Most of my clients need 30-50 location pages targeting different cities. Same layout, different city/keyword on each one.
I've been doing this for years and it's still the most tedious part of the job. The actual SEO strategy takes an hour, then I spend the next two days building pages.
I've tried speeding it up with AI tools and custom scripts but honestly nothing has fully solved it. The content part is easy now, it's the formatting, internal linking, and actually getting it into WordPress that eats the time.
How are other agencies handling this? Anyone found a workflow that doesn't make you want to quit?
Instead of panicking I started looking at which parts of my job AI could actually do better than me. Turns out, the most tedious part of my work, building the same type of page over and over with different city names and keywords, was the easiest thing to automate.
I started hacking together scripts but it got messy. So I built a WordPress plugin called Tmpltr. Here's what it does:
Site-aware AI that reads your existing WordPress pages and automatically adds real internal links to generated content
Reusable page templates with custom fields (city, keyword, service name, whatever you need)
AI-powered content generation that produces unique content per page
Real WordPress pages created directly in your dashboard, not drafts in some external tool
Compatible with Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg, and any page builder
No API key or external accounts needed
I built this to solve my own problem but a few agencies have started using it too and the feedback has been solid. Turns out everyone doing local SEO at scale has the same bottleneck.
Right now it's free to install. I'm focused on getting feedback and building out what users actually need before worrying about monetization.
