If your niche site is monetised with Raptive, they have a VERY nice AI content ideas generator built into the dashboard 🔥

Here's how to use it:
For this demo, I'll be using the classic topic I used for Cuppa.sh: "how deep can you scuba dive?"

Head to Content Optimization > Content Briefs and add your topic (you can also provide a URL to update an existing post 🤯) Image
When you click the button, it'll take a few minutes to build the brief for you. Maybe grab... a cuppa? ;)

There's also an option to hook it up to Google Search Console that will automagically give you content ideas every month! Image
Once the brief is complete, click it and you get lots of useful info about the topic you're writing about.

They give a few suggestions on how to start your article, or you can start it from scratch. There is also competitor analysis AND a breakdown of their article outline! ImageImage
They also give you questions to answer (which can be clustered) and you can search for statistics to use in your article, as well as commonly cited links! ImageImage
For the title, I generated ideas and I'm gonna riff on their suggestions to go with "How Deep Can You Scuba Dive (With and Without Equipment)".

Based on that, I generated a description and I'll go with the first one that looks good. Image
Next, I'll generate the outline. For this demo, let's stick with the defaults (but you can choose only the ones you want and organise them as you choose).

Now we click "Copy All to Clipboard" Image
At this point, you can add the copied brief to their content editor, or you can use an AI writer to take this title and brief and create your first draft from the outline.

You could also hook it up to something like @ArielleCPX's Bulk Publishing sheet to generate lots of posts!
I'm pretty sure the next step here is for them to integrate AI into the editor but this is a ready-made replacement for SurferSEO and it's available to Raptive publishers.

Anybody used this? How are the articles performing?

10 MCP BIZ IDEAS TO MAKE $10K+ MRR

everybody is covering "how" to build a paid MCP server.
but "what" do you build?

new devs and vibe coders DON'T bookmark this!

just pick one and take action:
1) "the mcp app store"

setting up an mcp server sucks!

what if you could just tell the agent what you want to do and it finds a verified server AND sets it up for you.

proof of concept:

2) "make this ui image a detailed prompt"

there are already $20k+ MRR saas products taking ui screenshots and turning them into prompts for cursor. this just cuts out the middleman.

users can quickly spin up their pages and save tokens by turning images into prompts that work!

I got sick of the "AI loop of death" where the agent spirals, breaks stuff, and can't fix it!

So I built a 4-rule task manager for Cursor + Windsurf that:

- Creates a plan
- Breaks it into tasks
- Ships one focused task at a time
- is 10x more efficient

Here's the full system:
Rule 1: plans.⁠md

Tag the rule (or just ask the agent) with context about what you're trying to build:

"create a plan for [detailed project context]. use laravel for the backend with postgres database and vue.js and inertia for the frontend"

you now have a full PRD...
Rule 2: tasks.⁠md

- tag your PRD and the rule
- tag any files/rules you need as extra context
- any doc urls you need, add them

When all your context is there, ask the agent to create your tasks for this project. that's it.

Your tasks will just get created one at a time.

Vibe coders and new developers coding with AI should be building MCP servers ASAP

An entire market is wide open and completely untapped right now. The opportunity is massive.

Here's the simple 3-step playbook to get in on the goldrush:
1) Find a painkiller problem to solve

It could be looking up/formatting data, scraping URLs, finding UI components, or connecting apps in useful ways

If you find a solution that fixes a painful problem, you can sell it

Example: Magic MCP by @serafimcloud makes £400+ MRR
2) Create a remote MCP with @Cloudflare

Cloudflare are ALL IN on MCPs. One-click deploy to get started with or without auth is a game changer and removes the pain of running an MCP locally for users

@rickyrobinett built one in minutes to order pizza

First off, programmatic SEO is still mostly just SEO

- Focused title tag and description
- User-friendly H1
- Good internal links
- No SEO slop
- XML sitemaps for all pages
- Build or buy backlinks

I built a directory of custom Cursor modes to help you take your Cursor agent to the next level

(including my content writer mode that A LOT of people were interested in)

check the thread below for links + examples and submit your own to get credit and a backlink ;) Image
TLDR: I published 8 custom modes with instructions and settings. Keep reading the thread for specific examples...

One of the best ways to scale a digital product is STILL with programmatic SEO.

Pieter Levels took Photo AI to 46K+ traffic a month.

Here's how he did it: ⤵ Image
Might as well address the elephant in the room.

When you have 400K+ followers on 𝕏 and you launch a product, it gets more attention.

Attention gets links and, despite Google claiming otherwise, links DO MATTER.

But you can still do this without being a celebrity...
Photo AI, like a lot of software products, has a bunch of categories.

If you think like a user, this is where the money is!

These are LANDING PAGES. Not just categories to filter/search.

Treat each of them like the user is visiting for the first time.

Let's look at one ⤵ Image
