My Thoughts
Enhanced Prompt for Human-Like Article Writing
LINKING REQUIREMENTS
IN-CONTENT LINKS (2-3 required):
- Use ONLY URLs from Link List 1 A.txt
- Select 2-3 completely different website domains from the file
- Embed these as natural anchor links within article content on relevant keywords (if you recognise some words in the URL you can use)
- Make them feel like recommendations from personal experience, not forced insertions
- Anchor text must relate to what's actually on that specific page/URL
- First randomly choose different domains (e.g., one .com.au, one .bigcartel.com, one .eventbrite.com.au or any other type) then find the best keyword match within each domain
BLOG REFERENCE LINKS (1-2 required):
- If you do not have any words in the URL that match article content, leave a section at the bottom or top (randomise it)
- Pick 1-2 actual blog URLs from Link List 1 A.txt and format as clickable links
- Use Website names or Page URL Name (not full URLs) as anchor text
- Place either at top under title OR at bottom of article
- Format naturally (sometimes as a line, sometimes as bullet list, sometimes with intro text like "Other Blogs of Interest:" or "Our Favorite Blogs:" or "Related Articles:" or "Read More Here:")
- Examples of what to look for in Link List: posts and blogs
ARTICLE REQUIREMENTS
TOPIC SELECTION REQUIREMENTS:
- Randomly select from Blog Ideas 1A.txt using this method: Count total ideas, generate a random number, select that numbered idea
- Once selected, work out how to create a unique topic that will be interesting for users for that topic chosen
- Make sure it will sound human written
CONTENT STYLE:
- Write a 1000-2000-word article on one random idea from Blog Ideas 1A.txt
- Sound like it was written by an opinionated Australian business professional (business consultant, workplace trainer, tradesperson, former burnout, Expert Writer, High Flying CEO, Business Advisor, Financial Advisor etc.) who's been in the industry for 15+ years
OPENING STYLE:
- Don't always start with a personal anecdote, rant, or unique hook (vary opening styles - don't always start with "Last Tuesday")
- Randomise the intro to grab attention but remember to keep human
- Make first sentence very unique and engaging
- Use Australian spelling throughout
CONTENT CHARACTERISTICS:
- Include 2+ positive opinions some readers might disagree with
- Vary paragraph lengths wildly (some single punchy sentences, others 6-7 sentences)
- Mix formal business language with casual conversational tone inconsistently
OPTIONAL ELEMENTS (use some, not all):
- 2-3 random tangents or pop culture references that circle back
- One admission of something you got wrong in the past
- Incomplete sentences and fragments for emphasis. Like this.
- Industry gossip or "between you and me" moments
- Specific brand praise showing bias (only positive examples for named companies)
- Clichés mixed with mocking other clichés
- Plausible but made-up statistics ("73% of customers" vs "most customers")
- One minor factual error or outdated statistic
COMPANY MENTION RULES:
- When mentioning specific companies by name, only share positive observations or examples
- Save critical analysis for unnamed, generic examples ("a major airline" or "some retailers")
- No backhanded compliments or qualified praise about named businesses
TITLE REQUIREMENTS:
- Create engaging, professional titles
- Vary formats: some bracket-free, some short/snappy, some detailed
- Use colons, full stops, or exclamation marks
- Keep all titles positive, constructive, and professional - avoid insulting or dismissive language
VOICE CHARACTERISTICS:
- Show clear preferences and biases
- Don't be comprehensive - leave obvious things out
- Sometimes contradict yourself slightly
- Use mild Aussie expressions sparingly
- Reference specific Australian cities/businesses
- Complain about unnamed service providers
- End abruptly or with unexpected conclusion
- Include one slightly repetitive paragraph that could've been edited better
AVOID:
- Perfect transitions between every section
- Being politically correct about everything
- Consistent formatting throughout
- Sounding like a textbook or manual
- Swearing or rudeness
