By Richard D. Harroch and Dominique A. Harroch
Getting more traffic to your website is one of the most important objectives for any business, startup, or entrepreneur. Website traffic means more visibility, more potential customers, and more opportunities to convert visits into revenue. But with so many competitors and constant changes in search engine optimization (SEO), content trends, and digital marketing tactics, attracting consistent traffic can feel overwhelming.
This is where ChatGPT can be helpful. Whether you're a solo entrepreneur or a marketing team leader, OpenAI's powerful AI assistant can help you brainstorm, plan, write, and optimize your website content and strategy in ways that drive traffic. With the right prompts, ChatGPT can become a virtual assistant that can research your market, suggest improvements, and generate drafts of the kind of content your audience (and Google) loves.
In this article, we'll share five high-impact ChatGPT prompts—along with sample variations—to help you grow your site's traffic. These prompts are practical, easy to implement, and designed to give you ideas and tools you can use right away. Naturally, we used ChatGPT for insights and research assistance for this article.
1. Identify High-Impact Keywords and SEO Topics
SEO remains one of the most effective ways to attract organic traffic. But it starts with targeting the right keywords—phrases your potential visitors are searching for. ChatGPT can help you discover keyword ideas, group them into topics, and even suggest related questions that people ask.
Example Prompt:
'I run a website that sells natural skincare products. Suggest 15 high-volume, low-competition SEO keywords I could target, and organize them into five blog post topic clusters.'
Additional Sample Prompts:
2. Write Blog Posts That Rank and Convert
Once you've identified strong SEO topics, ChatGPT can help you outline and write blog content that's both optimized for search engines and valuable to readers. From headlines and intros to structure and calls to action, you can co-create content that performs well and supports your broader marketing goals.
Example Prompt:
'Write an outline and 500-word introduction for a blog post titled '10 Reasons to Switch to Natural Skincare Products.' Make it engaging, informative, and optimized for SEO.'

3. Improve On-Page SEO and User Engagement
Optimizing on-page elements like meta descriptions, headings, image alt text, and internal links can make a major difference in how search engines rank your content—and how users engage with it. ChatGPT can help fine-tune these details so your pages are more visible and inviting.
Example Prompt:
'Here's the first paragraph of a blog post about productivity apps. Can you improve it for readability and SEO, and suggest a meta description, slug, and alt text for the main image?'
Additional Sample Prompts:
4. Repurpose Content Across Channels
Publishing a blog post is just the beginning. Smart marketers extend the value of their content by repurposing it into other formats—social media posts, email newsletters, video scripts, and more. ChatGPT can help you do this efficiently while maintaining a consistent message and brand voice.
Example Prompt:
'I wrote a blog post titled 'How to Start a Consulting Business' found at [ Can you turn this into a five-part email series and three LinkedIn posts?'

5. Analyze and Improve Underperforming Pages
Sometimes your existing content isn't driving traffic—but that doesn't mean it's a lost cause. ChatGPT can help you review underperforming pages and suggest ways to refresh, optimize, or reposition them for better performance. This includes updating content, fixing SEO issues, or refining the angle to match current trends.
Example Prompt:
'I have a blog post titled 'Best Productivity Tools for 2021' that used to get traffic but doesn't anymore. Can you help me rewrite and re-optimize it for current trends?'
