Let's just say you're building a website. I'm using Mighty Sites. I'll put the link down to it below. Mighty Sites is just a super easy small business website builder for those building a professional, simple informational website about their business. I'm pretending I'm building a page for a personal trainer. And let's just say that personal trainer wants to add a blog. I just added the blog to the site. And now I'm going to show you how easy this is to add the blog to the site.

First thing I'm going to do is go over here to Elfsight. And I'm putting the link to Mighty Sites. If you don't have a website, Mighty Sites is down below. It's only $9 a month to build a website for your business. And I'm going to put the link to Elfsight. Elfsight is how you integrate the blog widget. All I need to do is go over here to the blog widget. I'll put the link to this page. Elfsight has all these different widgets. They all work with the Mighty Sites platform.

You can see now I've got my fitness blog and it actually already put these fitness blogs in here. I'm going to assume that you can probably just use those. But let's say that you want to add another post. What you do is create manually or generate with AI. Now, I'm just going to go over here and click on generate with AI and topic, say, workout tips, and then tone of voice, length, neutral. I'm going to generate the post now.

So now it's generating a post for me that I can add to my fitness blog. See, it's writing out this whole blog for me that's going to fit right into my already set up thing. You can see that it's even generating some images for me right here. So, let's let that load. Okay, super cool. So, now you can see AI just generated this blog right in my blog template.
