(Bonus: Free “Editing Checklist” cheat sheet below!)
✨ Why This Works
“AI content feels like eating cardboard. These hacks add the flavor.”
— My reader after fixing her “About Me” page (traffic up 70%)
🔥 Hack #1: The “3-Second Voice Transplant”
Problem: AI writes like a polite but soulless butler.
Fix: Paste your draft into Hemingway App. Then:
- Murder adverbs (highlighted in blue)
- Break up red-highlighted monstrosities
- Kill passive voice (green highlights)
Before:
“It is extremely important to meticulously optimize your blog posts for enhanced engagement.”
After:
“Want readers to care? Stop writing like a robot. Optimize this way instead:”
👉 Pro Tip: Aim for Grade 6 readability. Makes your content feel like a chat with friends.
🪓 Hack #2: Flush the “AI Cringe Phrases”
AI loves jargon that humans hate. Ctrl+F delete these offenders:
- “In today’s digital landscape…”
- “As an AI language model…” (🤮)
- “It is worth noting that…”
Replace with:
- “Look…”
- “Here’s the ugly truth:”
- “Spoiler: This doesn’t work.”
Example:
Before: “Utilizing this methodology will potentially enhance outcomes.”
After: “This works. Here’s proof:”
💥 Hack #3: Inject “Sensory Grenades”
AI can’t describe smells/tastes/feelings. You can.
Add ONE sensory detail per section:
- Sound: “Hear that? It’s your bounce rate crashing.”
- Touch: “This tactic is so easy, it feels illegal.”
- Smell: “Your CTR will smell like victory.”
Why it works: Triggers emotional memory → 42% longer page time (BuzzSumo data).
🎯 Hack #4: The “So What?” Hook
Most AI intros sound like this:
“Content marketing is important. This post explains why.” → ZZZ…
Fix: Use this template:
[Surprising Fact]? [Contrarian Take]. Here’s why [Your Audience] is wrong:
Example:
“AI will replace writers? Cool story. Tell that to my 6-figure blog. Truth: 90% of AI content SUCKS. Here’s how to fix yours…”
⚡ Hack #5: Steal Reddit’s “TLDR” Trick
Problem: AI rambles. Readers skim.
Fix: Add a “Too Long; Do This” box at the top:
### 🚀 TLDR
1. Paste draft into [Hemingway](https://hemingwayapp.com/?via=sarthak) → kill highlighted junk
2. Delete 3 cringe phrases (see list above)
3. Add sensory detail to paragraph 3
4. Rewrite intro with “So What?” hook (Readers will SCREAM thank you.)
