7 Prompts That Fix an AI-Built Site

AI-built sites tend to fail in the same handful of places. Here are seven prompts that target each one directly — copy them in as-is.

1. When the homepage feels generic

"Rewrite the headline to be specific to what we actually do — no generic phrases like 'take your business to the next level.'"

2. When everything is centred

"Left-align the body copy and cards. Keep only the hero and section headings centred."

3. When it looks like a template

"Vary the layout of each section — mix a wide feature row, a two-column split, and a stats band instead of repeating the same card grid."

4. When colour is everywhere

"Pick one accent colour and use it only for buttons, links and small highlights. Make everything else neutral."

5. When it feels cramped

"Increase the vertical spacing between sections — they should feel roomy, not stacked tight."

6. When the type feels flat

"Make the heading sizes jump more dramatically between levels, and tighten the letter spacing on the largest ones."

7. When it has no personality

"Suggest a display font and one structural detail — a gradient, a bold shape, an accent line — that would make this feel like it belongs to us specifically."

None of these require design skill. They just require knowing what to ask for.
