How to Use Agents Effectively?

Last update: Nov 13, 2025 1 min read

AI Agents can help you complete specific tasks significantly faster and with better quality. However, to get the best results, it’s important to use them correctly.

Here are a few tips for working effectively with any agent.

  1. Activate the Right Agent

Make sure you’ve selected the most suitable agent for your task.

SiteGround AI Studio includes multiple agents, each designed for a specific area of work. This includes content creation, WordPress management, marketing, and more.

You can access all available agents from the Agents page. Each one includes a short description of its purpose and capabilities.

Once you find the right one, you can activate it by clicking on the USE NOW button.

  1. Provide Context

Give the agent enough background so it can understand your goal.

For example, if you’re using a content-related agent, mention:

  • Your topic and intended purpose of the text
  • Your target audience
  • Preferred tone of voice
  • Format specifics – email, web page, or else

The more relevant context you provide, the more accurate and useful the response will be.

  1. Guide the Agent Toward the Goal

Instead of asking for everything at once, break your task into smaller steps and guide the agent through the process. For example:

  1. “First, outline a short post on topic [TOPIC].”
  2. “Now expand it into a full version.”
  3. “Refine the tone to sound more casual and engaging.”
  4. “Add a closing line with a call to action.”

This helps the agent stay aligned with your expectations and refine the output as you go.

  1. Give Examples

If you have a specific style or format in mind, share an example. For instance, paste a previous post, upload a screenshot of a text you’ve liked, or describe a tone you like (“make it sound like Competitor X”). You can also provide links to existing resources that describe your desired output.

Examples help the agent adapt faster to your preferred style.

  1. Iterate

If an agent can’t complete your task or the result doesn’t meet your expectations, try again by modifying your prompt. You need to see this as a process – it takes a few attempts at the beginning before AI starts working smoothly and yields the results you expect.
