Automate Content to Passive Income!
How to Make Money With AI Automated Content Using Flowblox
If your current “AI content strategy” involves twelve tabs, three logins, and a prayer, there is an easier way. Flowblox gives you one place to plan, automate, and publish articles, social posts, podcasts, and videos, so you focus on strategy while the robots handle the grind. 
Why Flowblox beats generic automations for content
Make and Zapier are excellent for wiring apps together and triggering AI across thousands of services. They shine for CRM and back-office workflows, and they can publish content too. For a content business, though, you can end up juggling steps, retries, and credentials instead of shipping posts every day. Flowblox narrows the job to content planning and multichannel publishing with tags, tone, platforms, and schedules set once. Its roadmap covers podcast and marketing features, which means your pieces can fan out automatically after you click publish.     
Messing with OpenAI API keys in public clients is not fun and not safe. Best practice is to keep keys server side and never expose them in the browser, which is exactly the kind of plumbing Flowblox abstracts for non-engineers.  
The traffic and revenue math, in plain English
There are only three levers that matter. Traffic, monetization, and margins. Use these planning numbers to keep your goals honest.
Display ads
Publishers often report ad RPMs in a broad range that depends on niche and season. Real-world reports show values from the low teens up to the thirties and beyond. For planning, model £25 to £35 per thousand pageviews. At £25 RPM you need about 2,000,000 monthly pageviews to hit £50,000. At £35 RPM you need about 1,428,571. To reach £1.2 million at £35 RPM, think roughly 34,285,714 monthly pageviews, usually a portfolio play. Results vary by niche and quarter.  
Affiliate
Benchmarks help you sanity-check your funnel. Click-through rates of about 0.5 to 1 percent are common, and average purchase conversion for affiliate traffic often sits around 0.5 to 1 percent. Example. With 5,000,000 pageviews and 1 percent CTR you get 50,000 clicks. At 1 percent purchase conversion and a £120 CPA you would earn about £60,000. Stack this on top of ads and the math compounds.   
Programmatic SEO can fuel the traffic
Case studies show automated, template-driven publishing growing signups or users meaningfully when quality stays high. Think thousands to tens of thousands of incremental visitors per month as the library expands.  
The Flowblox blueprint that is simple to run
1. Pick a moat-able niche
Choose problems with recurring search demand and obvious monetization. Good clusters. AI basics and trends, AI tools for creators, make money with AI, operations and scale. Build a hub page per cluster, then publish spokes weekly. Interlink hubs, spokes, and related posts. 
2. Wire your sources
In Flowblox, feed topic seeds from URLs, RSS, or short prompts. Set tags, tone, platforms, and cadence. Map outputs to your CMS, newsletter, podcast, and social channels. Your calendar becomes the autopilot. 
3. Keep a human in the loop
Do a fast editor pass for facts, E-E-A-T signals, internal links, product callouts, and screenshots. This keeps quality high and protects you from thin, unhelpful pages. Google is fine with AI, it is not fine with unoriginal scaled content.  
4. Monetize early and measure
Turn on ads when eligible. Add comparison tables and strong CTAs to buyer posts. Track RPM by page type and affiliate EPC by program. Refresh top posts quarterly. 
5. Scale by template
Create repeatable outlines for listicles, how-tos, and X vs Y pages. Use programmatic variables and internal link blocks so every new piece strengthens the hub.

Flowblox vs Make and Zapier, summed up
Speed to first publish
Flowblox is purpose-built for content teams that want drafts, calendars, and distribution in one place. 
Breadth of automations
Make and Zapier are unmatched for general business automations and AI agents. Keep them for CRM, analytics, or custom glue around your content pipeline.  
Maintenance
Flowblox reduces prompt orchestration and key wrangling. You still benefit from best practices for key security if you ever connect external tools. 
SEO safeguards that keep traffic growing
Google’s stance is simple. Helpful content wins, origin does not matter. What gets penalized is scaled, unoriginal output made just to manipulate rankings. Add real value, cite sources, keep an editor in the loop, and you are on the right side of updates.
