Categories: Business Automation, Content Creation, SEO, AI
This advanced workflow automates every step of content publishing for agencies, from managing multiple clients and creating SEO-optimized blog content to AI-powered image generation and publishing directly to Elementor-powered WordPress sites. It's a game-changer for scaling your content operations and freeing up your team for strategic work.
Benefits
- Complete Automation - An end-to-end solution that handles content generation, image creation, scheduling, and publishing.
- Elementor-Ready Content - Creates posts that inherit your client's theme styling and responsiveness, eliminating manual design work.
- Centralized Management - Organizes clients, content ideas, and publishing history in a simple Google Sheets system.
- Intelligent AI Creation - Uses Google Gemini to produce high-quality, SEO-optimized content with customizable tone and strict guidelines.
- Flexible Publishing - Offers both on-demand and scheduled triggers to fit any content strategy.
How It Works
- Flexible Triggers: The workflow can be initiated in two ways:
- Manual Trigger: Fill out a simple n8n form with client details, keywords, and content guidelines for an on-demand post.
- Automated Trigger: The workflow checks a Google Sheet hourly and automatically publishes any scheduled posts.
- Centralized Management: A three-sheet Google Sheets system acts as your core database for:
- Clients: Stores client information and WordPress app credentials.
- Blog Ideas/Schedule: Your content calendar where you plan and track upcoming posts.
- History: A log of every successfully published post.
- Intelligent AI Content Generation: An AI Agent with a customizable prompt leverages Google Gemini to:
- Analyze competitor URLs to create more comprehensive content.
- Adhere to strict SEO and formatting guidelines.
- Generate a unique featured image based on the article's keywords.
- Elementor Conversion: A custom JavaScript function parses the AI's HTML output and converts it into a native Elementor JSON format. This is the core magic that ensures the post is perfectly structured and responsive.
- Seamless WordPress Integration: The workflow uses a WordPress node to send the post's title and the Elementor JSON data to the client's site, publishing a new blog post that looks as if it was manually created with the Elementor editor.
Requirements
- n8n Instance: A self-hosted or cloud instance of n8n.
- Google Account: A Google account for managing your client and content sheets.
- Google Gemini API Key: A valid API key for content generation.
- WordPress App Passwords: App passwords for each of your clients' WordPress sites.
How to Use

- Connect your accounts: Authenticate your Google Sheets, Google Gemini, and n8n accounts within your n8n instance.
- Run the workflow: Add your blog post ideas to the
