Use AI to create SEO-friendly blog posts (the right way!)

March 04, 2025

Most AI-written blog posts are terrible for SEO. They’re generic, keyword-stuffed, and lack originality.

But AI isn’t the problem—the way people use it is.

Here’s how to use AI the right way to create SEO-friendly blog posts:

Step 1: Generate an outline

Use this prompt:

Act as an SEO strategist. Create a detailed blog post outline for the keyword: [Insert keyword]. Ensure it covers key subtopics, frequently asked questions, and search intent. Suggest an engaging title and H1-H6 structure.

Step 2: Write a first draft 

Use this prompt:

Write a blog post based on this outline.

“””[Insert outline]”””

Keep it concise, informative, and engaging.

Avoid fluff, keyword stuffing, and generic AI tone.

Review and adjust as required.

🚨Tip: If you’re not happy with the tone of voice, ask it to rewrite it with the tone or personality attributes of your brand.

Step 3: Generate a meta description

Use this prompt:

Write an SEO-friendly meta description under 160 characters that includes the primary keyword.

Step 4: Generate a thumbnail image

Use this prompt:

Generate a relevant image for this blog post.

Now, instead of publishing another forgettable AI-written post, you have a high-quality, SEO-friendly, and engaging blog that actually ranks.

Happy prompting!
