Shakvaro Content Engine (SCE) is a workflow engine for SEO-driven content production. It combines:
<ul>
<li>Guided 8-step workflow — define a project, pick keywords + locations, choose a template, configure shortcodes, write AI prompts, set SEO rules, configure publishing, launch.</li>
<li>Bring-your-own LLM — works with any OpenAI-compatible chat endpoint. Switch between OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Groq, OpenRouter, or a self-hosted gateway.</li>
<li>Bulk meta description regeneration — pick a category or filter, regenerate hundreds of Yoast / RankMath meta descriptions in a single batch.</li>
<li>404 tracker — log 404s and queue the worthwhile ones into the content pipeline.</li>
<li>Template system — Block Editor / Gutenberg templates with dynamic shortcodes that map to AI-generated sections.</li>
<li>Yoast / Rank Math integration — writes generated meta descriptions to whichever SEO plugin you run.</li>
<li>Queue + cron — long-running generation handled in background with retry, rate-limit, and progress UI.</li>
<li>Activity log — every API call, validation pass, and publish event recorded for audit and debugging.</li>
</ul>
SCE is built for agencies, SEO teams, and content operations that need to produce dozens-to-hundreds of optimized posts on a recurring schedule without burning hours on each one.
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>AI provider abstraction with strict OpenAI-compatible contract</li>
<li>Dashboard overview with queue stats, error counts, recent activity, Resume Workflow CTA</li>
<li>Shakvaro keepalive cron (for hosted-tier deployments that use refresh tokens)</li>
<li>Workflow JSON state with breadcrumb navigation across all 8 steps</li>
<li>Settings page with per-provider configuration + diagnostic Test Connection</li>
<li>CSV keyword/location bulk import</li>
<li>WP-CLI compatible (<code>wp cron event run shakcoen_process_queue</code>)</li>
<li>GPLv2-licensed; secrets stored encrypted via <code>SHAKCOEN_Secrets</code></li>
</ul>
<h3>Free vs Pro</h3>
Everything above ships in the free plugin and works standalone — no account, no key, no locked buttons. Shakvaro Content Engine Pro is a separate paid add-on (distributed off WordPress.org) that turns the engine into a hands-off SEO suite. Pro adds:
<ul>
<li>Automation — auto-process queue cron, 404 AI validator with auto-queue, scheduled auto-image for drafts</li>
<li>AI images — multi-provider generation (DALL·E 3, Imagen, Replicate SDXL), smart alt text, near-duplicate rejection, media offload to Cloudflare R2 / S3</li>
<li>Internal linking suite — automatic anchor engine, bulk re-link, broken-link scanner, anchor-diversity warnings, per-post stats</li>
<li>RSS auto-blog — multi-feed import with per-feed AI prompts, AI-rewrite or direct publish, deduplication</li>
<li>SEO automation — JSON-LD schema (Article / FAQ / Breadcrumb), content-decay detection + auto-refresh, crawl hygiene (noindex thin/paginated/empty archives), pillar consolidation with 301 redirects</li>
<li>Content intelligence — Originality.ai AI-detection + plagiarism gate, DataForSEO keyword volume / difficulty / CPC</li>
<li>Multi-template routing (auto by category / post type), REST API (headless), activity-log CSV export, dashboard widget, failure notice with one-click retry, and priority support</li>
</ul>

<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin connects to several external services so that AI-generated content, URL validation, and article enrichment can happen. Every service is opt-in via configuration. No data is sent until you configure a provider and trigger a generation.
OpenAI (api.openai.com) — only used when you configure an OpenAI API key in Settings → AI Provider. It sends the prompt you author (typically including target keyword and template instructions), generation parameters, and your API key in the <code>Authorization</code> header. It is sent on: every queued post generation, every Test AI Prompt click, and every meta-description regen. 
Terms of use: https://openai.com/policies/row-terms-of-use/ 
Privacy policy: https://openai.com/policies/row-privacy-policy/
Google Gemini (generativelanguage.googleapis.com) — only used when you configure a Gemini API key in Settings → AI Provider. It sends the prompt, generation parameters, and your API key in the request URL. Same trigger points as OpenAI. 
Terms of use: https://ai.google.dev/terms 
Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Wikipedia REST (en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1) — used by the optional <code>[olink: PHRASE]</code> shortcode inside generated content to resolve a phrase to its Wikipedia article URL. It sends the literal phrase (URL-encoded) as part of the request path. Up to 3 lookups per article. Responses are cached for 30 days. Triggered only when generated content contains an <code>[olink: ...]</code> shortcode.

