Article Fiesta: AI Writing Tool Tested + Reviewed In-Depth

AI is becoming a really powerful tool when it comes to content writing. But what I tell you about is a tool that can help you write content, do basic SEO, publish your blog to WordPress, do internal linking and more. All this and more with a cost less than a coffee.

I tried the tool and gave it topics that require different levels of expertise. One topic requires less expertise or everyday expertise, but some require a high level of expertise (EAT), like financial or health topics. 

The AI tool I am testing today is called Article Fiesta and I asked Ashley, the founder, about what his vision was before creating the tool and what are his plans for the future:

The tool actually started off more as a bit of a convenience thing. I work on a number of blogs and as I’m sure you are all no doubt aware when you want to compete in google at a higher level, you need to churn out a whole bunch of content. Not too much of an issue in an of itself, but the more you take on, the more you need to produce, so that’s why I, like I’m sure many other readers, turned to AI tools. I actually have worked in the field of machine learning for a number of years so it wasn’t too unfamiliar for me to look into AI, and originally I played with tools like Jasper and Rytr, but ultimately found them lacking. I just seemed to need to keep retrying sentences over and over and just wasting tokens on nonsense, and then even after I had spent hours trying to craft the perfect response, I then still needed to spend additional hours adding in images, sorting out the alt tags, dealing with the page meta, building internal links, all the usual and boring SEO stuff.
What’s worse is it was the same every time. It’s not like each article needed some unique craft to it, it’s just ‘to make sure a correct number of titles, make sure they are all nested correctly, find 3 bits of other relevant content from the site to link to, highlight keywords, make sure my wordcount is high enough.’ It’s the same each and every time. And as a programmer, when I do something more than 3 times, I automate it.
This is how Article Fiesta was forged, it was more out of necessitiy for myself than my hoping to start a new product. I wasn’t in it for the money, I was in it because there was literally nothing else on the planet that would do what I would consider the most important and repetitive parts or maintain a website that’s going to grow in google, on autopilot.
As I mentioned I work on a number of websites, and I’m always looking at ways to improve their rankings. This can be from tweaking title lengths (be it pixel width or character length), maximizing the results by tweaking a number of dashes in a slug, to making sure an image used has the correct width parameters supplied to improve LCP for google to rank you higher. These are all ranking factors, and no matter how small – each and every one needs your focus, and the more I can automate (all of these are handled by Article Fiesta out of the box), the higher you can rank. Whenever I show people the product they are blown away by how much is handled, and a lot of it they didn’t even know they needed to handle. This is why it does so well

This post will help you answer whether the tool understands the intent or not. I will be looking at content quality, meta quality, and overall quality and usability. 

How did I choose the topics for the AI?

The process of choosing topics was based on expertise levels. One topic requires limited to no expertise, or daily expertise. The other topics require high levels of expertise (EAT) and are YMYL topics. One is related to finance and the other is related to health. 

My approach was to pick three topics that require less to more expertise. It is no doubt that AI can write good content, but I am trying to find how AI structures the more typical subjects like finance and health, and how it compares to human writing. 

I will be looking at the quality and quantity of the AI content. I will look if the meta (title and Description) are created correctly or not, how the text compares to human written text, and the overall quality. 

First Topic is called “How frequently should one drink water”. This a topic that requires little research and anybody can write. 

The Second Topic is called “Factors to Consider When Buying Stocks”. This topic requires high levels of EAT and is a YMYL topic.

The Third Topic is called “Diagnosis of Malaria”. It also requires high EAT. 

The process of generating an article through Article Fiesta is as follows:

• Go on to the website Article Fiesta, and log in there. 
• Head over to Articles and click “Create [Simple Mode]”

• Now, you just need to enter your keyword and click on “Create my article”.

It will take 2-3 minutes and will generate a whole new article on your topic. 

The tool provides you with Meta Title, Intent, featured Image, Category, Meta Description, Word Count, Readability score, Readability Grade, Plagiarism score, Google Drive link, WordPress link, the actual content, which includes many H2s, some bold phrases, lists, images, and videos, and FAQs.

So this was the basic intro to the tool. Now let’s examine the content. 

How did the Article Fiesta Perform?

Article Fiesta did a great job at understanding the keywords, generating the content, and producing meta titles and descriptions. The quality of content is good enough, but the images in the free version are not the greatest quality because the AI gets the images from royalty-free sources. The AI also seems to repeat some words and not complete some sentences. 

Let’s break down the performance by each article:

Keyword 1: How frequently should one Drink Water

Meta Title: The meta title it created was, “How Much Water Do You Need To Stay Hydrated?”.  This is a good title overall. It clearly describes what the page will be about and I don’t think I will change it at any point. This is the kind of title that a user will click through to read the content as it provides them with answers to their query. 

Meta description: It was, “According to Mayo Clinic, most healthy adults need about eight glasses of fluids per day”. In my opinion, this can be changed, as it is just quoting a sentence from the Mayo Clinic. The meta description should hint at what’s in the article, but it is not providing much info.

Images and Videos: It created 3 images and 1 video for the content. The alt for all three images were, “Young woman applying body cream at home”, “Thanks mom for treating us to a few days of R&R! 😃🏊🍹” and “person gets ready to water a small potted plant”.

