Video coming soon ⏳

Let's suppose we want to write a blog about "How to start a startup" and we want to use the information available in three YouTube videos:

1) Lecture 1 - How to Start a Startup (Sam Altman, Dustin Moskovitz);
2) 5 Steps to Start Your First Business; and
3) 30 Years of Business Knowledge in 2hrs 26mins.

We just need five minutes to use all the information available in these videos.


  1. Open Editby and click on "New Draft"


  2. Once you open the writing page, choose what type of content you want to create.
    In this case, we want to create an article (How to start a startup) starting from YT videos.
    So, click on the second option.


  3. Now we have to enter our topic: "How to start a startup" and all the YouTube videos' link that we want to use.
    At this point we can add the keywords we are trying to rank for on Google. Focusing on keywords will help us understand what the article is about and when it should show our article based on Google user searches.
    We can choose also a template for our article. Editby allows its users to choose a default template or create a custom template. If you have created your template, you can choose it during this phase. If you want to know how to create your own template on Editby, check the next point.


  4. If you want to create your own template, click on "template" and then on "custom template"


  5. Now we are ready to create our article. So, click on "Create content". Editby will ask you to choose between a four title options and to check (confirm or edit) the paragraph of your article. Once you have checked and modified the parameters you want to change, you can click on "Create full post"


  6. Now you will see the article on the right.
    In this way, you can copy and paste the article on the left or rewrite the article.


  7. At this point, you only need to copy-paste the article on the left and start the editing phase. You can edit the article manually or you can ask AI to rewrite, improve writing, fix spelling & grammar, make the text shorter or make the text longer.


  8. If you need to add the article's sources, you just need to underline the text and click on "sources"


  9. Now it's time to optimize the article to rack on Google.
    To do this, simply click on the menu on the right "SEO" and Editby will show you a score related to a keyword you entered or you can ask the platform to identify a keyword.
    At this point, improve the article following Editby's instructions.
