Custom ChatGPT: Men’s Clothing & Apparel Blog Writing

When my wife was laid off in early 2023, I scrambled to brainstorm options to supplement our income. After a few weeks of uncertainty, I decided to leverage my background in SEO to try my hand at affiliate marketing. And what an educational rollercoaster it has been over the past 12 months.

Choosing the right niche posed the most significant challenge initially. I couldn’t envision myself writing passionately day in and day out about topics that didn’t intrinsically interest me.

One silver lining from the pandemic was my introduction to men’s athleisure wear. Brands like BYLT Basics, Cuts Clothing, and Rhone flooded my Instagram feed and now dominate my closet. So, the niche chose me organically: men’s fashion and clothing.

I watched YouTube tutorials, followed creators in the affiliate space, and worked diligently to understand the core principles of affiliate marketing. Despite 20+ years working in marketing, this was one area that I didn’t truly understand.

I launched Gents With Swag to document my initiation into men’s fashion affiliate marketing. Full transparency: I don’t make $50,000 monthly, touted by most internet gurus. I’d be lucky if I hit a couple hundy. However, through countless trials, tests, and experiments, I’ve acquired invaluable hands-on experience. And while traffic ebbs and flows, the site attracts respectable numbers in aggregate.

As part of ramping up content production around a more refined niche and project, I’ve created several public Custom GPTs centered on the men’s apparel space that are free for anyone. The caveat is that you must already operate within the men’s clothing or fashion industry to derive value from them. Potential applications span well beyond affiliate marketing, too. They are great for general content creation and automating several tasks.

Topical Authority 

The primary function of this GPT is to create a topical authority map specifically for men’s fashion-related keywords. This is useful for understanding and organizing content in a way that aligns with SEO principles, particularly in the context of Google’s measure of topical authority. Topical authority measures a website’s credibility and expertise on a particular topic based on the quality and relevance of its content.

Topical Authority Map: Men’s Clothing & Apparel

  1. Core Keyword Identification: The user provides the keyword.
  2. Relevant Topics Generation: The GPT generates a table containing the ten most relevant topics based on this core keyword. Each topic is unique and semantically related to the core keyword. This helps in understanding the broader content areas pertinent to your core keyword.
  3. Subtopics Exploration: Once a topic is selected from the table, the GPT goes back to work and provides ten relevant subtopics, again presented in a table format. Each subtopic is unique and semantically related, offering a granular view of the topic.

The tables have three columns:

  • Title: This includes the keyword(s) and gives a simple yet descriptive title for the topic or subtopic.
  • Description: This provides a brief overview of what the page (or content) would cover, helping to understand the scope and relevance of the topic.
  • URL Slug: This suggests a short URL slug that includes core keywords of the topic, useful for SEO purposes.

The goal is to ensure diversity and uniqueness in the topics and subtopics provided, avoiding repetition or overly similar content. This approach is designed to cover a comprehensive range of information related to the core keyword, including popular and related search terms, which is essential for establishing topical authority in men’s clothing and apparel.

  2. Researching and Creating an Outline: Upon receiving the keyword, the GPT scans the top 10 search engine results pages (SERPs) for that keyword. This research helps the GPT understand what existing articles on this topic cover. Based on this information, the GPT creates a detailed article outline. This outline isn’t just a summary of what’s already out there; it also includes insights into what these articles might be missing. This approach ensures the outline can guide the user in creating content that’s both comprehensive and unique, enhancing its potential to rank well for the given keyword in search engines.
  3. Crafting a Headline: Finally, the GPT created a unique and engaging headline for the article, incorporating the core keyword. The headline is crafted to sound natural and appealing, avoiding any semblance of being generated by AI. This is essential for attracting readers and making the article more relatable.

The resulting outline is structured with H2 and H3 headings:

  • H2 (Main Heading): This includes the article’s main topic or section. Under each H2 heading, a summary explains what type of content should be included in that section.
  • H3 (Subheading): These are subtopics under each H2 heading. For each H3 subheading, a summary explains the specific content that should be covered under that subtopic.