It is clear that the AI didn’t get the image part right. The website says if you are a paid member, the chances of getting a good image increase because then the images will be generated by AI and will be original images. 

The video was sourced from YouTube titled, “How to Stay Hydrated | Water Toxicity | How Much Water is Enough? -Thomas DeLauer”. The video matches the topic clearly, and is a good addition, as people like to consume video content.

Content:  The AI understood the intent well, it made headings that help answer the main question. But there are some things that need to be noted:

1. The average article length comes to around 1000 words when I search this keyword on Google. The AI wrote 1636 words
2. The tool seems to repeat some information over and over again. 
3. The content in subheadings starts to go in a good direction, then doesn’t go deep into explaining why a certain thing is written that way. 

Overall, I think that this article was written well but you still need to interfere and make changes to it because it is not perfect. Some sentences don’t make sense and some don’t go deep into info.

Keyword 2: Factors to Consider When Buying Stocks

Meta Title: The meta title it created was, “The Five Factors to Consider When Buying Stocks”. It is clear, and crisp, and communicates the message in a simple manner. I really loved how it chose the number for itself, even though I didn’t ask for 5 factors. 

Meta Description: The description was “When buying stocks, there are five key factors to consider: company history, financial stability, management team, expected growth, and valuation”. I think it is a good description, compared to the last one, but I don’t think you should spill the tea right before a user enter your article right? So I would change it a little. 

Images and Videos: The featured image is to the point. It shows different devices that show the candlestick chart. It created five images and one video, but I am not so sure about them. Here are some alt tags of the images, “STOCK – Nebula 1”, “young woman gazes out of a rustic window”, “beer stock”, and more. The images were not aligned with the topic.

The video included had a title, “9 things to check before buying a stock”. This is a great video as it perfectly aligns with the topic.

Content: Even though this topic is YMYL and requires high levels of expertise, I think AI has done a great job at producing content. If I just say about the content (excluding headings), then the tool is doing great. The headings are a little misleading, as it says something, but the content underneath them says something else. 

The content is giving good advice on what to know before you buy stocks, what things you should know about the company, how to choose stocks, and more. With a few changes here and there, I think anyone can use this content. But I would recommend asking an expert to give you an opinion on the content before posting it anywhere. 

Keyword 3: Diagnosis of Malaria

Meta Title: The meta title is, “Diagnosis and treatment of malaria | How to tell if you have malaria”. It is a bit long and it will be truncated when displayed in the SERPs. The title can be a little better. 

Meta Description: The meta description is, “If you have malaria, you may experience fever, chills, and flu-like symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent serious complications.”. The description is really good, compared to the last two. If I were to change it, I would add a line that says, “This article discusses the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of malaria.” or something like that.

Images and Videos: The article has 3 in-text images and 1 featured image. No videos were found this time. The featured image was not relevant so I asked the tool to make a difference for me, and it worked. Two of the three images are not relevant. Only one is relevant and it has alt text, “Man using fogger machine to control dangerous from mosquitoes”, other two have alt text like, “Close-Up Shot of Gray Wristwatch”, and “man in a grey sweater looks into the camera”.

Content: Most of the things that are written in the article are pretty good. The article discusses one type of malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum. This type is the most life-threatening and it has given sufficient information about it. It includes symptoms, how to diagnose malaria, clinical tests, and also has treatment options. Some paragraphs were so accurately written that you would get confused as to who wrote them. The FAQs are also well-written, and the answers look legit. 

Overall, the content quality is good, but it is recommended that the content is reviewed by a medical professional. 

The Results

Best Meta- The article about water has the best meta (The title and descriptions). It is because the meta title and description are good enough and the images are also matching the intent. (Not all images match the intent, but they are loosely related to water). The video also matches the topic.

Best content– The finance-related article is the best content in my opinion. It gives me details about being realistic when investing and different tips on how to choose a company. (Although I am not an expert on finance, I do think the information is pretty legit, based on my experience in investment)

Overall Score– If I talk about the overall score, which includes everything like images, videos, meta, and more, the malaria article was good. Even though the in-text images were a little off-track, I would still say the content quality is appreciable. The details about treatment, diagnosis, and different symptoms are sufficient and after reviewing the content from a professional, I think it can be published. 

It is such an irony that each article wins one category. But let’s see what the final verdict is…

Final Verdict

The AI does a great job of understanding different topics and it produces great content and meta tags. Also, the tool is very easy to use and is UX-friendly. It has created great content, and with a few tweaks and reviewing the content from a professional, I think Article Fiesta can really help you ease the process of content creation. 

The additional things it does provide an extra edge that other tools don’t have. For example, you can connect your WordPress blog to the tool and you can directly post the article there. It can do the on-page SEO tasks like filling in the title, description, keywords, and alt text in images, and can also do internal linking. So all of these things provide the tool an extra edge. 

I think you should try the tool for yourself, not because it gives 2 articles free, but because it is really good quality compared to other AI writing tools.

P.S. This is not a sponsored post. I genuinely find this tool to be amazing and I think it will help you in the long run.