Shakvaro WP Insights (track.shakvaro.cloud) — optional, privacy-first usage analytics. Off by default — nothing is sent unless you explicitly opt in via the in-admin notice or Settings → Data Sharing. When enabled, it sends, on activation and once weekly: anonymized environment data (WordPress / PHP / MySQL versions, locale, multisite flag), the plugin version, which plugin features are turned on, aggregate usage counts (e.g. how many posts have been generated, 404s tracked, templates created — numbers only, never your content, titles, keywords, prompts, or API keys), and a one-way SHA-256 hash of your site URL plus the site title. Your admin email is sent only if you separately opt in to the marketing tier. Opting out or uninstalling sends a one-time erasure request and removes the local data. This service is operated by the plugin author.

Shakvaro Content Engine

AI content automation for WordPress. Bring your own LLM key to generate posts at scale, rewrite meta descriptions, and turn 404s into content.

One Blog a Day is end-to-end content automation for WordPress — it replaces the work of a full content team (strategist, researcher, writer, editor, SEO specialist, image designer, publisher) and runs the entire content pipeline from inside your WordPress dashboard. Set it up once, and expert-level blog posts get researched, written, optimized, and published on your schedule. No prompting. No editing. No babysitting.
Every blog post goes through a 28-step pipeline powered by 15+ specialized agents. The result is 1,500+ word posts with real depth, proper structure, and SEO best practices — not the thin, repetitive filler you get from generic writing tools.
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install the plugin and create a free account</li>
<li>Our Business Analyst reads your website and extracts your business details — you review and confirm</li>
<li>Keywords are discovered automatically based on your business, industry, and competitors</li>
<li>Generate blog posts manually, or turn on Autopilot and let your content team run itself</li>
<li>Publish to WordPress with one click — categories, SEO meta, featured images, and structured data are handled automatically</li>
</ol>
That is the entire setup. Most users are generating their first blog post within 5 minutes.
<h4>Your Content Team</h4>
Keyword Strategist — Discovers high-impact topics your competitors are ranking for. Analyzes your industry, existing content, and audience segments to find gaps worth filling. Connects to Google Search Console for data-driven recommendations.
Senior Writer — Crafts 1,500+ word blog posts with genuine expertise and depth. Every post is tailored to your brand voice, products, and audience. Posts include proper structure: introduction with a hook, logical sections, expert insights, and a strong conclusion.
SEO Specialist — Optimizes every heading, meta title, meta description, and internal structure. Generates FAQ schema (JSON-LD) for rich snippets in search results. Builds content optimized for both traditional search and AI-powered search engines (GEO).
Image Designer — Creates a custom featured image for every post. Images are compressed to WebP format for fast page loads and uploaded directly to your media library.
Editor & Publisher — Reviews the final draft for quality, then publishes to your WordPress site with the correct category, SEO plugin meta (Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework), featured image, alt text, and structured data — all automatic.
<h4>Autopilot Mode</h4>
Autopilot is what makes this true content automation — different from every other AI writing plugin. Instead of clicking buttons or writing prompts, you set a schedule and walk away.
Assist mode — Blog posts are generated and held for your review. You approve or reject each one before it goes live. Full editorial control with zero writing effort.
Full mode — Keywords are discovered, blog posts are written, optimized, and published on the days and times you choose. Your blog grows while you focus on running your business.
You pick the days (Monday, Wednesday, Friday — or any combination), the time, and the timezone. The system handles the rest.
<h4>Built for Every Kind of Business</h4>
One Blog a Day works for any business type:
<ul>
