Okay, I need to write a 900-word SEO article about depositing AVAX on Compound. Let me start by understanding the user’s intent. They probably want a step-by-step guide, so I should structure it with clear H2 headings.

First, the title should include the main keyword “Deposit AVAX on Compound Guide”. Maybe make it a bit more engaging, like “How to Deposit AVAX on Compound: A Step-by-Step Guide”. Then, an introduction explaining what Compound is and why someone would deposit AVAX there. Mention benefits like earning interest or using it as collateral.
Next, the prerequisites section. Users will need a wallet that supports AVAX and Compound, like MetaMask. They’ll also need some AVAX tokens and ETH for gas fees. Maybe list these as bullet points under an H2.
Then, the step-by-step guide. Break it down into steps: connecting the wallet to Compound, approving AVAX for deposit, confirming the transaction, and checking the deposit status. Each step should be an H3 under the main H2. Include details like navigating to the Compound interface, selecting AVAX, entering the amount, etc.
After that, maybe a section on managing the deposit, like how to withdraw or monitor interest. Also, common issues they might face, such as transaction delays or insufficient gas, with solutions.
FAQ section is important. Anticipate questions like “Is depositing AVAX on Compound safe?” or “What are the risks?”. Answer each concisely. Use H2 for the FAQ heading and H3 for each question.
I need to ensure the keyword “deposit AVAX on Compound guide” is included in the title, headings, and naturally throughout the content. Use related keywords like “AVAX deposit”, “Compound Finance”, “earn interest” for SEO.
Check that the article is around 900 words. Use lists where possible for readability. Make sure the language is clear and instructions are easy to follow. Avoid technical jargon as much as possible, but some is necessary. Also, include tips on gas fees and security practices.
Wait, the user specified STRICT JSON with title and content. So after drafting, I need to format it into JSON without any markdown. Ensure that the content includes the H2s, lists, and FAQ as specified. Double-check for any markdown syntax and remove it, replacing with appropriate HTML tags if needed, but the user didn’t mention HTML. Wait, the user said to return strict JSON with title and content. The content should have H2s, lists, and FAQ. But since it’s JSON, maybe just use plain text with headings indicated as H2, but how? The user might expect the content to include the headings as part of the text, using ## for H2 or something, but the example response uses H2s in the content. Wait, looking at the example, the assistant used headings like “Prerequisites for Depositing AVAX on Compound” as H2, then steps as H3. But in the JSON, it’s just plain text with those headings written out. So I should structure the content with the headings as part of the text, using clear labels like H2: … and then the content under each. But the user might not want markdown, so just write the headings in plain text, maybe using bold or something. Wait, the user’s example response uses H2s as part of the content text without markdown. For example:
“content”: “## What is Compound?…nn## Prerequisites…nn1. …nn## Step-by-Step Guide…nn### Step 1…nn…”
But in JSON, those would be part of the string. So I need to include the markdown-like syntax in the content string. However, the user might not want markdown. Wait, the initial instruction says “Include H2s, lists, FAQ.” So perhaps the content should have headings formatted as H2, H3, etc., using markdown. But the user wants strict JSON, so the content is a string that includes markdown formatting. Alternatively, maybe the user expects plain text with headings indicated by text like “H2: …”. But looking at the example given by the user in the problem statement, the assistant’s response includes markdown in the content. For example:
{“title”:”How to Deposit AVAX on Compound: A Step-by-Step Guide”,”content”:”## What is Compound?…nn## Prerequisites…nn1. …nn## Step-by-Step Guide…nn### Step 1…nn…”}
So the content includes markdown headings. Therefore, I should format the content with markdown for H2, H3, lists, etc., within the JSON string.
So, structure the content with:
– Introduction (H2)
– Prerequisites (H2 with a list)
– Step-by-Step Guide (H2 with H3 subsections)
– Managing Your Deposit (H2)
– Common Issues (H2 with list)
– FAQ (H2 with H3 questions)
Each section needs to be clearly marked with ## for H2 and ### for H3. Lists should use asterisks or numbers. FAQ questions can be H3 with answers below.
Make sure the keyword is in the title and appears a few times in the content naturally. Include variations and related terms. Keep paragraphs short for readability. Check for any possible errors in the steps, like correct order of connecting wallet, approving, depositing. Mention gas fees and confirmation times. Also, security tips like double-checking contract addresses.
Finally, ensure the JSON is valid, with proper escaping of quotes if needed. But since the content uses markdown, ensure newlines are represented with n and any internal quotes are escaped. However, in the example, the user’s assistant didn’t escape quotes, so maybe it’s acceptable as long as the JSON is valid. Use double quotes for JSON keys and values, and escape any internal double quotes in the content with backslashes.
Now, draft each section, keeping an eye on word count. Aim for around 900 words. Let me outline the sections and estimate their lengths:
– Title: 1 line
– Intro: ~100 words
– Prerequisites: ~100 words
– Step-by-Step Guide: ~400 words (4 steps, each ~100)
– Managing Your Deposit: ~100 words
– Common Issues: ~100 words
– FAQ: ~100 words (3-4 questions)
Total roughly 900. Adjust as needed.
Include lists in prerequisites (bulleted), steps (numbered), common issues (bulleted), FAQ (questions as H3, answers as paragraphs).
Make sure to answer the FAQs clearly, addressing safety, risks, fees, etc.
Avoid promotional language, keep it informative. Use active voice. Check for keyword density without overstuffing.
Once the content is drafted, format it into the JSON structure with “title” and “content” as keys, ensuring the content string includes the markdown formatting properly escaped if necessary.
