Creating Recipes in ContentGen.io

What are recipes in ContentGen.io?

Recipes in ContentGen.io allow you to set rules that determine which pages are included when generating content. By filtering your site pages, recipes make it easier to apply prompts strategically, focusing on those that meet specific SEO or content criteria while excluding low-priority ones. They also save time by letting you reuse rules across different prompts, helping you keep content generation consistent and aligned with your site’s priorities.

How to Create a Recipe

  1. Go to the Pages section in your workspace and click 'Add Rule' to start building a new recipe.
  2. Choose the conditions you want to apply. For example:
  3. Ranking keywords – e.g. pages with more than 1 ranking keyword.
  4. Listings – e.g. pages with at least 1 listing but fewer than 30 listings.
  5. Other page-level filters depending on your data setup.
  6. Adjust the values for each condition as needed.
  7. Save your recipe and give it a clear name (e.g. “Pages with 2+ keywords & <30 listings”).

Your recipe will now appear in the Recipes list for easy reuse.

Using Recipes

When generating content, you can select one or more recipes to quickly filter the pages you want to work with. Recipes can be combined with prompts to define both what type of content is generated and where it will appear, giving you precise control over your output. You can also create as many recipes as you need for different strategies, whether that’s targeting new category pages, improving underperforming pages, or supporting seasonal campaigns.

Managing Recipes

Recipes can be edited, renamed, or deleted at any time, and updates will immediately apply to any future content generation sessions.
