Set the language your article is written in and the kind of page you're creating — both shape how Content Genius structures and writes your content.

Before you generate, pick a language and a page type in the composer. The language controls what your article is written in; the page type controls its structure, depth, and how it's marked up for search engines.

🧭 Where to set them

Both options live in the composer on the Content Genius home, alongside the Brand Vault and length pickers.

Navigation: Left sidebar → Content → Content Genius → composer

🌐 Supported languages

Content Genius writes and optimizes articles end-to-end in the following languages. Choose the one that matches your audience — including the regional variant, which affects spelling and phrasing.

Language Regions
English United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada
Spanish Spain, Mexico
Portuguese Portugal, Brazil
French France
German Germany
Italian Italy
Dutch Netherlands

Pick from the supported list. Choosing a language or region outside the ones above will stop generation. If your target language isn't listed yet, use the closest supported option.

⚙️ How the language is chosen

If you don't pick a language, Content Genius decides for you in this order:

  1. Your choice in the composer — always wins if you set it.
  2. Your Brand Vault's voice language — used if you didn't choose one.
  3. US English — the default if neither is set.

📄 Page types

The page type tells Content Genius what kind of content to build. It shapes the article's structure and the behind-the-scenes markup that helps search engines understand the page.

Choose the one that matches your goal:

Page type Best for
Blog post General articles and topic coverage (the default).
Commercial / pillar Broad, authoritative pages that anchor a topic and link to related articles.
How-to guide Step-by-step instructions to complete a task.
Comparison Side-by-side comparisons of options, products, or approaches.
Service page Pages that describe a service you offer.
Product review Evaluations and reviews of a product.
Recipe Food and recipe content with the right structure.
Landing page Focused, conversion-oriented pages.
Informational Explainers and reference content.

Not sure which to pick? Start with Blog post. You can always create a new article with a different page type, or ask Atlas to restructure the content in the editor.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change the language after the article is generated?

Yes. In the editor, ask Atlas to change the article's language. It will translate and adapt the content for you.

Why did my generation stop when I chose a language?

The language or region you selected isn't supported yet. Choose one from the supported list above and try again.

What's the difference between the regional variants of English?

They control spelling and phrasing conventions — for example, US, UK, Australian, and Canadian English differ in spelling ("optimize" vs "optimise") and wording. Pick the one that matches where your audience is.

Does the page type change how the article ranks?

The page type sets the right structure and search-engine markup for your content, which helps search engines understand and display it correctly. Choose the type that genuinely matches your page's purpose.
