FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did we create a free outline generator?

Surfer wants to help you write clear, concise, and fully-optimized content! For most content marketers, the first step in the writing process is finding relevant information, researching, and creating a blog post outline to organize their ideas. Let's be honest though: high-quality content takes time, and that's why we've created tools to optimize the process for you! Your brainstorming, research, and writing processes just got 100 times easier.

The article outline generator is free for you to use, but you're missing out on a lot more if you don't subscribe to Surfer!

How do I use the content outline generator?

It's easy!

First things first: what's your article about? If you know what you want to write about, open Surfer's Content Editor tool.

You'll see "Content Score" on the right-hand side of the screen. Right next to where it says "Guidelines" you'll see "Brief." Click there to get your blog post outline started! In this section, is where the content magic happens. This AI tool is what we use to generate ideas for your outline. You'll see a list of headers—H1, H2, H3 and H4— and if you click for more details you'll see that there are AI-generated paragraphs full of all the keywords you care about which you can then add to your articles.

The AI develops relevant copy that you can easily add to your text, hopefully making your job as a content writer less tedious!

3 Tips to make the most of the article outline generator:

It can seem like an impossible task to open the content editor and see 35 headers for optimal range, right? What happens when you hit a wall and have no idea what to write about next, let alone which headers to include?

At the very bottom of the "Brief" section, you'll find "Topics and Questions" which can help generate more ideas to keep your writing flowing. Whenever you fill in the Content Editor, you provide the keywords, location, and general idea of what you're writing about, then let the AI write. It'll take it from there!

The best part is that you can write articles about a variety of topics regardless of whether you're an expert! "Brief" makes the idea to writing stage even shorter, but for those moments when you need a push, don't forget to check out the "competitors" section. You'll get an idea as to how your competitors tackle similar topics.

 What is the benefit of a free article outline generator?

Creating an article outline is a way to organize your ideas into a concise and organized way. 

Not only will having a clear structure to your article benefit the reader, it will also benefit the crawlers which read your article. Using an outline generator saves you and your team time and energy. To be able to do this for free is great for your budget as well!
