How to set up and manage keyword pipelines

What is a keyword optimization pipeline?

A keyword optimization pipeline is a structured, prioritized sequence of keywords organized from low to high difficulty. Instead of targeting all keywords at once, WriteText.ai works through them in order, starting with easier-to-rank terms and advancing to more competitive ones over time, based on time intervals or ranking milestones you set.

When you run AI-powered keyword analysis on a product, WriteText.ai builds a pipeline for it automatically. Each pipeline tracks keyword performance, triggers content updates based on time intervals or ranking milestones, and keeps your product descriptions and meta tags evolving without manual intervention. You can learn more about how this works in the keyword optimization guide.

Can I add my own keywords?

Yes, you can add your own keywords. To do this, manually enter seed keywords in the keyword analysis section before starting AI-powered keyword analysis. These keywords will help guide the AI during analysis.

Manual input also lets you bring in keywords from outside the AI-generated suggestions. This is useful when you're working with branded terms, niche product-specific phrases, or keywords sourced from an external tool. Any keyword you add manually works the same way as one selected from the suggestions list, it enters the pipeline and gets used during generation.

Can I create a custom keyword pipeline?

Yes. You can build a custom keyword pipeline by dragging and dropping keywords into your preferred order, or by manually entering keywords you want to target. Both options are available directly in the keyword analysis section.

To set up your own pipeline:

  1. Run keyword analysis on a product to generate AI-powered keyword suggestions.
  2. Drag and drop keywords from the keyword pool into your pipeline.
  3. Rearrange keywords within the pipeline by dragging them into your preferred order.
  4. To add a keyword that didn't appear in the suggestions, type it directly into the pipeline input field and confirm.

Once your pipeline is ready, generate your content. WriteText.ai will incorporate your selected keywords into the output.

Can I configure the maximum number of automation pipelines?

Yes. You can set the maximum number of active automation pipelines directly from the WriteText.ai settings page. The maximum automation pipelines setting controls how many of these processes can run simultaneously across your store.

To configure your pipeline limit:

  1. Open the WriteText.ai plugin/extension/app in your store's backend and go to Settings.
  2. Locate the automation pipelines field.
  3. Enter your preferred maximum number.
  4. Save your changes.

Your new limit takes effect the next time automation runs.

If the number you enter exceeds what your plan allows, WriteText.ai will notify you of the maximum permitted and adjust the value automatically. You don't need to look up your plan's limits in advance, the app corrects it for you and makes the ceiling clear.
