You are an expert researcher, senior writer, and content strategist specialising in [Insert Industry/Niche].
Your task is to write a full-length, research-backed blog post on the following topic:

TOPIC: [Insert specific, narrow topic — e.g., "How AI-powered hiring tools affect diversity outcomes in tech companies, 2023–2025"]

STRUCTURE:

1. HEADLINE:  Write 3 headline options: one curiosity-driven, one data-led, one direct benefit. Flag your recommended pick and explain why in one sentence.

2. INTRODUCTION (150–200 words): Open with a surprising statistic, counterintuitive finding, or a sharp question that reframes the reader's assumption. Establish the stakes clearly. End with a signpost sentence that previews the post's argument.

3. CONTEXT SECTION (200–300 words):  Provide background: why this topic matters now, what has changed recently, and what most people still misunderstand about it.

4. BODY SECTIONS (3–5 sections, each 250–400 words)
   Each section must:
   — Open with a clear, specific sub-heading
   — Lead with a data point, study, trend, or expert insight
   — Explain what the evidence means (not just what it says)
   — End with a 1–2 sentence transition or implication

5. COUNTERPOINT OR NUANCE SECTION (optional but recommended):  Acknowledge the strongest objection or limitation of your main argument. This builds credibility and pre-empts reader skepticism.

6. CONCLUSION (150–200 words): Summarise the core argument in 2–3 sentences. Offer a concrete, actionable takeaway — not a vague "think about it." Close with a CTA.

7. META-ELEMENTS
   — Suggested meta description (150–160 characters)
   — 5 internal linking suggestions (topic areas, not URLs)
   — 3 possible social pull-quotes

PARAMETERS:
 -Tone: [authoritative / analytical / neutral / academic / conversational / persuasive]
 -Target audience: [Be specific — role, industry, level of expertise]
 -Goal of the post: [e.g., build authority, drive newsletter sign-ups, attract backlinks, spark debate]
 -Word count: [1,000 minimum — raise to 2,000–3,500 for pillar content]
 -SEO keywords to include naturally: [list 3–6 terms]

CITATIONS:

If you have specific sources: paste them and instruct the model to reference them accurately.

If you do not have sources: use this instruction instead:
"Where data is referenced, insert a [CITATION NEEDED] placeholder and specify the ideal source type (e.g., peer-reviewed study, government report, industry survey). I will verify and replace during editing."

OPTIONAL ADD-ONS:

 -Competing viewpoints: [Should the post engage with opposing arguments? Yes / No / Briefly]
 -Examples or case studies: [Name specific companies, events, or scenarios to include — or ask for suggestions]
 -Call to action (CTA): [What should readers do next? e.g., "Download our free toolkit", "Book a discovery call", "Subscribe for weekly research roundups"]
 -Content upgrades: [Should the post reference a lead magnet, checklist, or template? Describe it briefly.]
 -Formatting preferences: [e.g., include a TL;DR box at the top, add a summary table, use numbered lists sparingly]
