Beer With Kyle: Advancing Your Content Creation Environment
Hey Everyone,
Today, I’m excited to discuss some advancements we’re making on the content front at Wealthy Affiliate, specifically focusing on structuring content creation for greater diversity and efficiency.
But first things first—this is Beer with Kyle Fridays, so let’s get into this week’s choice.
This Week’s Beer: Slackwater Brewing Dos Mas Cerveza
Today, I’m enjoying a Dos Mas Cerveza from Slackwater Brewing in Penticton, BC. This beer has a unique twist with lime and pink sea salt—at 3.8% ABV, it’s light and refreshing, much like a Corona but with an extra hint of sea salt and lime. It’s in my Wealthy Affiliate glass from Las Vegas, a reminder of our upcoming Super Affiliate Conference (and that we want you to get there next year).
Content Creation Platform Enhancements
1. Structured Content Options
Our current Article Designer, powered by AI, allows users to create blog posts and website content with high efficiency. It lets you choose your content length, add custom details, and get a ready-to-go piece. However, we realize that not every piece of content is structured the same way, and many of you are creating varied types of articles—how-to guides, listicles, reviews, and more.
So, we’re developing a more structured content environment that gives you control over the layout and format of each article. This means you’ll be able to shape your content in the exact way you need, helping you create polished, customized pieces without as much post-editing.
2. Templates Integration with AI
Currently, our templates feature in Site Content lets you lay out specific document types. However, they aren’t yet linked to our AI content generation. We’re working on integrating this, so you can create AI-powered content directly from customizable templates. Imagine starting with a ready-made template tailored for reviews, how-tos, or research pieces—all generated in a way that fits your style and purpose.
3. Image Integration with Generative AI
A big request has been image integration with generative AI, and we’re in the later stages of development on this as well. Soon, you’ll be able to incorporate AI-generated images into your articles seamlessly. Our goal is to roll out these updates by early to mid-December, assuming all goes according to plan. We know visuals play an essential role in creating engaging content, and we’re committed to adding this capability to further enhance your content pieces.
Your Feedback
As we keep advancing, your feedback is invaluable. I’d love to know:
- What types of content you create most frequently (especially outside of website content)?
- Which parts of your current editing process are taking the most time?
- Any additional tools or templates you’d like to see for faster, high-quality content creation.
Jump into the comments and share your insights, they are crucial to how we improve our platform, community, and resources at Wealthy Affiliate. We’re committed to evolving, and your input helps us prioritize updates that matter most. Thanks as always for your feedback!

Hey Kyle, Great stuff ahead as usual..
one thing that I am interested in is the way that you make your vlogs. You have the video and then you have the written part of what is said in the content.
The written content's structure is based on what you said in the video.
It would be great if:
Scenario one: AI could listen to the video and create the content in a written format while feeling if the content required titled sections or numbered titled such as step 1.. step 2.. etc.
if that is too much for the currently available technology then we move to;
Scenario Two: where we feed AI with the transcription and it does what I described above.
Other types of content are as follows:
1) Social media posts: AI would capture the shared blog post and create an FB post with the link, LinkedIn post..etc. Of course each platform has a language and keyword specific structure where AI takes that into consideration and even adds hashtags where appropriate such is the case of X and LinkedIn.
2) Medium, Quora.. Reddit.. etc. type of articles that are also a capture of a blog post but rewritten for such platforms.
3) I use ChatGPT before WA AI because I can make it ready and check the outcome and then ask it for more amendments before I am satisfied with the outcome. With WA AI, I cannot do that. The moment I press "Next" the words are already deducted from my word balance, and I want to go back to make changes, the process is not that easy.
The above is a wishlist. I don't expect WA to offer everything. We will always use other resources for our content creation process. But, if WA saw the business reason and found that it is capable and it is feasible to provide the whole environment, then Hurraaay to WA.
I hope the above is helpful..
Excellent feedback Rami, and all things we want to capture as we move forward.
