Five Tips from a Professional Writer on Crafting Compelling Content

People enjoy stories. Which would you find easier to recall: a set of facts or a narrative that incorporates them? Writing content for a website requires you to tell a story in order to captivate readers with attention-grabbing marketing language and convince them to stick around long enough to hear what you have to say.

I Will Not Use AI to Write Posts

But Here’s How I Do Use It

For those who are wondering, I do not use Chat GPT, or any kind of AI robot to write posts. However, I have used it to generate ideas for posts, generate outlines, and create images.

Why will I use it for some things and not others? Simple. I don’t think machines should replace humans in writing. However, I do find it useful for creating outlines, brainstorming, and creating images.

I’ve tried using Chat GPT to write content, and I don’t like the content it generates. It’s mostly grammatically incorrect, which means I have to do a lot of proofreading anyway. So I’d rather write my content.

I have started using Chat GPT to generate ideas for blog posts and create outlines for blog posts, and even create images when I want to come up with a more unique image than the stock images I can find online. It helps save time in those areas, because it often comes up with ideas I wouldn’t have been able to come up with myself, and in the case of images, it creates better images than I would have been able to create myself.
