Questions Rejoice Ojiaku answered

Map topics across the customer journey stages using informational, navigational, transactional, and commercial intent. Examine what content types appear in AI answers for each keyword, then structure your content with CTAs and semantic clarity to match both awareness-stage information needs and decision-stage navigation intent.

Think beyond the overarching topic—add modifiers and angles, such as seasonal variants ('makeup gift sets for Mother's Day'), product-specific angles, or business initiatives. This way you create new content without cannibalizing, because you're targeting related but distinct queries.

Include objective, intent definition, internal linking strategy, primary and secondary keywords, word count, competitor links, H1-H3 structure breakdown, and the specific prompts you want to rank for. Feed detailed briefs to copywriters so they have full SEO expertise and data context, not just vague instructions.

Using AI to write blogs is not inherently bad—the issue is insufficient input. Provide AI with detailed content briefs including tone of voice, brand guidelines, EAT principles, and SEO standards. Iterate on outputs, feed AI well-structured prompts, and you'll get publishable quality that doesn't trigger spam signals.

We are no longer in a world where traditional SEO is enough. Now we need to be the source AI pulls from, not just someone who ranks on the page.

Content briefs just because it's called a content brief doesn't need to be brief. It needs to be as detailed as possible.

It's not that using AI to write blogs is bad. It's just that our prompts are bad. We're not feeding it very detailed prompts that we should to get the best output.
