Why prompts go wrong.
Each part exists because skipping it produces a specific kind of failure.
Role
Tells the AI who it's playing. 'You are a CRO strategist' beats 'help me with conversion.' Tone and depth shift to match.
Objective
One clear sentence: what you want at the end. Without it, the model gives tangentially-related output that 'sort of' answers.
Context
Business, brand, audience, history. The model can't read your mind — the more context, the less generic.
Inputs
URLs, products, target keywords, examples. Vague inputs = vague output. Be specific or be average.
Brevity
Concise vs Standard vs Detailed vs Exhaustive. Different modes produce genuinely different output structures.
Format
Markdown table? Bullets? Brief? Specify the format or get an unstructured wall of text every time.
Constraints
What NOT to include. 'No clichés.' 'No AI-isms.' This one line dramatically improves output.
