The Challenge
Creating comprehensive, SEO-optimized content about thousands of cultural and historical landmarks is an enormous undertaking when done manually. The goal was to build an automated content generation pipeline that could produce high-quality, factually accurate pages for lighthouses, castles, mills, and churches, each with unique descriptions, historical context, and visitor information.
My Contribution
Built a complete AI-powered content generation pipeline using LLMs to research, write, and structure content for thousands of landmark pages. Each page includes unique descriptions, historical facts, geographic coordinates, and visitor information, all generated and validated through automated quality checks.
Developed the web platform using Next.js with static site generation, optimizing for SEO with structured data, sitemaps, and semantic HTML. Created a scalable architecture that serves four associated websites (lighthouse-index.com, castle-index.com, mill-index.com, church-index.com) from a shared codebase.
Key Results
- Generated thousands of unique, SEO-optimized landmark pages automatically
