The goal
Turn a static cricket site design into a publishing machine: fresh match content every day, without a newsroom.
Theme
We converted the static HTML into a full WordPress theme with a Customizer-driven homepage, real post loops, SEO infrastructure and affiliate ad slots placed where they earn without hurting reading flow.
CG Writer
The AI writing plugin needed debugging: its scheduled path skipped the affiliate and image steps that worked in manual runs. We fixed the pipeline, added a backfill feature for older posts, deduplicated images across Unsplash, Pexels and Pixabay, and fixed sport disambiguation so cricket queries stopped pulling in other sports.
CG Fantasy Predictor
Built from scratch, the predictor uses Claude’s web search to discover upcoming matches, generates SEO-optimised prediction pages, pings IndexNow on publish and includes a manual match-add form for editors.
