Affiliate Blog Builder

Write full SEO-optimized blog articles that rank on Google and drive passive affiliate revenue. Supports four formats: product review, head-to-head comparison, best-of listicle, and how-to guide. Each article includes keyword strategy, structured headings, comparison tables, CTAs, FAQ schema, and FTC-compliant disclosure.

Stage

S3: Blog — The highest-value content type in the affiliate funnel. Blog articles rank on Google, drive organic traffic for months/years, and convert at higher rates than social posts because readers have high purchase intent.

When to Use

User wants to write a blog post reviewing an affiliate product
User wants a comparison article (Product A vs Product B)
User wants a "best of" listicle for a product category
User wants a how-to tutorial that naturally promotes an affiliate product
User has a product from S1 (affiliate-program-search) and wants to create long-form content
User says anything like "write a blog", "SEO article", "product review post", "roundup post"

Input Schema

product:                    # REQUIRED — the affiliate product to feature
  name: string              # Product name (e.g., "HeyGen")
  description: string       # What it does
  reward_value: string      # Commission (e.g., "30% recurring")
  url: string               # Affiliate link URL
  reward_type: string       # "recurring" | "one-time" | "tiered"
  cookie_days: number       # Cookie duration
  tags: string[]            # e.g., ["ai", "video", "saas"]

format: string              # OPTIONAL — "review" | "comparison" | "listicle" | "how-to"
                            # Default: "listicle" (highest traffic potential)

compare_with: object[]      # OPTIONAL — competitors for comparison/listicle formats
  - name: string            # Competitor name
    description: string     # Brief description
    url: string             # URL (non-affiliate OK)
    pricing: string         # Starting price

target_keyword: string      # OPTIONAL — primary SEO keyword to target
                            # Default: auto-generated from product name + category

blog_platform: string       # OPTIONAL — "wordpress" | "ghost" | "hugo" | "astro" | "webflow" | "markdown"
                            # Default: "markdown" (universal)

tone: string                # OPTIONAL — "professional" | "conversational" | "technical"
                            # Default: "conversational"

word_count_target: number   # OPTIONAL — override default word count for the format

Chaining from S1: If affiliate-program-search was run earlier in the conversation, automatically pick up recommended_program from its output as the product input. The field mapping:

recommended_program.name → product.name
recommended_program.description → product.description
recommended_program.reward_value → product.reward_value
recommended_program.url → product.url
recommended_program.reward_type → product.reward_type
recommended_program.cookie_days → product.cookie_days
recommended_program.tags → product.tags

If the user says "now write a blog about it" after running S1 — use the recommended program. No need to ask again.

Workflow

Step 1: Determine Format

Choose the article format based on user request or defaults:

Signal	Format
User says "review", "my experience with"	`review`
User mentions two+ products, "vs", "compare"	`comparison`
User says "best", "top", "roundup", numbers	`listicle`
User says "how to", "tutorial", "guide", "step by step"	`how-to`
No clear signal	`listicle` (default — highest traffic potential)

If format = comparison and compare_with is empty or has only 1 product:

Use web_search to find 2-3 top competitors in the same category
Search query: "best alternatives to [product.name]" OR "[product.name] vs" site:g2.com OR site:capterra.com

If format = listicle and compare_with is empty:

Use web_search to find 4-6 products in the same category
Search query: "best [product category] tools [year]"

Step 2: SEO Framework

Read references/seo-checklist.md for the complete SEO guidelines. Then:

Generate target keyword (if not provided):
- Review format: [product name] review
- Comparison: [product A] vs [product B]
- Listicle: best [category] tools
- How-to: how to [goal] with [product/category]
Generate secondary keywords (3-5):
- Use web_search for: "[target keyword]" related searches and "People Also Ask"
- Include: [product] pricing, [product] alternatives, [product] pros and cons, is [product] worth it
Build title using the formula from seo-checklist.md matching the format
Write meta description (150-160 chars) following the checklist format
Plan heading structure:
- Map out all H2/H3 headings before writing
- Ensure target keyword appears in at least 2 H2s
- Ensure secondary keywords appear in H3s
- Follow the heading hierarchy from seo-checklist.md
Generate slug from target keyword (lowercase, hyphens, no stop words)

Step 3: Write Article

Read references/blog-templates.md and use the template matching the chosen format. Then write the full article following these rules:

Content Rules:

Follow the exact template structure for the chosen format
Write in the specified tone (default: conversational)
Hit the word count target for the format (review: 2-3.5K, comparison: 2.5-3.5K, listicle: 3-5K, how-to: 2-3K)
Use short paragraphs (2-4 sentences max)
Include bullet points and numbered lists for scannability
Write like a real person who has used the product — specific details, not generic fluff

Required Sections (all formats):

FTC disclosure near the top — read shared/references/ftc-compliance.md and use the medium format
Comparison table (at least one, even in reviews — compare to alternatives)
Pros and cons for every recommended product
"Who is this best for?" audience targeting
Pricing information with affiliate CTA
FAQ section (3-5 questions)
Final verdict with clear recommendation and affiliate CTA

Affiliate CTA Placement (2-4 per article):

After the pricing section
After a key feature demonstration
In the final verdict
Optionally: in a callout box after the "who is this for" section

CTA Formats:

Soft: [Try [Product] free →]([affiliate_url])
Medium: **Ready to get started?** [Sign up for [Product] →]([affiliate_url])
Strong (verdict only): **Our recommendation**: [Get [Product] here]([affiliate_url]) — [brief value prop].

Things to AVOID:

No Affitor branding in the article body (this is the user's blog, not ours)
No "AI-generated" disclaimers (the user will edit and personalize)
No placeholder text like "[insert your experience here]" — write complete content. If personal experience is needed, write realistic example scenarios clearly marked as examples
No keyword stuffing — natural language only
No false claims about products

Step 4: Format Output

Produce the final output in this exact structure:

Part 1: SEO Metadata Block

---
SEO METADATA
---
Title: [SEO title]
Slug: [url-slug]
Meta Description: [150-160 chars]
Target Keyword: [primary keyword]

...

Products Featured:

---

Step 5: Self-Validation

Before presenting output, verify:

Word count meets format target (review: 2-3.5K, comparison: 2.5-3.5K, listicle: 3-5K, how-to: 2-3K)
FTC disclosure near top of article, medium format
2-4 CTAs placed at: after pricing, feature demo, verdict, optional callout box
Meta description is 150-160 characters
Target keyword appears naturally in first 100 words
No placeholder text, no AI-generated disclaimers

If any check fails, fix the output before delivering. Do not flag the checklist to the user — just ensure the output passes.

    reward_value: string          # Commission info

Output Format

Present the output as a single markdown document with three clearly separated sections:

SEO Metadata — fenced block with all SEO settings for easy copy into WordPress/Yoast
Article — the full blog post in markdown, ready to paste
Supplementary — FAQ for schema markup, image suggestions, products list, and next steps

The article should be immediately publishable — not a draft or outline. The user should be able to copy-paste it into their blog editor, add their own screenshots and personal touches, and publish.

Error Handling

No product provided: "I need a product to write about. Run /affiliate-program-search first to find one, or tell me the product name and I'll research it."
Comparison with only 1 product: Auto-search for 2-3 competitors using web_search. Search: "best alternatives to [product]" on G2/Capterra.
**No compare_with for listicle
