What this generator does, and what it doesn't
So you know what to expect before you rely on it.
✓What it does
- Plans the whole post: title, intro, H2 and H3 headings, points to cover, FAQ and conclusion, shaped by the post type you pick.
- Splits your word count across the sections, so you know how much to write where.
- Marks facts to check instead of making up numbers: each note tells you what to look up and cite.
- Lets you edit: rename, move or remove any section, and see the checks update.
- Exports cleanly as Markdown, plain text or a Word file, in 18 languages.
✕What it doesn't do
- Give statistics or quotes. AI often invents them, so the outline only says which facts to find.
- Look at what ranks on Google. It doesn't read search results. Check the top pages for your keyword yourself before writing.
- Show search volume. For which phrases people search, use the Keyword Research Tool.
- Write the post. It plans it. The Blog Post Generator can help with a first draft.
- Know your experience. Your own examples, photos and results are what make a post worth reading; add them to each section.

Outline cheat sheet
Rules that make a post easy to read and easy for Google to understand.
| Part | Aim for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| H1 title | One per post, with the main keyword | Tells readers and Google the topic |
| H2 headings | One every 200–400 words | Readers scan headings before they read |
| H3 headings | Only inside an H2, for steps or sub-points | Keeps the structure logical |
| Heading length | Under about 70 characters | Long headings are hard to scan |
| Introduction | 100–150 words, answer the main question early | Readers leave if they can't see the point |
| FAQ | 3–5 real questions people ask | Answers quick questions in one place |
| Facts and numbers | Each one linked to its source | Readers and Google trust checked facts |
How to plan a blog post with this tool
Describe the post
Write the topic and the angle in a sentence. Add a focus keyword and who it's for if you know them.
Pick the post type and length
The type decides the shape of the outline; the length decides how many sections and how many words each gets.
Edit the outline
Rename headings in your own words, move sections with the arrows, remove what doesn't fit and add what's missing. The checks update as you go.
Find the facts
Look up every "Check" note in a trusted source, and add your own examples, photos or results.
Copy it into your editor
Copy Markdown for WordPress or Notion, plain text for Google Docs, or download a Word file. Then write one section at a time.
Frequently asked questions
What should a blog outline include?
A title, a short plan for the introduction, H2 headings in a logical order, the points and any H3 subheadings under each H2, a FAQ if readers have common questions, and a conclusion with a next step. This tool also adds a word target for each section and notes on facts to look up.
Why doesn't the outline include statistics?
AI tools often make up numbers, studies and quotes that look real. Instead of risking that, the outline adds a Check note where a fact would help, telling you what to look up and where. Find it in a trusted source and link it.
How many H2 headings should a blog post have?
Roughly one H2 for every 200 to 400 words. A 1,500-word post usually has 5 to 7 H2 sections. Use H3 headings only inside an H2, for steps or parts of that section.
Can I edit the outline?
Yes. Rename any heading, move sections up or down, remove them, add new ones or swap the title. The word totals and checks update as you edit, and your recent outlines are kept in your browser.
How do I use the outline in WordPress or Google Docs?
Copy Markdown and paste it into the WordPress block editor or Notion; the headings become real H2 and H3 blocks. For Google Docs or email, copy plain text, or download a Word file.
Does the outline follow what ranks on Google?
No. It plans from your topic and post type but doesn't read search results. Before writing, search your keyword and check which questions the top pages answer, then adjust the outline.
Is my topic stored, and how often can I use it?
With the free shared AI, your topic goes to our server and then to Google Gemini or OpenRouter; identical requests are reused for one hour and nothing is saved to an account. The shared AI allows 15 outlines an hour per visitor. With your own free key, there's no limit from us and your topic goes straight from your browser to the AI provider.
