Act as a content strategist with deep expertise in [niche/industry]. I run a blog targeting [audience] in the UK/US. Generate 20 article ideas that: address real questions my audience is searching for, have clear SEO potential (include a likely target keyword for each), range from beginner to advanced topics, mix formats (how-to, listicle, opinion, case study, comparison), and would genuinely be more useful than what currently ranks.

Act as a world-class headline writer. I have written an article about [topic]. Write 15 headline variations testing: number-led, how-to, question, bold claim, curiosity gap, benefit-led, urgency, contrarian, 'for [specific audience]', comparison.

Act as a writing coach and editor. Here is a draft section of my article: [paste text].