<li>Home services — plumbers, electricians, HVAC, landscapers, cleaners</li>
<li>Local businesses — restaurants, dental offices, law firms, real estate agents</li>
<li>E-commerce — online stores, DTC brands, product companies</li>
<li>SaaS companies — B2B software, developer tools, platforms</li>
<li>Agencies — marketing agencies, design studios, consulting firms</li>
<li>Creators — coaches, course creators, freelancers, bloggers</li>
</ul>
Each business type gets tailored keyword strategies, audience segments, and content angles. A plumber in Tampa gets different keywords and writing tone than a SaaS company in San Francisco.
<h4>Works With Your Existing Setup</h4>
SEO plugins — Fully compatible with Yoast SEO, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress, and The SEO Framework. When you publish a blog post, the plugin automatically sets the SEO title, meta description, and focus keyword in whichever SEO plugin you use. If you do not have an SEO plugin, we inject BlogPosting, Person, and BreadcrumbList structured data (JSON-LD) for you.
WordPress themes — Works with any WordPress theme. Blog posts are published as standard WordPress posts, so they inherit your theme’s styling, layout, and typography.
Author profiles (E-E-A-T) — Set up your author profile during onboarding (name, title, bio, credentials, photo, LinkedIn). Every published post gets an author byline and Person schema — the signals Google looks for when evaluating content expertise and trustworthiness.
<h4>Plans & Pricing</h4>
Free — 2 expert blog posts per month. Full 28-step pipeline on every post. No watered-down “free” version — you get the same quality as paid plans, just fewer posts. No time limit.
Starter ($29/mo) — 10 blog posts per month. Autopilot Assist mode. Keyword discovery.
Growth ($79/mo) — 30 blog posts per month. Full Autopilot mode. Google Search Console integration. Content refresh. Social media post generation. A $10,000/month content team for $79.
Scale ($149/mo) — 50 blog posts per month. Everything in Growth plus priority processing and up to 5 connected sites.
This plugin requires an active OneBlogADay account. <a href="https://oneblogaday.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Create one for free</a> during setup — it takes 30 seconds.
<h4>Third-Party Services</h4>
This plugin connects to two external services to provide its functionality. Both are listed here so you can review what is sent and when.
1. OneBlogADay API (<code>https://api.oneblogaday.com</code>) — required for core functionality.
The following data is sent to our servers:
<ul>
<li>During one-click setup (when you click “Set up my content team”): Your site URL, admin email address, site title, site tagline, existing post titles (so we don’t repeat topics), WordPress version, PHP version, and any active SEO plugins.</li>
<li>During blog generation: Keywords and topic data, plus your tenant’s business context, to generate blog content.</li>
<li>During publishing: Blog status is confirmed back to our servers so we can track usage limits and re-try failed publishes.</li>
<li>During keyword discovery: Your business context is used to discover relevant keywords.</li>
</ul>
No data is collected without your explicit action (installing the plugin, clicking buttons, or enabling Autopilot).
<ul>
<li><a href="https://oneblogaday.com/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a></li>
<li><a href="https://oneblogaday.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
2. Google Fonts (<code>https://fonts.googleapis.com</code> and <code>https://fonts.gstatic.com</code>) — used to load the plugin’s typography (Source Sans 3 and Source Serif 4) inside the WordPress admin only. The fonts are enqueued via <code>wp_enqueue_style()</code> so your browser fetches them directly from Google when you visit a OneBlogADay admin page. No personally identifying data is sent — just standard browser headers (User-Agent, IP, Referer) that any web request includes.
<ul>
<li><a href="https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Fonts FAQ</a></li>
<li><a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
If you prefer to avoid loading external fonts, you can install a “Disable Google Fonts” plugin alongside this one — the dashboard will fall back to system fonts gracefully.
