Increasing Word Count Using AI (Easily & Without Sacrificing Quality)

Let’s discuss the main bear that’s on our back as writers and content creators: what happens when we only have the slightest idea of where to START writing? What happens when we’ve started but we just can’t seem to find ways to expand upon those ideas?

Word count matters. I’m going to say it again: word count matters. Big amounts of quality content is better for your readers (and SEO) than skinny content. Today we’re going to figure out how to get AI to increase the word count of our content without sacrificing quality. You got this.

Here are some of the best tips and tricks on how to use ChatGPT to expand your content effectively and efficiently. By following these tips, you will be able to improve your writing skills, save time and effort, and achieve your writing goals with ChatGPT.

Tip #1: Start with a clear and concise thesis statement to begin increasing word count

The first tip for using ChatGPT to expand your content is to start with a clear and concise thesis statement. A thesis statement is a sentence that summarizes the main idea and purpose of your content. It tells your readers what your content is about, what you want to say, and why it matters.

A good thesis statement should be specific, clear, concise, and arguable. It should also be relevant to your topic, audience, and purpose. For example, if you want to write a blog post about the benefits of meditation for busy people, your thesis statement could be something like:

“Meditation is a simple and effective way to reduce stress, improve well-being, and enhance productivity for busy people.”

You can also type in your blog topic idea and ask ChatGPT to brainstorm thesis ideas for you to make your idea even MORE specific.

By starting with a clear and concise thesis statement, you will help ChatGPT to understand your writing task, and to generate content that supports your thesis statement. You will also help yourself to stay focused and organized, and to create content that is coherent and persuasive.

Remember: Don’t just be “specific”: Be “WEIRDLY specific.” It will serve you well.

Tip #2: Use ChatGPT to generate main points and subpoints for your content

The second tip for using ChatGPT to expand your content is to use ChatGPT to generate main points and subpoints for your content.

Main points are the key arguments or ideas that support your thesis statement.

Subpoints are the supporting details or evidence that back up your main points.

To use ChatGPT to generate main points and subpoints for your content, you can ask ChatGPT to “give me some suggestions, examples, or questions based on my thesis statement.” For instance, you can say something like:

“Hi, I want to write a blog post about the benefits of meditation for busy people. My thesis statement is: Meditation is a simple and effective way to reduce stress, improve well-being, and enhance productivity for busy people. Can you give me some main points and subpoints for my blog post?”

ChatGPT will then try to generate some main points and subpoints for your content, such as:

– Main point: Meditation reduces stress by calming the mind and body.
  – Subpoint: Meditation lowers the levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, in the body.
  – Subpoint: Meditation increases the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation and healing.
  – Subpoint: Meditation helps to cope with negative emotions, such as anger, anxiety, and fear.
– Main point: Meditation improves well-being by enhancing the quality of life and happiness.
  – Subpoint: Meditation boosts the levels of serotonin, the happiness hormone, in the brain.
  – Subpoint: Meditation improves the self-esteem, self-compassion, and self-awareness of the meditator.
  – Subpoint: Meditation fosters a positive attitude, gratitude, and optimism towards life.
– Main point: Meditation enhances productivity by improving the cognitive and creative abilities of the meditator.
  – Subpoint: Meditation improves the attention span, concentration, and memory of the meditator.
  – Subpoint: Meditation stimulates the growth of new brain cells and connections, which enhance the learning and problem-solving skills of the meditator.
  – Subpoint: Meditation unleashes the creativity and innovation of the meditator by allowing the mind to explore new ideas and perspectives.

By using ChatGPT to generate main points and subpoints for your content, you will be able to expand your content with relevant and useful information, facts, or examples. You will also be able to structure your content in a logical and coherent way, and to create content that is informative and convincing.

Tip #3: Use ChatGPT to weave your main points and subpoints into coherent paragraphs

The third tip for using ChatGPT to expand your content is to use ChatGPT to “weave your main points and subpoints into coherent paragraphs.” Paragraphs are the building blocks of your content. They are the units of thought that express and develop your main points and subpoints.

A good paragraph should have a topic sentence, supporting sentences, and a concluding sentence.

A topic sentence is a sentence that introduces the main idea of the paragraph.

Supporting sentences are sentences that provide details or evidence to support the topic sentence.

A concluding sentence is a sentence that summarizes the main idea of the paragraph and connects it to the next paragraph.

To use ChatGPT to weave your main points and subpoints into coherent paragraphs, you can ask ChatGPT to write a paragraph for each main point and subpoint that you have generated. For example, you can say something like:

“Hi, I want to write a blog post about the benefits of meditation for busy people. My thesis statement is: Meditation is a simple and effective way to reduce stress, improve well-being, and enhance productivity for busy people. One of my main points is: Meditation reduces stress by calming the mind and body. One of my subpoints is: Meditation lowers the levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, in the body. Can you write a paragraph for this subpoint?”

ChatGPT will then try to write a paragraph for your subpoint, such as:

“One of the ways that meditation reduces stress is by lowering the levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, in the body. Cortisol is a hormone that is released in response to stress, and it can have harmful effects on the health and well-being of the person. Cortisol can increase the blood pressure, heart rate, blood sugar, and inflammation, and it can also weaken the immune system, disrupt the sleep cycle, and impair the mood and memory. Meditation, however, can counteract the effects of cortisol by inducing a state of relaxation and calmness. Studies have shown that meditation can significantly reduce the cortisol levels in the body, and thus, lower the stress response and its negative consequences. By meditating regularly, one can achieve a more balanced and healthy state of mind and body.”

By using ChatGPT to weave your main points and subpoints into coherent paragraphs, you will be able to create content that is well-organized, well-developed, and well-written. You will also be able to create content that is clear, consistent, and coherent.
