A good blog outline starts with reader intent. ChatGPT can help organize a post, but it needs to know who is reading, what they want, and what decision they need to make after reading.

Copy this prompt

Create a blog post outline. Topic: [topic] Target reader: [reader] Search intent: [what the reader wants] Goal of the article: [teach, compare, persuade, explain, troubleshoot] Important points to include: [points] Return: 1. SEO-friendly title options 2. Outline with H2 and H3 sections 3. Questions the article should answer 4. Examples to include 5. What not to include because it is off-topic

Common mistake

Do not ask for an outline before defining the reader. A beginner guide and a buyer comparison need different structures.
