How to create SEO content faster using Surfer SEO and Chat GPT: a step-by-step process
For example, we want to create an article about the process of SEO content creation.
Step 1: Identify primary keyword for the article
This keyword will be the main focus of your content and will help search engines understand what your article is about. You can use Ahrefs free keyword generator to find the right target keyword. Simply enter a topic related to your article, and the Ahrefs will provide you with a list of keyword suggestions.
We can type “create SEO content” in Ahrefs and receive keyword recommendations.

So, we can select “how to create SEO content” as the main target keyword for the article.
Step 2: Analyze search intent to make your content relevant and end search journey
Search intent reflects what the user is trying to achieve or find when they enter a specific keyword or phrase into a search engine. By analyzing search intent, you can gain valuable insights into the type of content users are seeking and align your content to match their expectations.
There are four common types of search intent:
- Navigational intent: Users search for specific pages or websites (e.g., “Facebook login,” “Amazon Prime video”).
- Informational intent: Users are looking for information about something (e.g., “what is keto,” “benefits of meditation”).
- Commercial intent: Users research before making a purchase (e.g., “top running shoes,” “iPhone X review”).
- Transactional intent: Users are ready to complete a specific action, like making a purchase (e.g., “buy concert tickets,” “book hotel in Paris”).
To identify search intent, you can utilize various tools and techniques. Here are some methods you can use:
Method 1: Start with Google Search
Begin by manually searching for the keyword on Google and examining the top-ranking results. Analyze the types of content that appear, such as product pages or informational articles. This initial research will give you insights into the intent behind the keyword.

Method 2: Ask Chat GPT
OpenAI’s GPT can help you analyze the intent behind a keyword by processing and understanding the language used in search queries. It can provide valuable insights into the user’s search intent, allowing you to align your content accordingly. You can use this prompt:
“What is the search intent behind a search query [insert keyword]?”

So, if we come back to our example, when users search for “how to create SEO content,” their intent is likely to obtain guidance and actionable steps. Your content should address this intent by providing comprehensive instructions, practical tips, and best practices.
Why is it important to end the search journey with your content?
Google strives to deliver the most relevant results to users. By effectively ending the search journey through comprehensive content, Google recognizes the quality of your content, leading to improved search engine rankings of your article.
Step 3: Create content in Chat GPT
Ask Chat GPT to generate your article. You can use the following prompt:
As an experienced SEO specialist and content writer, create an in-depth, SEO-optimized article based on the following aspects:
Topic: [Main topic]
Primary keyword: [Main keyword]
Target audience: [Describe target audience]
Requirements:
Research this topic, gathering accurate and up-to-date information.
Write an engaging and informative article that caters to the target audience’s needs and preferences.
Ensure the article is well-structured, with clear headings, subheadings, and bullet points for easy scanning.
Proofread and edit the article for clarity, grammar, and punctuation.
Provide an SEO-optimized title and meta description.

Final thoughts
