This guide is designed to familiarize new and potential subscribers with KoalaWriter's YouTube video to Blog Post article type and its different inputs.
Now, let's walk through how to turn YouTube videos into blog posts using KoalaWriter.
Before choosing the article type you want to create, you must choose the model you want KoalaWriter to use.
Of course, you want to select the YouTube Video to Blog Post article type.
Please provide the URL of the YouTube video that you would like converted into a blog post.
Note: Make sure that the video is public and has captions available. Otherwise, we will not be able to proceed.
If enabled, we will make sure that the AI rewrites all of the captions from the provided video to eliminate plagiarism.
You can disable this if the YouTube video is yours or if you are okay with some of the captions being used verbatim.
If you've already indexed your sites, simply select the domain you want the article to be internally linked to.
If you have not yet indexed your site, please follow our How to enable internal linking in KoalaWriter guide.
Currently, you can choose from eight tones of voice for your article. Choose any of these, and KoalaWriter will create the article using that tone of voice.
The tone of voice you choose should depend on your niche and brand voice.
KoalaWriter can write articles in the language you select. For instance, if you want an article written in German, select German from the dropdown menu.
Depending on your niche, you might want KoalaWriter to create articles from different points of view. For instance, if you want it to write from an expert author's perspective, you could choose First Person Singular. If you want it to highlight things from the reader's perspective, you could choose Second Person.
You can choose from the following:
First Person Singular
First Person Plural
Second Person
Third Person
If you enable the Outline Editor, an outline will first be created before your article is written. You can re-order, delete, and add new sections to the outline before generating the article.
You can also add background information, custom prompts, and more for each individual section, giving you full control over the article!
For a more detailed guide, please go to our Outline Editor docs.
If enabled, the article will have shorter sentences and simpler language to target an 8th grade reading level.
Note: Works best with GPT-4o.
All options under this are optional, but entering detailed inputs properly can significantly improve the output.
This is an optional input. If you'd like to provide additional instructions for the title, put them here.
Example: "Choose a short, creative title."
Like the extra title prompt, this is also optional.
Here, you can input additional instructions that will be applied individually to all sections of your article. You cannot give instructions such as "write 1,200 words" because it will be applied to each section individually, not the whole article.
Example: "Keep paragraphs short and concise."
Additional instructions that will be applied to the introduction.
If you want to create your blog post with the least amount of time and effort, you could provide the target keyword, leave everything on default, and click "Create Article." You can publish the output as-is; after all, KoalaWriter is a one-click AI writer.
However, if you want to get the absolute best results, we recommend spending a little more time tweaking your inputs before creating the article.