The personalization of content and stylistic tone is something that we are also working on, but that comes with a lot of complexity as well when you are training a language model as it often times will still sound like canned AI content if not done correctly.
Also, "after the fact" editing is something that we are consider, we really want to nail the first run of the article first, and offer a lot more flexibility on the structure and the styles of the content.
Following Jay's training, I use my Jaxxy-optimized headline text of the post in a search to find the top 3 matching articles, culling out text to create an outline in ChatGPT. Then, I add this outline to Hubs content details to create the Hubs outline.
I count the number of sections needed to then create the post.
Using Grammarly, I check the post for grammar,etc. After all of this and the article is posted online, I then go thru to make my text changes and highlighting paragraphs and important text.
Images and links are added last. Al of the above takes 3-4 hours or longer if the sections go beyond 9.
Can any of the above be incorporated?

We could potentially "scrape" content, but it is unlikely we want to head there. as this is something that can be done using GPT to summarize ideas, and you have greater control that way.
What we can do is allow you to create more structure within your content, if you have a specific length of content or design, we can help you recreate that with more efficiency. We are also considering inclusion of images to all of this, as we will have generative AI images built right into the platform.
So we are going to continue to evolve this so it takes you less and less time to create high quality, high ranking and converting content. Content of all types though, not just for SE. :)
Lots of evolution on the content creation side of WA coming before year end, and right through the 2025. We are going to keep you ahead of the curve. ;)
Hi Kyle,
In addition to the above mentioned, I also have a few to attach that would be of great use to me.
1. I would like a product comparison template for a better informed decision.
2. A template for scripts (for example for audio or meditation/therapy sessions with particular purpose). In general, I create them personally, but it would be very helpful to have integrated templates.
3. Checklist and Guides templates
4. A template for Case Studies.
5. I don't know if it is possible to integrate the option to transform the created content into PDF. I always do this in Word.
6. Interview/ Q&A template
PS: Before all that, a grammar checker similar to Grammarly. If for 80% of the members English is native, for the rest of us it is a foreign language. As writing is not the same as speaking, I think that reintroducing this option would be of great help to many of us.
AI has grammar mistakes, so I have to edit the content in Grammarly.
Thank you!
I love what you have however being able to create some images would be terrific!
I'd also like it to 'learn me' which I think is the independent AI that someone mentioned below. I go into settings on ChatGPT and let it know what I like and how I can benefit from being kept on-track etc. I like this function.
Since Jay taught me to give awesome prompts the ChatGPT experience has been way better... can that be part of WA?
WOW you guys are really on to it!
Yeah, images will be a really nice integration to have and save lots of time, and that is why we are really focusing on advancing that side of the platform here.
The learn me function within ChatGPT could be easily integrated, but the "learn me" element has to be done carefully when you are creating content as it can really impact the output and it can start including that information within every post. So there is a fine line on training the model properly, and the model really showing too much "presence" in your end point content.
We definitely do want to allow for more control with tone and tone and style, while maintaining the highest level quality of content.
Great to hear about the advancement with your skill set on the GPT side of things, we are really going to be ramping up the training within the AI side of training and I myself have LOTS of really cool stuff to share within that world that I will be discussing in the year ahead. :)
Good news on the ai additions.
1) Please allow us the choice of a featured image in content creation. A few of the ai software models out there (commercial ai) do not allow you to create a featured image for WordPress. It amazes me they would even create an ai software image without this option.
2) Incorporate Unsplash, Pixabay (etc) with attribution in article template as featured images.
3) Could you setup the ai review template to use the product url to write the review post. Please set it up so the price is not included in the template results. A few ai companies already do url reviews but they drag in the pricing also.
4) Have you ever considered offering email marketing at WealthyAffiliate? Email marketing with your new Ai would be amazing. Sending an ai review of a product using just a url in an email would be unbelievable.
5) Do you have plans to offer this ai as an independent product eventually? Would be great to sell this as an affiliate. I have been doing really well as an affiliate for Ai Software companies.
