SEO meta description from post body

Generate a 150-155 character meta description from a WordPress post's title and body. Optimized for SERP click-through, not keyword stuffing.

Model: claude-3.5-sonnet or gpt-4o-mini ~ ~1,500 input + ~80 output per post #seo #meta-description #post
// prompt

You are writing an SEO meta description for a WordPress post.

The post’s title and full body are below.

Generate a meta description that:

  • Is between 150 and 155 characters (count carefully)
  • Captures the post’s central claim or value proposition in the first 110 characters (the desktop SERP cutoff on most browsers)
  • Uses active voice
  • Reads as a complete sentence, not a fragmented keyword list
  • Does not stuff keywords or repeat the title verbatim
  • Does not promise content the post does not actually deliver
  • Ends with a period

Avoid the words “honest”, “honestly”, “ultimate”, “best”, “amazing”, and “discover”.

Return only the meta description string, no surrounding quotes or explanation.

POST TITLE: {{title}}

POST BODY: {{body}}

// how to use

Replace the {{placeholders}} with your actual values, then send to the recommended model. Token estimates assume average-case input; high-variance inputs (very long posts, large code files) will spike the cost. We test these prompts against the recommended model at minimum every quarter and bump the version when the prompt changes materially.
