If your site sells products through WooCommerce, this chapter shows you how to turn your product catalog into helpful buying guides and product-focused blog articles that help shoppers choose – and buy.
Overview
This entire chapter only applies if WooCommerce is installed and active on your site – if you don’t sell products, you can safely skip it. When WooCommerce is detected, a new WooCommerce submenu appears under AI Blog Generator, letting you turn your product categories (like “Office Chairs” or “Garden Tools”) and individual products into real customer-focused content, such as “How to Choose the Right Office Chair” or a spotlight article on a specific product.
How It Works
WooCommerce content works alongside your regular keyword queue, but with its own separate settings and AI prompts made specifically for products. You choose whether to build topics from product categories, individual products, or both, then click Sync to add matching topics into your keyword queue. When those topics are written, the plugin automatically includes real product names, descriptions, prices, and attributes as context, so the resulting article genuinely reflects what you sell – not generic filler text.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Open the WooCommerce screen
Go to AI Blog Generator → WooCommerce. This screen only appears if WooCommerce is active on your site.
2. Turn on product-based blog generation
Tick Enable product-based blog generation at the top of the page.
3. Choose which product categories to include
Under Product categories, tick the categories you want to generate content for. Leave all boxes checked to include your entire catalog.
4. Choose your default queue source
Set Default queue source to build topics from Categories (one buying guide per category), Products (one article per individual product), or both.
5. Set products per prompt and blog category
Set Products per prompt to control how many products the AI considers when writing a category guide, and choose a WordPress blog category to file these posts under (or leave it to use your default Settings category).
6. Choose a Featured image mode
Pick whether generated posts should use the product’s own photo from WooCommerce, or an AI-generated image based on the product or the article plan.
7. Customize WooCommerce AI Prompts (optional)
Scroll to WooCommerce AI Prompts and Product Multi-Step Prompts to adjust the system prompt, image prompt template, and individual writing steps used specifically for product content – separate from your main blog prompts in Article Length & Writing Style.
8. Save your WooCommerce settings
Click Save WooCommerce Settings at the bottom of the form.
9. Sync products into your keyword queue
In the Product Queue panel further down, choose Create queue from (categories/products), set how many Keywords to create, and click Sync to Keyword Queue. New product and category topics will now appear in your regular Keywords screen, ready to be written just like any other keyword.

Field Explanations
A category buying guide is written using several representative products from that category as examples, helping shoppers compare options and pick the right one for their needs – this is the classic “buying guide” style article.
A product-focused article instead reviews or highlights a single product in detail, using its real name, description, and attributes pulled straight from your WooCommerce catalog.
Syncing never duplicates existing topics – the plugin automatically skips any product or category that already has a matching keyword in your queue, so it’s safe to click Sync as often as you like.
Tips
- Start by syncing from Categories – broad buying guides tend to attract more search traffic than single-product reviews.
- Turn on Auto-sync queue so new products and categories are picked up automatically before each daily run.
- Use the product’s own photo as the featured image when your product photography is already good quality – it’s faster and free.
- Review a few synced articles manually at first to make sure product data (like prices) reads naturally in context.
Common Mistakes
- Forgetting to click Sync to Keyword Queue. Turning on product-based generation alone does not add any topics – you must sync at least once.
- Leaving all product categories unchecked. If none are selected, the sync will have nothing to pull from.
- Expecting this menu to appear without WooCommerce installed. The WooCommerce submenu is hidden entirely until WooCommerce is active on your site.
- Setting Products per prompt too high. Including too many products in one prompt can dilute the article’s focus – 8–15 is usually a good range.
