Show HN: Tired of overpriced SEO tools? I built SEOzast for the price of coffee

https://www.seozast.com/

After getting frustrated with expensive and clunky SEO tools, I decided to build my own.

I made SEOzast — a tool that lets you generate 1000-word AI-written SEO articles with real backlinks from your site.

It’s built for indie hackers, solo founders, and people launching niche projects who want organic traffic without spending $50/month or writing a single blog post.

You enter your sites, SEOzast analyzes them to generate titles, descriptions, and topics. Then it handles the rest: from H1 tags to meta descriptions, internal linking from your real articles, and deployment to GitHub in one click as markdown or React (TSX/JSX) pages. Images are fetched from Pexels, and you can download articles in different formats.

It runs on Next.js, uses OpenAI under the hood, and I host it myself to keep costs low (cheaper than a coffee/month).

I’m still improving it and would love your feedback. Brutal honesty welcome.

Hey HN I’m Eliana, a dive instructor turned indie maker. I built this to scratch my own itch — I wanted a way to test niche SEO ideas without wasting time or money.

I’m still learning as I go, and I’d love your feedback, ideas, or even just to hear if someone else has tried this approach.

Thanks for reading!
