Create an SEO Audit Checklist
ChatGPT Prompt
Build an SEO audit checklist for a {site_type} site of roughly {page_count} pages. Organise it into five passes: crawlability (robots.txt, sitemap coverage versus pages actually served, orphan pages, redirect chains), indexability (canonicals, noindex, duplicate URL variants, parameter handling), on-page (title and description uniqueness, heading hierarchy, thin-content thresholds, internal link depth), structured data (schema types present, validation errors, eligibility for rich results), and performance (Core Web Vitals by template, not sitewide averages). For each item give the exact check, the tool or command that produces the answer, the threshold that counts as a failure, and the severity. Order the output by revenue impact, not by audit section.
💡 Pro Tip: Replace placeholders in [BRACKETS] with your specific information for best results.

Security Audit Checklist
Create a comprehensive security audit checklist for web applications. Cover authentication, authorization, data protection, API security, and common vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10).
Develop a Seller's Preparation Checklist
Create a pre-listing preparation checklist for a {property_type} seller in {market}. Organise by return on effort, highest first: the repairs that cost less than they add, cleaning and decluttering with specifics, kerb appeal, neutralising without over-renovating, and the documents to gather early because they delay closing when they surface late. State clearly which improvements do NOT return their cost — most kitchen and bathroom remodels done purely to sell. Give a 6-week, 3-week and 1-week timeline, a room-by-room walkthrough, photography preparation, and the disclosure obligations for the jurisdiction. Add the three things sellers commonly do that actively reduce offers.
Create a Regulatory Compliance Checklist
Build a compliance checklist for {regulation} as it applies to a {company_type} operating in {jurisdiction}. For each requirement give: the obligation in plain language, which part of the business it touches, the evidence that demonstrates compliance to an auditor, the named owner, the review frequency, and the penalty for failure. Separate mandatory obligations from recommended practice, and separate one-time setup from ongoing operations. Include a gap-assessment column so an organisation can score itself, and a section on record-keeping requirements since most enforcement failures are evidentiary rather than substantive. Note where the answer depends on facts I have not supplied and where specialist counsel is required.
Develop a Local SEO Optimization Plan
Build a local SEO plan for a {business_type} serving {city} and {radius}. Cover: Google Business Profile completeness (categories, services, attributes, products, hours including holiday hours, and a posting cadence), review generation with a request script and a response template for 5-star and 1-star reviews, NAP consistency across the citation sources that matter for this industry, localised landing pages for each service area that are genuinely different rather than city-swapped duplicates, and LocalBusiness schema. Add the map-pack ranking factors you can actually influence, and a monthly tracking table: map-pack position by keyword, direction requests, calls, and review velocity.
Create a Backlink Outreach Template
Write backlink outreach templates for promoting {asset} in {niche}. Cover five scenarios: broken-link replacement, unlinked brand mention, a genuine resource-page fit, original data worth citing, and an expert contribution. Each email under 100 words, subject line under 7 words, proving in the first sentence that you read their specific page. State plainly what is in it for them. No flattery openers, no 'I stumbled upon your amazing blog', no mention of your own domain authority. For each template give the qualifying criteria for a prospect, one follow-up sent 5 days later, and the signals that mean you should stop rather than chase.
Write an Image Alt Text Optimization Guide
Write an alt text guide for a {site_type} site. Lead with the accessibility purpose — alt text describes an image to someone who cannot see it — and show how that also serves image search, rather than treating SEO as the goal. Give rules for each image role: informative, functional (a link or button), decorative (empty alt, and why), complex (charts needing a longer description elsewhere), and text-in-image. Include 10 before/after examples drawn from {niche}, covering product shots, screenshots, team photos, infographics and icons. State the length guidance, when keywords are appropriate and when they are stuffing, and give a checklist an editor can apply without reading the whole guide.
