A lot of shop websites are frozen the way they were on launch day. The new products are already being promoted on social media, but the site still shows last year's lineup. The promotion is all over your Facebook page, but your homepage is still showing the previous campaign's banner. You meant to write blog posts for SEO, and after two posts it just stopped. It's not that you don't want to update the site. It's that updating is a hassle: the admin is confusing, you're afraid of clicking the wrong thing, and getting someone else to do it costs money and time.
This article treats Roamer AI as your "site editor." We cover the six most common day-to-day update scenarios, each with requests you can use word for word and a description of what it does.
30-Second Overview
| What you want to know | The short answer |
|---|---|
| What your editor can do | Add products and change prices, promo pages and banners, posts with images, SEO titles and descriptions, forms and menus, site-wide text search and replace |
| How to give it work | Describe what you need in plain language, the way you'd brief a new editor |
| How it works | Lists a plan for you to approve → does the work → checks desktop and mobile screenshots → reports back |
| If you're not happy | Say "undo" or "change it back" and it rolls back |
| If your site isn't on RoamerHost | Content, products, SEO, and menus all work; layout editing needs a site hosted on RoamerHost |
| Cost | Pro plan NT$11,988/year (avg. NT$999/mo), hosting and site included |
Before You Hand Off Work: Set the Tone and Brand Colors
On a new editor's first day, you'd tell them about your brand's personality, the colors you use, and how you talk to customers. Roamer AI is the same. Spell it out the first time you work together:
Just say: "We're a handmade dessert shop. The writing should feel warm and friendly, not too much like an ad. Our brand colors are milk-tea beige #C8A27A and dark coffee brown #4A3426. Please set these as the site's brand colors and use them on every new page from now on."
The brand colors are saved as the site's design color palette, so new pages and sections will keep using them. For the tone, we suggest saving the description above and pasting it at the start whenever you give it new work, so everything it writes stays consistent.
Also, every scenario follows the same process: it lists a plan for you to approve before doing anything; when it's done, it automatically captures desktop (1366 px wide) and mobile (390 px wide) screenshots and checks the layout itself before showing you; and if you're not happy, you say "undo" or "change it back" and it rolls back. We won't repeat that in every section below.
Scenario 1: New Products, Price Changes, and Special Offers
For shops running an online store on WooCommerce, product updates are the most frequent job. Roamer AI can add and edit products and product categories, and adjust store settings.
Just say: "Add three new products: Matcha Cream Roll NT$420, Hojicha Cream Roll NT$420, and a Duo Gift Box NT$780. Put them all in the 'Fall Limited' category, and create the category if it doesn't exist. Write about 100 words of description for each, in a warm tone."
"Change the price of 'Classic Pudding' from 65 to 70."
"For every product in the 'Fall Limited' category, add this line to the start of the description: Pre-order by 10/31 for the early-bird price."
What it does: it first lists which products it will add, which category each goes in, and the prices, for you to confirm. After adding them, it captures desktop and mobile screenshots of the product pages to check that the images, prices, and buttons all look right. For real product photos, we suggest taking them yourself, adding them to the WordPress Media Library, and then telling it which one to use.
Scenario 2: Promotions and Announcements
Promotions come and go fast. They're exactly the kind of thing that needs "say it today, live today."
Just say: "Add an 'Anniversary Sale' page: a large image at the top, then the sale dates 11/1–11/15, 10% off everything, and a free tote bag with purchases over NT$1,500, with a sign-up form at the bottom. Add it to the menu when it's done."
"Swap the homepage banner for the anniversary sale key visual, change the text to 'Anniversary Sale: 10% Off Everything,' and link the button to the sale page."
"Add a notice at the very top of the homepage: Closed 10/10–10/12 for the National Day holiday, regular hours resume 10/13."
What it does: it creates the new page, writes the promo copy, generates lifestyle images with AI if needed, builds the sign-up form, and adds the page to the navigation menu. After swapping the homepage banner, it checks that the new page loads and the button link is correct, then shows you the desktop and mobile screenshots. When the sale ends, a quick message wraps it up: "Take down the anniversary sale page and switch the homepage banner back to our regular key visual."
Scenario 3: Publishing Posts
Publishing posts regularly is a great way for customers and search engines to find you, but the hardest part is keeping it up. Hand off the first draft, the images, and the categories, and all you have to do is review.
Just say: "Write a post called 'How to Choose a Fall Gift: Three Dessert Gift Boxes Compared,' about 1,200 words, in a friendly tone. At the end, introduce our fall gift boxes and link to the 'Fall Limited' category page. Add a lifestyle image of a fall picnic. Put it in the 'Gift Guides' category with the tags 'Gifts' and 'Fall.' Don't publish it yet; I want to read it first."
