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!

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.
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!
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.
Good Morning Kyle!!
I love these weekly updates that you give us so that we can stay in the loop. This week I am so HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY for this weeks update info.
The one thing that I would love is to be able to create templates that I can say to the content creator "Hey, create content about this, using this template." I create 5 different kinds of posts weekly, and it would be the most helpful if I could make templates for each of those different posts and then have my content created around those posts.
It would not only save me time, but it would also help with the consistency of formatting within my site. And then I would be able to focus more on growing my social media presence and not have to worry so much about the finer details for my posts as they would already be taken care of from my template.

Hi Kyle
Your template ideas are great! 👍
I mostly use my own custom-designed GPTS for various online publishing tasks.
I would love to have the option to send the WA AI-generated output directly to a post or page in my WordPress Block Editor, UNpublished!
I think this would be especially useful for those who are doing bulk writing because they can edit and publish them at their convenience.
Have a great weekend! 🥳

My requests of article styles:
1. How to
- output tables, bullet lists (with schema?)
- more rich formatting
- e.g. how to properly pour a beer
2. Listicle
- output a '# Best X for Y' style post
- e.g. 3 best beer bottle openers for a small bar
3. Single Product Review
- output a 'product name review'
- e.g. 'ZWILLING Beer bottle opener review'
4. Local places roundup
- similar to a listicle
- output a '# best X in City'
- e.g. "3 best micro breweries in Victoria BC"
Thanks, Kyle, for letting us know about the latest updates.
I've got a few points or suggestions to improve the efficiency of posting new content.
1) Free, high-quality images readily available to us within the AI editor. Many of the images available to us aren't of great quality at the moment.
2) Integration of Youtube videos in the AI editor. To upload YouTube videos, I need to publish the page or post first, login to my WordPress user account, and manually upload YouTube content by copying and pasting the YouTube video URL into my published page or post within WordPress. It would be a lot more convenient to upload YouTube videos directly here within Wealthy Affiliate's AI editor.
3) Direct and automatic suggestions from the AI-editor to change or modify, if needed, the name or title of the draft page or draft post to increase SEO efficiency and SEO ranking.
4) How about the AI editor adding something automatically that encourages the readers to leave a comment, purchase a product, or sign up for newsletters, emails, calls for action, etc.?
5) According to Jay (magistudios), he's found a pattern for high-ranking quality content on Google. Google apparently likes and favors published articles with long titles or names, but subheadings with very short titles or names, say 1-3 words. Google apparently also likes images and/or YouTube videos added to every subheading within the published article or post. It would be great if the AI editor would have these automatic features. That would speed up the content creation as well.
Have a wonderful weekend, Kyle!

Thanks for letting us know what is going on behind the scenes as always Kyle!
Just one sip of beer though!!
Apart from somehow converting our usual posts to be useable instantly for Social Media (if possible)... no requests from me!!
But... I did notice something different earlier when I created a couple of posts which I have never seen before!!
The second post actually provided the URL of the previous one within the content as a link which I have never seen before!!
Maybe I missed an update about this before... but it's a pretty cool feature in my book!!
Have a wonderful weekend buddy!!
👍🎃🍻
Hi Kyle,
Thank you for the update.
A couple of points if I may? I tend to find that when I request a longer post and request a greater number of words/sections that there are too many repetitions. Yes I can take these out however it defeats the purpose of requesting and paying for a longer article.
How about at the end of the article something that then encourages the reader to leave a comment of their own? A call to action.
I am sure one day AI will be pulling in affiliate opportunities to embed within the article also?
Have a great weekend,
Wayne
Yeah, definitely. There is a certain level of unpredictability, in particular if you are asking for long form content that may not have adequate content to suffice a good long form piece of content. Perhaps in this situation, you are asking for content that may be better off being shorter form unless you feed it a bunch of additional ideas within the "optional content" area.
So that is a bit of a dilemma, and short of providing "filler content" in some circumstances, it might be just best to let it do it's thing. This is something that we are definitely considering in the structured approach as we work to leverage particular templates and have the content reflect those.
And yes, you can already leave a call to action, affiliate links, and anything you want within the end of the content by declaring that within optional content area.
You could say, "include a call to action in the final paragraph of the content to encourage the reader to leave a comment" and it will. The designer will understand this, and the AI Author when it is written. :)
"Incorporate the following affiliate link naturally within the conclusion of the article: Affiliate Link here."
Within that, you could also ask for how you would like it incorporated as well, soft promo, hard promo, they way in which is was promoted, etc. Let me know if you have any further questions. :)

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
