How to Automate Blog Post Keyword Research with MCP (2026)

Why Automate Blog Post Keyword Research?

Blog Post Keyword Research is one of the most time-consuming recurring SEO tasks. Most teams do it manually: open a tool, navigate to the right report, export data, analyze in a spreadsheet, write up findings. An MCP-powered workflow replaces all of that with a single conversation.

When you automate blog post keyword research with MCP, you get:

Prerequisites

  1. An AI editor that supports MCP (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar)
  2. Delulu9 MCP server ($12/mo) for keyword and search data
  3. Optional: additional MCP servers for specialized data sources

Step-by-Step: Automated Blog Post Keyword Research

1. Set Up Your MCP Servers

Add Delulu9 to your editor configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "delulu9": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@delulu9/seo-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {
        "DELULU9_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

2. Create Your Blog Post Keyword Research Prompt

Here’s a prompt template for blog post keyword research:

Run a blog post keyword research for [your site/niche]:

1. Pull keyword data for [your main topics] using Delulu9
2. Analyze search intent distribution across results
3. Check difficulty scores and identify quick wins
4. Compare against [competitor domain] if relevant
5. Generate a prioritized action list with specific recommendations
6. Format as a report with data tables

3. Review and Refine

The AI will execute each step through the MCP server, pulling live data and analyzing it. Review the output, ask follow-up questions, and refine the analysis.

4. Save and Reuse

Save your refined prompt as a template. Run it weekly/monthly with updated parameters.

Sample Output

A typical automated blog post keyword research produces:

Blog Post Keyword Research Across AI Platforms

Platform MCP Support Best For
Cursor Full MCP Terminal-based workflows

For blog post keyword research, Cursor and Claude Code are the best options because they support MCP natively. You get live data access without copy-pasting.

Advanced: Chaining Blog Post Keyword Research with Other Tasks

Combine blog post keyword research with related SEO tasks:

  1. Run blog post keyword research to identify opportunities
  2. Generate content briefs for top opportunities
  3. Create draft content based on briefs
  4. Optimize drafts for target keywords using Competitor Analysis

This entire chain runs in a single AI conversation with MCP data access.
