What you will get

An outline with a quick verdict table, sections on price, features, ease of use and support, who should pick each option, real-world scenarios, a final recommendation and suggested title and headings.

Why it works

Comparison searches come from people about to choose, so the prompt starts with a verdict table and ends with a recommendation. The criteria and scenarios turn features into decisions. Picking winners per use case, as the tip suggests, is more honest and more useful than a single winner.

Common mistake

The outline declares one overall winner.

Fix: As the tip says, name a winner for each use case. Readers want to know which one fits them.

Also watch for

The criteria are what you care about, not the reader. Add the reader’s main question to the audience line, such as “small teams on a tight budget”.
Prices and features go out of date. Add a “last checked” date to the outline and plan to check prices before you publish.

Try a variation: three-way comparison

Add a third option and ask for the verdict table and scenarios to cover all three, with a clear pick for each scenario.

Still not right? Reply with this

Write three scenarios, each a specific reader with a need, and say which option wins for each one and the one reason why.
