Drop rewrites into your CMS

Platform-specific tips to get the most from every rewrite.

WordPress

  • Replace your intro block and update the excerpt field — some themes render excerpt as meta description.
  • If using RankMath/Yoast, rerun SEO scoring — the new intro usually bumps 5-10 points.
  • Use A/B testing plugins (Nelio, SplitHero) to validate intro lift on high-traffic posts.

Ghost

  • Paste the rewrite into the first text block. Ghost auto-generates the excerpt from the opener.
  • Leverage Ghost's email preview — if the intro hooks in email, it hooks on web too.
  • Use Ghost's internal notes field to log A/B test metadata per post.

Webflow / Framer

  • Replace the intro rich-text block. Both platforms render instantly, so you can preview the change live.
  • Test on mobile first — most traffic is mobile and intro legibility matters most there.
  • Keep a "before" copy in your CMS for rollback if analytics drop.

Substack / Medium

  • Email readers see your intro in the preview snippet — invest here more than on web.
  • Keep the first line under 100 characters for email clients that truncate.
  • Test stronger intros on newsletter issues; extrapolate learnings to your blog.

Notion / Google Docs

  • Paste rewrite, compare side-by-side with original in a two-column layout.
  • Highlight new phrasing in color to discuss with editors and clients.
  • Use comments to log which phrases landed and which didn't for learnings.

Common errors and fixes

Output not landing? Here's how to steer it.

Rewrite feels too different from original

Cause: AI over-corrected your tone.

Fix: Add tone notes in your description: "keep casual, avoid jargon" — the AI respects explicit directives.

Keywords not appearing

Cause: Keywords field was left empty or keywords too esoteric.

Fix: Separate keywords with commas. For niche terms, include a context word: "BLIP-2, vision-language model".

Intro too long

Cause: AI expanded instead of condensing.

Fix: Add "keep under 100 words" to your description. The AI obeys word count directives.

Rewrite in wrong language

Cause: Mixed-language input.

Fix: Paste intro in single language. AI matches the dominant language.

Identical to input

Cause: AI sometimes returns near-identical when input is already strong.

Fix: Rerun. Or paste a rougher draft — the rewriter shines on first-pass copy.

Empty output

Cause: Moderation filter or network hiccup.

Fix: Rephrase avoiding trademark or flagged words. Retry. 99.2% success rate.

Copy button did nothing

Cause: Browser clipboard permission.

Fix: Grant permission in browser settings, or select text manually and Cmd/Ctrl+C.

Output has AI cliches

Cause: "In today's world", "in the fast-paced" — occasional AI drift.

Fix: Paste the rewrite + your tone into ChatGPT with "remove AI cliches". Or rerun — 60% of reruns are cleaner.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Blog Intro Rewriter do?+

It takes your existing intro and rewrites it as a stronger opener — tighter hook, clearer value proposition, natural keyword placement, and a reading flow that keeps visitors on the page past the critical 10-second mark.

Is the intro rewriter really free?+

Yes — 100% free, no signup, no credit card, no watermark, unlimited rewrites. We run it as a free-forever tool and upsell power users to the Grigora CMS.

Can I use the rewritten intros commercially?+

Absolutely. Use them in client work, your own blog, ghostwriting projects, books — the output is yours. We claim zero ownership.

How long is the rewritten intro?+

Typically 80-140 words — long enough to set context, short enough that readers do not scroll past. The AI aims for a 3-4 sentence hook, a value line, and a one-line preview of what the post covers.

Does it preserve my tone of voice?+

Yes. The rewriter reads your draft and keeps your voice — if you wrote casual, it stays casual; if you wrote formal, it stays formal. It sharpens without replacing.

Will the intro include my keywords naturally?+

Yes — enter target keywords in the second field and the AI weaves them into the opener without stuffing. We optimize for search intent match, not keyword density.

Can I run multiple rewrites on the same intro?+

Yes. Each run samples fresh phrasing, so run 2-3 times and pick your favorite. A/B test them against your original with a tool like Microsoft Clarity or VWO.

Does this work for non-English blogs?+

Yes. Paste your intro in Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and 20+ other languages. The rewrite comes back in the same language.

How is this different from Grammarly or ProWritingAid?+

Those tools catch grammar and style errors line-by-line. Our rewriter rebuilds the intro from the top — changes structure, adds a hook, repositions keywords. Pair both: rewrite first, polish with Grammarly second.

Will my draft be used for AI training?+

No. Drafts are processed for your rewrite and not stored or used for training. We log hit counts anonymously for abuse detection only.

What makes a great blog intro in 2026?+

Four things: (1) answer the reader's immediate question in sentence one (good for SGE), (2) cite a specific stat or detail that proves expertise, (3) preview the post's unique angle, (4) include the primary keyword naturally in the first 100 words.

Does this help with featured snippets?+

Yes. Our rewrite prioritizes answer-first sentences — the structure Google picks up for featured snippets and SGE citations. Combined with proper schema, intro-first posts pull disproportionate AI search traffic.