What it does: it writes the post, generates a lifestyle image with AI or finds a suitable one in a free stock library, sets the category and tags, and waits for you to review before publishing. If something needs changing after you read it, just say "The second paragraph is too long, cut it in half" or "Add our shop address at the end."
Two reminders. First, check any facts in the post, like prices, dates, and product ingredients, one last time yourself. What it writes is a first draft; you're the one responsible for your brand's voice and for getting the facts right. Second, AI-generated lifestyle images work well for post images and promo banners where you're setting a mood, but not as product photos. Product photos should show customers the real thing.
Scenario 4: SEO Titles and Descriptions
SEO titles and descriptions are the first text customers see in search results. Many sites never fill them in, so search results just show a not-very-relevant snippet of page text.
Just say: "Go through the SEO title and description on every page and post. Fill in any that are missing, shorten any that are too long, and include 'Taichung handmade desserts' in the titles."
What it does: it first lists which pages are missing SEO settings and how it plans to write them, then sets them page by page once you confirm. A simple rule: saying clearly who you are, where you are, and what you sell does far more than cramming in keywords.
Scenario 5: Forms and Menus
Just say: "Add a contact form to the 'Contact Us' page with name, phone, email, and a message field, and send submissions to [email protected]."
"Change the menu to: Home, Products, Store Info, Blog, Contact Us."
What it does: it builds the form and adds it to the page, updates the navigation menu, and checks screenshots to confirm the menu also opens properly on mobile. Once the form is set up, fill it out yourself and make sure the email actually arrives. If it doesn't, tell it, "I filled out the contact form but didn't get the email. Find out what's wrong," and it will read the plugin settings and error logs to find the cause.
Scenario 6: Site-Wide Text Search and Replace
When you move, change your phone number, or change your hours, the biggest risk is missing a spot: the homepage gets updated, but the footer, the contact page, and some post from three years ago still show the old info.
Just say: "Our phone number changed from 04-2345-6789 to 04-2345-0000. Find every place on the site that shows the old number, show me the list first, and change them all once I confirm."
What it does: it searches all text on the site, lists every page and post it finds, and changes them one by one after you confirm. Reviewing the list before making changes is safer than replacing everything blindly, and you can decide which ones to leave alone, like a look-back post about "our old shop location."
A Week of Site Editor Work (Illustrative)
Put the scenarios above into a week, and it looks something like this:
| When | What you say | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Monday morning | "Add two new fall products to the 'Fall Limited' category, with about 100 words of description each." | Adds the WooCommerce products, sets prices and categories, and shows you screenshots of the product pages |
| Wednesday noon | "Swap the homepage banner for the anniversary sale key visual and link the button to the sale page." | Replaces the homepage hero image and text, checks the button link, and captures desktop and mobile screenshots |
| Friday afternoon | "Write a post about fall gifts with a lifestyle image, but don't publish it yet." | Writes the post, generates the image, sets the category and tags, and waits for your review |
| Friday evening | "The post looks good, go ahead and publish it, and write the SEO title and description too." | Publishes the post and sets the SEO title and description |
Your time for the whole week is basically typing those few sentences, looking at screenshots, and replying "looks good." No waiting in line, no quotes.
What Can It Do If My Site Isn't on RoamerHost?
You can still use it if your site isn't on RoamerHost. After connecting with WordPress's built-in Application Passwords, it can handle the day-to-day editor work: post and page content, WooCommerce products, SEO, menus, and plugins.
But layout editing (changes that involve layout, like swapping a homepage banner, rearranging homepage sections, or editing the site-wide header and footer), along with automatic snapshots before changes and snapshot restores, is only available on sites hosted on RoamerHost. If you want the full editor plus the safety net of being able to undo mistakes, consider moving your site: the Pro plan includes migration help for existing sites, so contact [email protected] and we'll help you move.

FAQ
Q: How should I describe what I need so it understands?
Brief it the way you'd brief a new editor: say clearly what to change, what to change it to, and whether there's an example to follow. It's fine if you're not perfectly clear. It lists a plan first, so you can tell from the plan whether it understood you, and correct it if it didn't.
Q: Can I publish the posts it writes right away?
We suggest reading them first. It can write the first draft, add images, and set up categories, tags, and SEO, but facts like prices, dates, and product specs, as well as how your brand wants to say things, are ultimately yours to check.
Q: What if I don't like a change after it's made?
Say "undo" or "change it back" and it rolls back. Every change is logged, so you can roll back one step at a time. On sites hosted on RoamerHost, it also creates an automatic snapshot before every change that can be restored if needed.
Q: Can I use the Basic plan as my site editor?
Roamer AI on the Basic plan is limited to a basic trial of 3 conversations per month, which is good for trying it out. For everyday editor work, you need the Pro plan. You can upgrade from Basic with one click in your dashboard at any time, and it takes effect as soon as payment goes through.
