Creating blog posts that capture attention and keep readers engaged can be challenging in today’s saturated digital landscape. Crafting compelling headlines and eye-catching thumbnails are essential for attracting clicks, while a distinct writer’s voice and valuable information are crucial for maintaining reader interest. Leveraging AI technology can significantly enhance these elements, yet many writers either remain skeptical of AI or struggle to use it effectively. Drawing from my years of experience with writing and AI tools, I’ve discovered several ways to integrate AI into the blogging process to boost views and engagement. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how you can use AI to elevate your blog posts.

1. Use AI as a Cheap Research Assistant

Experienced writers know that besides their own ideas, they need to include information to clarify concepts, back up ideas, and provide examples. Researching on the internet can be time-consuming, but AI tools like ChatGPT or Jasper can serve as efficient research assistants at a low cost.

For instance, I asked ChatGPT to generate a 500-word article on “5 ways AI can boost your writing skills.” Although the generated text was formal and a bit boring, it served as a great starting point, sparking new ideas for my article.
