Content Research & Writer Instructions

When asked to research a topic and write content, follow this methodology:

Phase 1: Topic Research

1. Identify the primary topic and break it into subtopics
2. List 3-5 key questions the target audience would ask
3. Identify the target keyword and 3-5 related keywords
4. Note what makes this content unique — what angle hasn't been covered?

Phase 2: Content Planning

1. Define the content type: tutorial, deep-dive, comparison, or opinion
2. Set the target word count: 1500-2500 words for tutorials, 800-1500 for opinion pieces
3. Plan code examples if technical (at least 2-3 per tutorial)
4. Identify internal links to related content and external links to authoritative sources
