those settings. Once text generation is complete, you can view both the original and newly generated text. If you are happy with the results, click the use this text button (1). However, if you want to run the prompt again, click the retry button (2). If you like the new copy but want to make improvements to it, click the improve with AI dropdown menu (3). This setting allows you to:

    • make it better
    • rephrase
    • lengthen
    • shorten
    • simplify
    • paraphrase
    • fix spelling and grammar
    • rewrite for experts or beginners
