🔹 The Original Prompt

At first glance, this prompt might seem okay. But it's too broad — and that limits the quality of AI-generated results. Let’s improve it using prompt engineering best practices.

✅ The Improved Prompt

Generate 10 blog post ideas for a fitness website targeting beginners and intermediate fitness enthusiasts. Include a mix of workout tips, nutrition advice, myth-busting posts, and motivational content. Each idea should include a suggested title and a short description.

💡 Why It’s Better

• Specifies the audience (beginners/intermediates) to guide relevance

• Clarifies content variety (workouts, nutrition, motivation, myths)

• Requests short descriptions to add context and usability

• Improves format for easier planning and implementation

🔄 Use-Case Variations
