The Writing screen

Edition: free and Pro. This is in the free Zinn® SEO; the parts the guide marks Pro need a Pro licence. Its AI runs on Zinn® credits, or on your own AI key.

Everything for writing pages that rank: post ideas and drafts, headlines people click, keyword lists, spelling and tone, content-tool guidelines, affiliate links and links between your sites.

  1. Open Writing — In WordPress, open SEO in the menu, then Writing under Content and writing in the plugin's side menu. Everything for writing pages that rank: post ideas and drafts, headlines people click, keyword lists, spelling and tone, content-tool guidelines, affiliate links and links between your sites.
  2. The Writer tab — Open the Writer tab. Get post ideas that fit your site and turn one into a draft or a full article from a brief. Everything arrives as a draft you review.
  3. The Planner tab — Open the Planner tab. Keep post ideas in a plan with a date and the search each one targets, and have drafts written for as many as you choose.
  4. The Headlines tab — Open the Headlines tab. Paste any title to score how likely people are to click it, see what to change and pick a rewrite.
  5. The Keyword lists tab — Open the Keyword lists tab. Keep the phrases you want to rank for in labelled lists, give each post its lists, and send a list to rank tracking in one click.
  6. The Spelling and tone tab — Open the Spelling and tone tab. Check spelling, grammar and tone before you publish, with a LanguageTool server or your own AI key.
  7. The Writing tools tab — Open the Writing tools tab. Bring the terms, length and headings your Surfer, Clearscope, MarketMuse, Frase or Semrush report asks for into the editor, and check a draft for copied passages.
  8. The Affiliate links tab — Open the Affiliate links tab. Turn long affiliate links into short /go/ addresses marked as sponsored, see which posts use each one and count clicks.
  9. The Between your sites tab — Open the Between your sites tab. Add your other websites and get suggestions of their pages each post could link to.
