"The title promises a ranking reveal, and the video delivers that, but it's padded with rambling and setup steps."

AI Summary

The creator revisits an old auto-blogged WordPress website, Coffee Somnium, which he had forgotten about, and discovers it ranks on Google despite its poor design and content. He analyzes the site's performance, shares insights on keyword research and SEO fundamentals, and discusses the potential of auto-blogging AI tools.

[00:03]
Video premise

The creator intended to make an SEO-friendly WordPress website tutorial but got sidetracked by checking an old forgotten site, Coffee Somnium, on Ahrefs.

[00:33]
Site creation context

The site was built using auto-blogging AI, indexed on Google, and then abandoned. It was part of a 34-minute AI SEO course for beginners.

[01:01]
Site's poor quality

The website looks terrible with odd menu items like 'Opt out preferences' and 'Is hunting legal in Nebraska'. It lacks a favicon and has messy content.

[02:35]
SEO fundamentals matter

Despite the poor site, proper initial setup (like connecting a real photo to LinkedIn) helps ranking, even if it seems pointless at the start.

[03:04]
Surprising ranking results

The site has 72 keywords and 11 traffic, with 99% of traffic from one article: 'How much is a large iced coffee at McDonald's', ranking 10th in the US.

[03:44]
Keyword research value

The success shows that good keyword research can find 'diamonds in the rough'—low-competition keywords that drive traffic.

[04:29]
Auto-blogging AI pricing

AutoBlogging AI costs $49/month for 60 articles, $99 for 150, or $399 for 720 articles. The creator felt guilty about promoting it but notes the company refunded an accidental payment.

[05:01]
Plans to retry

The creator wants to try auto-blogging again with a better niche, perfect keyword research, and proper Search Console setup, learning from past mistakes.

[05:27]
Search Console setup

The creator sets up Search Console using Rank Math or Yoast, showing the process live, though data isn't instant.

The video demonstrates that even a poorly designed auto-blogged site can rank if SEO fundamentals and keyword research are done right. The creator plans to replicate this success with a more strategic approach.

[00:03] to make today the video I was going to make today was going to be about how to make an SEO friendly WordPress website in under 10 minutes when I went to onto hosting and to buy a domain I completely heard I had

[00:17] completely forgotten about coffee somnium and just out of Interest I put it onto ahres to see if it was ranking now for context the way that I made this art this entire website was in this video right here it's a 34 Minute video

[00:33] full AI SEO course from scratch for beginners and basically what I did was I used auto blocking I made a website I used auto blogging and then I released it to the wild I I got it indexed on Google

[00:48] etc etc and then I forgot about the website because I started to work on different projects and I just left this website so let's have a little look at Coffee somnium okay the mess that is coffee somnium

[01:01] so first of all the website looks terrible in the header we have opt out preferences as the first option followed by privacy disclaimer followed by is hunting legal in Nebraska followed by website terms and conditions of use

[01:14] about us which I don't I think that's yeah okay I did leave hours page properly privacy Pages hunting license costs in the United States which is wild

[01:26] costs in the United States which is wild there's no way this is ranking right surprisingly doesn't rank on this coffee website um but I mean there's some really weird stuff on here but basically what I did

[01:41] was I just used auto blogging and I used ahrefs to get all the keywords and then I just wrote some articles and just completely forgot about it um if we actually go on the third page here there's something that is really

[01:54] weird which is articles that I just have I don't know articles that I just have I don't know what this is I didn't write this 2020 so this article was apparently written before

[02:07] I created the website so I I really don't know what's going on here these might be like hosting at articles that they post or something I'm not really sure what's going on here but yeah we'll we'll ignore that I didn't even know

[02:20] this video but basically what I wanted to talk about is how as long as you put everything kind of in decent order okay and you can see that in this video right here full AI SEO course from scratch I

[02:35] showed you how to set up the website I showed you how to do everything such as important this is a real picture of me which is connected to my LinkedIn all that kind of stuff will actually help you rank even though it seems kind of

[02:51] pointless at the beginning okay as long as you do everything properly at the beginning then it really apparently doesn't matter what your website looks like or what you've got on there because and I'm not

[03:04] saying this is crazy or anything but having 72 keywords 11 traffic on a website that is terrible basically let's just all agree it's a really really bad website um it's pretty crazy it doesn't even

[03:17] um you know we have some pretty interesting keywords 10th in the United States for how much is a large iced coffee at McDonald's that's crazy so actually most oh God yeah 99 of this

[03:32] traffic is actually from the same article which is just how much is an i McDonald's iced coffee so that's really really interesting to me so this

[03:44] shows that if you do good keyword research you can find some absolute Diamonds in the Rough so how much is a large iced coffee at McDonald's let's see where we are

[03:59] McDonald's daily Dart okay apparently we're not here coffee something I just find that so funny doesn't even have a favic on like come on how are

[04:15] they ranking this so this was made by Auto blogging AI interestingly enough um and when I released that video I kind of felt guilty because it felt like I was encouraging people to spend I mean what is quite a lot of money at

[04:29] look so we're doing monthly it's 49 and you so we're doing monthly it's 49 and you get 60 articles or 99 150 articles or you can pay 399 to get 720 which is pretty much enough for an entire website

[04:44] I might try this again now that I've learned a lot from what I'm doing how I'm doing everything etc etc I made a lot of mistakes in the first run and I'm you know I've got a little bit of money to play with for projects like this and

[05:01] I want to be able to make good videos with working methods so if you are interested in me doing this again maybe with a different Niche maybe something even more Niche uh using Auto blogging let me know in the

[05:15] comments as well so I actually don't think I have search console set up here so I think what I'm going to quickly do is I'm going to set up search console and we're gonna have a little look

[05:27] so if you don't know the easiest way so um search consoles using rank math or yoast I guess I don't really know I'm not really a WordPress expert to be of the first WordPress websites that I've made the first one I made was

[05:42] income stream Surfer um and then I made the crypto file and then I made coffee somnium and then I made tiny home hub so let's just run through this together real quick so we can see how to do it

[05:58] console I'm about to activate free plan yes that's fine I like free plans we'll go with Advanced why not

[06:14] bothered about this stuff honestly so I actually don't follow this guide I just search console obviously I already have Google analytics I'm so curious as to

[06:26] how this is going so

[06:38] a new ga4 property yes install analytics code yes and save and continue saving continue so yeah I wouldn't have even submitted these to search console I don't think

[06:54] so now when I refresh search console coffee somnium should be here oh it doesn't give you instant data I thought it collected the data oh well

[07:06] I'll have an update on this in the future but I I think I might try auto blogging again I did do a couple of things wrong with auto blogging the first time I had a lot of repeat keywords so it took me probably like two

[07:18] and delete everything but yeah I mean if this kind of content ranks um there's no reason to not use it so yeah Fair plays also blogging AI I do also want to say that they um I I

[07:32] basically accidentally paid for another month of Auto blogging Ai and I emailed sorry I didn't mean to pay for that would you be able to send me the money back and to be fair to them they sent me the money back you know without any

[07:45] the money back you know without any problems whatsoever so in terms of being able to rank and being a decent company seems like they've got so just let me know if you want me to see

[07:58] just let me know if you want me to see if you want me to give this another try we'll give it another go we'll see what happens and I have a feeling that I can make a real big success of this this time because I'm going to choose the

[08:11] perfect Niche I'm going to do perfect keyword research I'm going to do a perfect content generation submit everything to search console after putting them in categories and then I'm just going to forget about the website

[08:25] again and I think that will work very very well thank you for watching guys I hope you enjoyed this video and I will see you very very soon with some more content peace out
