Crafting Human Level Blog Posts with Claude AI

Is Claude more human than Google Gemini and ChatGPT?

I’m always looking for understanding when it comes to AI.

For a long time, my need for understanding has been with Bard (Now Gemini), and while I have a good working knowledge of Gemini now, very much so…

I was shocked by my workings with Claude.ai

It is human…

…well, I know it’s not human, and I knows it’s just another LLM (Large Language Model), but…

It is very very human in its communication.

Now, this is great, but it also makes prompting of Claude different.

What’s interesting is that its responses are "very human"… it seems to avoid information overload and seems somehow more relatable.

Here’s how I see it…

1. Training data: Claude's training data might have included more emphasis on casual conversations and human interactions, leading to a more informal and down to earth style, which by my standard is what we are really looking for.

2. Safety principles: Claude specifically focuses on "safety and alignment with human values" during development of its model. This might involve including principles of politeness, conciseness, and emotional sensitivity into its responses. It’s a strange one.

3. Conversational techniques: Claude might utilize specific techniques like summarizing information, anticipating follow-up questions, and avoiding jargon to create a more natural flow of conversation… this is how I see it anyhow.

And with this information I want you to be aware…

Because it is human like, note that it still makes mistakes.

So, when you are doing this blog post with Claude AI, make sure you read what it says…

Now, let’s get into this:

Your Blog Post Prompts with Claude AI

So what I found was I like to start off the conversation with Claude (more than the other AIs) by explaining in small detail what the conversation will be about.

For this new conversation, I want you to think and act like an SEO who specializes in niche blog marketing, can you do this?

Then I ask for an outline for a keyword that I am looking to target with my new blog post.

If you can, I would like an article outline for the following keyword [INSERT KEYWORD]

Ater Claude gives you his reply I want you to read what it says, but mostly this prompt here will work. You have to remember that your AI, no matter what it is will not give the exact same reply every single time, it will always be a variation.

Ok this is cool Claude, what is the best way for me and you to create this, as a one off full article or section by section?

Next we talk to Claude, and say we like how it thinks and we agree. I do this to appease the AI (not that it might work), I just like to think about the future when AI potentially might be a lot smarter.

So this section is about keywords, and we might not get everything we want after one try.

I like the section-by-section idea also, but before we do, please make a list of related LSI keywords and NLP keywords that would fit well into this article.

After it has done this, let’s go and look to see if there are any other types of keywords that we can look into. Double check always to see if there are any missing parts from their response.

They are great, can you recommend any other keyword types that you think should be included?

Claude might give back a response that sometimes isn’t what you asked for… if this happens read the output, and reply what you want, like shown here:

Please do research to identify relevant competitors and targets to help inform our keyword understanding.

Next we ask Claude to update the outline with our keywords:

Can you update the outline for the article now ensuring to take onboard all of the latest information on keywords. Including where keywords should be used in each section is also beneficial.

When it does this we go stage by stage through our article, from introduction to final words. It’s better to get the content done like this and not a complete article output.

We now have an amazing list of keywords and an article outline, we should get started with the [introduction] of the article ensuring the integration of the different types of keywords including LSI keywords, NLP, competitors, and content gaps in a natural way. You should also include it follows correct SEO setup, no code though, to ensure it is easy usable on my website.

Make a note to go through section by section until you have your masterpiece.

Your Claude content will have to be edited… but I think you can manage that.

And there we have it…

A very very human blog post article with Claude AI.
