Prompt objective

Standardize SEO content production with professional briefs that guide writers to create articles already optimized to rank on Google.

Real use case

VidaSaudável, a wellness blog with a team of 5 freelance writers, spends an average of 3 revision rounds per article because drafts arrive without SEO optimization. They want a briefing process that reduces revisions to 1 round and increases first-page ranking rate from 15% to 50%.
