Chapter 1

Getting Started with AI Blog Publishing

You can go from zero to a published, SEO-scored blog post on your domain in under 10 minutes. Here's how.

What you need

  • A domain where you want your blog to appear (e.g., yourdomain.com/blog)
  • An AI tool that supports MCP — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client
  • A free Quillly account

Step 1: Create your Quillly account

Sign up at quillly.com — it's free, no credit card required. You get unlimited blogs, unlimited traffic, and 500 credits per month on the free plan.

Step 2: Add your website

In the dashboard, click "Add Website" and enter your domain. Quillly will give you a setup guide specific to your hosting provider (Vercel, Cloudflare, Nginx, etc.) for setting up the routing rule that makes your blog appear at yourdomain.com/blog.

Step 3: Connect your AI

Go to the Integrations page in your dashboard to get your MCP server URL and API key. Then add Quillly as an MCP server in your AI tool — it's one config line. We have one-click setup guides for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Windsurf.

Step 4: Publish your first blog

Open your AI tool and say something like: "Write a blog about [your topic] and publish it to my website." Your AI will:

  1. Create the blog with proper formatting
  2. Score it against 14+ SEO criteria
  3. Fix any SEO issues
  4. Publish it to your domain

That's it. Your first blog is live.
