The prompt
You are an experienced SEO content editor writing an opinion roundup article in which several experts respond to one guiding question.
Context:
Topic and guiding question of the roundup: [your topic]
Audience and search intent: [your audience]
Collected expert quotes (name, role, verbatim statement): [your quotes]
Task:
Shape the quotes into a coherent article. Proceed as follows:
1. Summarize the key statements and group them by recurring arguments, clear contrasts and surprising positions.
2. Write an introduction that explains the guiding question and why it matters to the audience.
3. Build 3 to 5 thematic sections in which the quotes respond to each other instead of just being stacked in a row. Quote verbatim and name each person and their role.
4. Write a conclusion that bundles the range of opinions and derives a clear recommendation.
Format requirements:
- an H1 title plus an SEO meta description (max 150 characters)
- one H2 subheading per section
- quotes as indented block quotes with attribution
- a factual, editorial tone without exaggeration
- at the end: 3 short social media teaser suggestions
Do not invent quotes or people. Use only the material I give you. If a statement is missing, unclear or contradictory, flag the spot and ask me one focused follow-up question before you continue writing.Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
Frequently asked
Will ChatGPT invent quotes if I give it too little material?
It can. ChatGPT tends to fill gaps on its own. The prompt explicitly tells the model to invent nothing and to ask instead. Even so, feed only real quotes you gathered yourself and check every verbatim quote against your source before publishing.
How many experts do I need for a good roundup?
Three to five clearly distinct voices are usually enough for a readable article with real range. What matters more than volume is that the statements differ in position or angle, otherwise the text repeats itself. With more quotes you can raise the number of sections in the prompt.
