How to Use AI to Brainstorm Website Page Structure
A beginner-safe AI workflow for use ai to brainstorm website page structure, with a copyable prompt, source boundaries, missing-information rules and line-by-line verification.
By the end: You will run a grounded AI task using real source material, verify every consequential claim, and keep a reusable prompt plus human-review process.

Key terms before you start
These definitions make the steps easier to follow and help distinguish controls, files and concepts that can look similar at first.
What you need before starting
- Access to ChatGPT
- The real source material required for the task
- Permission to use that material
- A person who can verify/approve consequential facts
Step-by-step tutorial
Every step is shown below. Work through them in order and use each checkpoint to confirm the result before moving on.
Open a new ChatGPT conversation
Start a new chat so unrelated earlier instructions do not accidentally shape the workflow.
A clean conversation makes the task/source boundary easier to audit.
Treat the claim as unsupported; open the source yourself and correct/remove it.
Collect the authoritative input first
Prepare the real real services, locations, audiences and customer questions you are allowed to use.
Do not ask the model to reconstruct private/current facts that should come from a document, database or person.
Strengthen the source-only/missing-information rule, delete unsupported content, and verify the revised output. Do not keep a plausible guess.
Define the output format
Ask for a sitemap where every proposed page has a unique visitor question and specify headings/fields/order.
A defined structure makes comparison/review easier.
Restate the exact schema/headings and show a tiny structural example without adding fake factual values.
Run the prompt without asking for extra creativity
Send the request.
For factual extraction/rewrite, creativity is not the goal.
Restate the exact schema/headings and show a tiny structural example without adding fake factual values.
Check every number and date
Compare numbers, dates, prices, percentages and deadlines back to the source one by one.
These details are easy to alter accidentally and often consequential.
Treat the claim as unsupported; open the source yourself and correct/remove it.
Check every proper name and product/service name
Compare spelling and identity with the source.
A plausible wrong name is still wrong.
Strengthen the source-only/missing-information rule, delete unsupported content, and verify the revised output. Do not keep a plausible guess.
Remove duplicate page jobs
If two proposed pages answer the same question, merge or redefine them.
More pages are not automatically better information architecture.
Restate the exact schema/headings and show a tiny structural example without adding fake factual values.
Turn accepted sitemap into real CMS pages
After human approval, create the page shells in WordPress before asking AI for long copy.
This keeps architecture separate from prose generation.
Re-run the same verification after every material revision. Human review is not a one-time step.
Record reusable prompt only after it works
Save the prompt template plus required inputs and review checks.
A repeatable workflow includes validation, not just reusable wording.
Re-run the same verification after every material revision. Human review is not a one-time step.
Re-test when source/model/process changes
If the input format, policy, model or business process changes, run validation examples again.
A workflow proven on one version is not permanently proven.
Strengthen the source-only/missing-information rule, delete unsupported content, and verify the revised output. Do not keep a plausible guess.
If a factual sentence cannot be traced to the allowed source, remove it or mark the information missing.
Concrete examples
Copyable example
Using the BUSINESS INFO below, propose a website sitemap.
Required pages: Home, About, Contact.
For every additional page include:
- page title
- the unique visitor question it answers
- source fact that justifies the page
Do not invent services, locations, staff or products.
Do not write page copy yet.
