Quickstart

From signing in to your first published article — the six-step path, and exactly where the free and paid plans diverge.

This is the shortest path from a new account to an article on your blog. It takes about fifteen minutes of your attention, spread across a couple of waits.

Read the free vs. paid section before you start. The automatic content plan — the part that makes Seopotion feel automatic — is a paid feature, and knowing that up front saves you looking for a button that is not there.

1. Sign in

Seopotion uses Google sign-in only. Select Join with Google and pick the Google account you want to own the workspace. There is no email-and-password option and no separate sign-up step: the first sign-in creates your account.

You may occasionally be asked to sign in again. Signing back in returns you exactly where you were.

2. Scan your website

The first onboarding step is Website Scan. Enter your business website URL and select Scan website.

The scan reads your site and pre-fills the rest of onboarding — your business description, your audience, your blog details — so you are correcting a draft instead of filling in a blank form. Leave the page open while it runs; you will see Scanning website content. This can take a moment. and then Scan complete. Generated setup details have been added to the next steps.

Everything the scan produces is editable, both now and later from Settings. If something is wrong, fix it here — the whole content strategy is built from these answers.

3. Review your business profile

The scan drops you into five review steps. None of them is long, and all of them are editable afterwards.

  1. About Your Business — business name, content language, country, and a business description. Language and country matter more than they look: they set the language your articles are written in and the search market they target.
  2. Target Audience And Competitors — who you are writing for, and competitor website URLs. Competitors feed keyword research directly.
  3. Blog Info — your sitemap URL, your blog page URL, and up to three of your best existing posts.
  4. Article Settings — article style, how many internal links to include, whether to add a table of contents, and whether to embed YouTube videos.
  5. Integrations — which publishing integration you plan to use, and how you heard about us. You can skip connecting WordPress here and do it later from Settings.

Select Get Started on the last step. You will see You're ready to start.

4. Where free and paid diverge

This is the fork.

On a paid plan (Growth or Expert-led Growth), finishing setup immediately queues a 30-day content plan. Keyword research runs against your business profile and competitors, and the highest-opportunity keywords are spread across the next 30 days — one article per day. Open Content planner and you will see Your 30-day content plan is in progress; the page says to expect this to take a few minutes and refreshes itself when the plan lands.

On the free plan, no content plan is created. You get the full workspace, the calendar, and your business profile, but:

  • Keyword research is unavailable — the Research Keywords button is marked Paid feature.
  • Keyword scheduling is unavailable — the + Choose keyword button on each empty calendar date is disabled, and opening it shows Keyword scheduling is a paid feature.
  • Because nothing gets scheduled, nothing gets generated. The calendar stays empty.

To move forward, open Billing and pick a plan:

PlanWhat it unlocks
FreeWorkspace, business profile, article settings, WordPress connection, Search Console
GrowthEverything above, plus keyword research, keyword scheduling, and your content calendar
Expert-led GrowthEverything in Growth, plus hands-on expert support for your content strategy

Both paid tiers unlock the same product features today; Expert-led Growth adds people, not buttons.

5. Watch the first articles arrive

Articles are generated on the date they are scheduled for, not all at once — that is what the calendar is for. So the plan appears in full immediately, and the articles fill in day by day.

In Content planner, each calendar day shows its keyword with volume and difficulty, and a badge that tracks it: Planned while it waits, then Generated once the article exists. Selecting a day opens the article editor, where you can revise the title, slug, body, meta title, meta description and featured image before it goes anywhere.

If a day's generation fails, its keyword is marked Failed in the Target Keywords table. Nothing is lost — the keyword stays in your pool and can be scheduled onto another date.

You do not have to wait for the plan to finish before doing anything else. Steps 2, 3 and 6 are all useful while it runs.

6. Connect WordPress and publish

Publishing is a separate, deliberate step — nothing is pushed to your site automatically.

  1. Follow Publish to WordPress to install the plugin and connect it. It takes about five minutes and you only do it once.
  2. Open Content history and select an article.
  3. Select Send to WordPress.

Whether the post arrives as a draft or goes live is decided by the Post Mode setting inside the WordPress plugin, so you stay in control of what appears on your site.
