How we used ChatGPT to optimize 10,000 products on a WooCommerce store

Learn how we leveraged ChatGPT to optimize 10,000 products on one of our customers WooCommerce online stores.

In this article, we’ll explore how ChatGPT can generate metadata for products in an online store. With thousands of products, manually creating and optimizing meta descriptions can be tedious and time-consuming. That’s where ChatGPT comes in – it can generate high-quality meta descriptions quickly and efficiently, saving you valuable time and effort.  We’ll show you how to leverage the power of this AI chatbot to create optimized meta descriptions and meta titles for thousands of products, with a focus on following Yoast’s seven recommendations for good meta descriptions.

And here are the 7 points:

1. Keep it up to 155 characters
2. Use an active voice and make it actionable
3. Include a call to action
4. Use your focus keyphrase
5. Show specifications when needed
6. Make sure it matches the content of the page
7. Make it unique

Example: Creating Meta Descriptions for a Touch Marker Product

Suppose you have a product description like the one below:
[Brand name] has the same ergonomic design and good quality inks like the black [Brand name], but in a white suit and with a brush tip in one end. The soft and durable brush tip provides stable and even brush strokes of up to 4mm. The other end has a chisel shape tip with stroke width of 2-5 mm. This gives illustrators, draftsmen, designers and scrappers opportunities for even more techniques. The brush tip can be used for most brush techniques, even color mixtures and fine, delicate and decorative lines. [Brand name] Brush and [Brand name] Marker are great to use together. They have same color selection of 204 colours, and same high quality ink. - Alcohol-based, lightfast ink - Dries waterproof - Odor and non-toxic
Let’s ask ChatGPT to create a 155-character long meta description with an active voice  and a call for action based on this product description:
Input: Create a 155 character long text with active voice based and request a call for action on the following text:
Output: Experience the versatility of [Brand name] Brush Marker! Create stunning artworks with its soft brush tip & chisel tip. Get yours today and elevate your craft!

Harnessing ChatGPT’s Potential for Your E-Commerce Site

The examples above demonstrate the power of ChatGPT in generating and improving content for a single product. By applying this technology to your entire product catalog, you can optimize metadata, boost readability, and enhance overall user experience.

Time and Cost Savings with ChatGPT

A significant advantage of using ChatGPT for product description optimization is the considerable time and cost savings. Manually writing and updating meta descriptions for a large number of products, even with best practices like Yoast’s seven points, can consume hundreds of hours.

By harnessing ChatGPT’s AI capabilities, businesses can drastically cut down the time and resources required for optimization. This AI-driven approach speeds up the process while maintaining quality and compliance with best practices. As a result, businesses can allocate more time to other crucial aspects, fostering growth and competitiveness in the fast-paced e-commerce world.
