First, the structure. The user wants H2s, lists, and a FAQ. Let me outline the sections. Maybe start with an introduction explaining why offline backup is important. Then H2 sections on methods, steps to create a backup, future trends, common mistakes, and the FAQ.
For the introduction, I should highlight the risks of online storage and the importance of security. Maybe mention increasing cyber threats as we approach 2025.
Next, the methods. Hardware wallets, paper wallets, and metal backups. Each can be a sub-section under an H2 like “Best Offline Backup Methods for 2025”. Need to explain each method, their pros and cons. Use bullet points for clarity.
Then, a step-by-step guide on creating an offline backup. Break it down into steps: choosing the method, generating keys offline, storing securely, etc. Use a numbered list here.
Future trends in 2025. Maybe quantum computing threats, regulatory changes, new technologies. This section should help readers stay ahead.
Common mistakes to avoid. Reusing addresses, poor storage conditions, not testing backups. Another list here.
FAQ section. Answer questions like why offline backup is necessary, best method for 2025, how often to update, recovering funds, risks. Keep answers concise.
I need to make sure the keyword “backup funds offline 2025 guide” is included naturally in the title, headings, and body. Use related keywords like cold storage, hardware wallets, security, etc.
Check for SEO best practices: keyword density, meta description, internal links if possible, but since it’s a single article, focus on structure and keyword usage.
Avoid jargon but still be informative. Target audience is likely cryptocurrency users concerned about security. Balance technical details with readability.
Ensure each H2 is descriptive and includes the keyword or variations. The FAQ should cover user concerns, which also helps with SEO.
Now, draft each section, keeping paragraphs short. Use examples where possible, like mentioning specific hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) but be cautious about endorsing brands unless necessary.
Check for flow: introduction sets the stage, methods explain options, steps guide action, future trends prepare readers, mistakes help avoid pitfalls, FAQ addresses doubts.
Word count: around 900 words. Let me estimate each section’s length. Intro: 100 words. Methods: 300. Steps: 200. Trends: 150. Mistakes: 100. FAQ: 150. That adds up to 1000, so maybe adjust. Maybe shorten methods to 250, steps to 150.
Make sure lists are easy to read. Use bold for key terms. Avoid markdown as per user request, but in the final answer, they want strict JSON with title and content. So in the content, use proper HTML tags for headings and lists, but in the JSON, it’s just text with H2s indicated.
Wait, the user said to return strict JSON with “title” and “content”. The content should include H2s, lists, FAQ. So in the JSON content, I’ll write the article with headings as H2: … and lists with asterisks or numbers. But the user might expect proper formatting. Let me confirm: the example in the query uses H2s and lists, so in the content field, I need to include those elements using appropriate markdown or text formatting. However, the user specified to return strict JSON, so maybe just plain text with headings denoted as H2, lists with bullets, etc., without actual HTML tags. Alternatively, maybe they expect markdown formatting within the JSON string. The initial query’s example shows using H2s and lists, so perhaps using markdown-like syntax in the content.
Wait, looking at the initial example, the user wrote “Include H2s, lists, FAQ.” So in the content, I should structure it with headings, bullet points, numbered lists, and the FAQ section. Since the response is JSON, the content will be a string with those elements formatted appropriately. So I’ll use markdown syntax within the JSON string for the content, like ## for H2, * for lists, etc.
But the user might not want markdown. Wait, the initial problem says “return STRICT JSON {“title”,”content”} ONLY.” So the content is just text, but needs to include H2 headings, lists, and FAQ. So perhaps in the content field, I’ll write the headings as H2: … and use bullet points with hyphens or asterisks. The exact formatting isn’t specified, but the user wants the structure. So I’ll format it with clear headings, lists, and FAQ questions as H3 or bold, but since it’s text, maybe just using lines and spacing.
Alternatively, maybe the user expects HTML tags in the content, but since it’s JSON, it’s just text. So I’ll have to represent the structure with plain text, using capitalization or labels for H2s. Wait, the example given by the user in Chinese (which I can’t see) might have used markdown. But the instruction says to answer in English, return strict JSON with title and content. The content should include H2s, lists, FAQ. So perhaps in the content field, use markdown syntax for headings and lists, even though it’s within a JSON string. That makes sense because that’s how you denote H2s and lists in text.
So, in the content, I’ll structure it with markdown:
## Best Offline Backup Methods for 2025
### Hardware Wallets
– …
But wait, H2s would be ##, H3s would be ###. The user asked for H2s, so each main section starts with ##. The FAQ can have each question as a ### or bold text, followed by the answer.
Yes, that should work. So the content will have markdown formatting for headings and lists within the JSON string.
Now, putting it all together. Make sure the keyword is in the title and sprinkled naturally in the content. Use variations like “offline backup”, “2025 guide”, “cold storage”, etc.
Check for plagiarism; ensure the content is original. Use up-to-date information, considering 2025 trends, like quantum-resistant algorithms, regulatory changes, etc.
Avoid fluff, keep it informative. Each section should add value. The steps should be actionable. The FAQ should anticipate common reader questions.
Finally, review for SEO: meta description in the intro, keyword placement, headers, alt texts (though not applicable here), internal linking (not needed here). Ensure the content flows well and is engaging.
Okay, time to draft the JSON with title and content as specified.
