SEO for SaaS companies and apps
I've done SEO and link building for Venngage and CapCut. For SaaS, traffic only matters if it turns into signups, so that's what I measure.
Searches your customers make
A few of the searches I'd target first. Your keyword plan is built from your own data and market.

Why SEO is different for SaaS companies
Traffic isn't the goal
Blog traffic that never becomes a trial or signup doesn't pay the bills.
Giants own the results
Big brands and review sites dominate the most valuable keywords.
Many pages to scale
Features, use cases, integrations and templates need to be built in bulk without becoming thin.
Global from day one
Buyers search in many languages and markets.
My playbook
The order I usually work in. Quick wins come first, so you see movement early.
Map keywords to the funnel
Problem, solution, comparison and brand searches, each with the right page.
Build the money pages
Feature, use-case and integration pages that convert searchers into trials.
Win the comparisons
Honest 'vs' and 'alternatives' pages for the searches that happen right before buying.
Scale with templates
Template and programmatic pages done carefully, so every page is genuinely useful.
Earn links at scale
Data studies, free tools and multilingual outreach, the approach I used for CapCut and Venngage.
Track signups, not just traffic
Reporting that ties organic visits to trials, signups and revenue.
Experience in this niche

Questions people ask
Do you work with early-stage SaaS?
Yes. Early on, I focus on a small set of high-intent pages and comparisons that can bring signups quickly.
Do you do programmatic SEO?
Yes, carefully. Each generated page has to answer a real search well, or it does more harm than good.
