Creating How-To Guides & Checklists

How-To Guide and Checklist wizards create practical, actionable content that users can immediately apply. Both generate SEO-optimized content with structured data for rich snippets in search results.

The How-To Guide Wizard creates step-by-step instructional content in 6 steps: Topic → Products → References → Title → Steps → Content. Perfect for tutorials, setup guides, and processes.

1. Define the task or skill to teach
2. Specify difficulty level (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
3. Set estimated time to complete
4. List prerequisites and required materials
5. Generate step outline (2 credits)
6. Generate full content with images (6 credits)

The AI generates 5-10 clear, sequential steps with action-oriented titles. Each step includes what to do, why it matters, and tips for success.

Full content generation includes: Introduction explaining the value, detailed instructions for each step with screenshots or diagrams, troubleshooting tips and warnings, and a conclusion with next steps.

• Step-by-step instructions with images
• Warning callouts for common mistakes

• Time estimates per step