Thanks again for the hard work,

Thanks for the info, Kyle. I write mostly about retirement/un-retirement, mindset, & travel options in unique destinations. The most time is taken on providing relevant content and then finding appropriate images. The on-page SEO doesn't take that long when I write the content appropriately in terms of keyword placement.
Have a great weekend.
Best,
Joseph
Thanks for your feedback Joseph, we are going to be able to help you speed up this process with the generative AI integration function (which is coming before the end of this year).
We are also going to be able to help you with particular structure and design that you want in your article, so anticipate that coming soon as well. ;)
I am creating recipes for Spanish foods from different Latin countries, and what kinds of food experiences people have when they travel to these Latin countries. I am also writing about Latin food restaurants and the Latin food truck vending industry. I would like to see more information on this.
More structure for things like recipes? As for the actual content itself, you can always advance the content with a bit of your own research and by providing any content that you want to make sure is incorporated into the article. You can do this directly through the optional content area of the AI Article Designer.
Hi Kyle!
1. What types of content do you create most frequently (especially outside of website content)?
- Content for my websites.
2. Which parts of your current editing process are taking the most time?
- The AI content is good, but I spend time personalizing and humanizing it. As you mentioned, imagery can be time-consuming if we use AI to create the right imagery to complement our content.
3. Any additional tools or templates you’d like to see for faster, high-quality content creation.
- I am going to use a politician line since we here in the US are approaching election day: "nothing comes to mind." LOLOL
I will have to say that the current content creation system, even though it requires editing, is still amazing compared to where we were just a few years back.
For example, this past week, I created drafts and outlines for nineteen articles to post to my main website. It took no time at all to do that. Now, I can edit each one and post daily if I desire. Very Cool!
Keep up the great work, Kyle, Carson, and the WA team!
Thanks for your feedback here Howard and glad to hear you are liking the current content platform. The content is good, but we want to help you with the overall structure as all articles are not the same, and require different formatting (depending on the style of article). Because of this we are wanted to advance some of the structure side stuff.
Thanks for your feedback. We are also wanting to focus on more personalization and customization, we just have to nail that because when you add "style" training that is too specific, often times from our experience it will jeopardize the quality of the content and revert all the nuances of AI that we aim to avoid back into the content.
So it is a bit of a cat and mouse game on the training side of things, but we are definitely getting there. The structure element really excites us as it is going to lead to a lot of optionality for you as the content creator...and IMAGES definitely are coming with this next release.
As always, looking forward to what you all add to this great platform for creating great online businesses!
Hi Sir,
I have been busy and so tired today.
so i can't spend a long time with laptop.
i thought my WA membership is over.
When I get an invitation email to check one video at WA.
I was thinking, How will it be possible?
it is so surprising that i get extended bonus membership.
i was holding my head with an open mouth.
THANK YOU, to all Wealthy Affiliate team, for this GREAT PRESENT.
I will do my best to get benefit from this.
About this particular video, I need to watch over and over again because the discussion is so advanced ahead; I am still very, very beginning, just a couple first pages.
I will write a comment when I am ready.
Yes, there is no "end" date to a Starter membership, you can hang around within the Starter environment for as long as you want Indra. When you are ready to upgrade and advance your business, there are premium level options available to you. :)
Thank You So Much,
I am so happy and appreciate it.
In my Traditional Culture Mathematics, my best day is Friday. If there is an Indonesian member here, they will know it as a 'WETON JAWA.". but it is only important for Java culture, so there is no need for any explanation about this.

Hi Kyle:
The three main points of your discussion in this vlog will simplify the way we do business here.
in terms of the current editing process, I like to add a short introduction and conclusion to my articles. As such, I read through and edit the AI-generated content and pull information for the introduction, write a subheading for the first part of the content below the introduction, and then write the conclusion at the end. That's my preferred style instead of having one long content section at the beginning.
I don't have additional suggestions for now.
Veron
Thanks for sharing your process with us. Appreciate it, and we want to incorporate tools that will really help you streamline (and in some cases) removed the activities that you are needing to do now. ;)
