About Viralomatic Automatic Post Generator

Built for people who want a news blog that feeds itself (not for those seeking editorial authority)

Running a news blog means publishing every day, and hardly anyone can keep up that pace writing by hand. Viralomatic Automatic Post Generator takes care of the mechanical part: it searches for news using rules you define and turns them into WordPress posts without you having to step in every day.

It suits you if you build a niche news site, a topical blog that needs constant activity or a project you want to monetize with links. It doesn't suit you if your brand depends on original, signed content: what the plugin imports comes from other websites and isn't yours.

  • It needs a Currents or ValueSERP API key to work, since that is where the news comes from.
  • It requires PHP with cURL enabled.
  • It imports third-party content: the developer warns that they have no control over its nature or availability, so the responsibility for what you publish and how you credit it is yours.

How Viralomatic decides which news makes it onto your site

The plugin works with rules. Each rule defines what to search for and when to run, and runs are scheduled automatically.

  • Search by keywords, and by article language or country.
  • Filter by author and by date.
  • Required keywords: a post is only published if they appear in the title or content.
  • Banned keywords: if they appear, the news item is discarded.
  • Minimum and maximum length limits for title and content, plus an option not to publish posts without images.

Those filters are what separate a blog that makes sense from a dump of articles. Spend time fine-tuning them before leaving a rule on automatic.

What you can change before the post goes live

Every generated post can be customized with shortcodes in the title and content. You can choose the status (published, draft, pending, private or trash), the content type (post, page or any custom post type), create categories or tags automatically or assign them by hand, and enable or disable comments, pingbacks and trackbacks.

If you prefer to review before publishing, leave posts as drafts or pending. It's the prudent option while you test your rules.

Translation, spinner and other ways to modify the text

So it doesn't just repeat the source text word for word, the plugin offers translation with Google Translate or DeepL and rewriting with a built-in spinner, plus integration with The Best Spinner, SpinRewriter, WordAI and others that swap words for synonyms. It also generates a featured image and can add a rel=canonical tag pointing to the original source.

An automatic spinner doesn't guarantee natural writing. Review several results before relying on it, and remember that the final quality depends on what the API delivers.

Monetizing with links: shortener and keyword replacement

  • The links to each news item's source can be shortened with Shorte.st, and so monetized.
  • The Keyword Replacer swaps the words you define in your content for your affiliate links.
  • The Random Sentence Generator adds sentences that you write to vary the texts.

It logs activity in detail, which helps you see why a rule didn't publish what you expected. It also includes support for Gutenberg blocks.

Frequently asked questions about Viralomatic Automatic Post Generator

Does it work without an API key?

No. The news arrives through Currents or ValueSERP, so you need a key from one of the two services. It accepts several keys separated by commas.

Can I try it before using it on my site?

Yes, there is a test site generator with all the features. The test blog deletes itself after 24 hours.

Does it publish the full news articles?

It generates posts from the information the API returns. How much text each one carries depends on the service, so check it in the demo before building a project on it.

Is it suitable for a serious brand website?

Only as a complement, with strict filters and review. As the sole source of content, no.
