Draft a blog post from a few keywords
Start with three or four keywords and end with an outlined, fully drafted blog post in Google Docs, ready for your own edit.
When to use it
Whenever you need a new article
Step by step
Choose your keywords and reader
Write down the main phrase you want to be found for, two or three related phrases, and who the article is for.
Get an outline first
Ask for the outline before the full draft so you can steer it. Paste this into your AI assistant.
Prompt to copyI'm writing a blog post for [business or blog name]. Reader: [who they are and what they're struggling with]. Main keyword: [phrase]. Related phrases: [list]. Suggest 3 title options (under 60 characters, main keyword near the start) and an outline with an intro, 4-6 H2 headings, a short bullet list under each of what to cover, and a conclusion with a call to action to [action]. Note any facts or figures I'll need to check or supply.Adjust, then ask for the draft
Change the outline as you like, then reply: 'Write the full post from this outline, 900-1,200 words, in a friendly, expert tone, short paragraphs, British English. Use my own examples where I've marked them.'
Edit it in Google Docs
Paste the draft into a Google Doc. Add your own stories, opinions and photos; that is what makes it worth reading and stops it sounding generic.

Tips
- Check every fact, rule or statistic the draft includes against an official source before publishing.
