Core service

SaaS SEO that fills the pipeline, not the traffic report

We build search programs for software companies with a real sales motion — self-serve, sales-led, or both. The target is signups and qualified demos from people who were already shopping, not a bigger number in Analytics.

The problem

Most SaaS blogs are expensive decoration

The default SaaS content playbook — publish four posts a week about broad topics, chase volume, wait — was built for a market with less competition and cheaper capital. It produces traffic that never converts and a board deck nobody believes.

The problem is almost never publishing volume. It is that the content is aimed at people who are not buying anything. A person searching "what is workflow automation" is nine months and four job changes away from a purchase order. A person searching "zapier alternative for enterprise" has a budget and a deadline.

We rebuild the program around the second person, then use the first kind of content only where it demonstrably feeds the second.

You probably recognise

  • Traffic is up and to the right, but demo requests are flat
  • You rank for your brand and almost nothing else
  • Competitors outrank you on "[your category] software" and you cannot see why
  • Your best-converting page is a landing page nobody can find in search
  • Content costs $18k a month and nobody can attribute a single deal to it

What you get

Everything included in
saas seo services

01

Commercial keyword map

Every keyword your buyers actually search, sorted by intent and mapped to a specific URL — existing or planned. This is the spine of the program and the thing most agencies skip.

02

Money-page build-out

Category pages, use-case pages, integration pages, comparison and alternative pages. The pages that sit closest to the credit card, written by people who understand your product.

03

Supporting editorial

Long-form content that earns links and internal-link equity for the money pages. Every article has a job, and the job is written into the brief.

04

Technical foundation

Crawl, index, render, and Core Web Vitals work on your marketing site and docs. We work directly in your repo when you let us, or ship precise tickets when you do not.

05

Digital PR and links

Editorial links from the publications your buyers read. No PBNs, no directory spam, no link exchange rings that get you filtered six months later.

06

Pipeline reporting

A monthly view that goes keyword → page → session → signup → opportunity → closed won. If we cannot connect the work to revenue, we are guessing.

How we run it

The sequence, start to finish

Same order every time, because the steps depend on each other. Skipping ahead is the most common reason these programs underperform.

  1. 01

    Product and buyer immersion

    Two weeks of call recordings, win/loss notes, sales objections, and a real walkthrough of the product. We cannot write commercial content for software we have not used.

  2. 02

    Opportunity model

    We size every keyword cluster by realistic traffic, conversion rate, and ACV — then rank the roadmap by expected revenue, not volume.

  3. 03

    Fix the foundation

    Technical debt, thin templates, cannibalisation, and internal-link structure. Cheap to fix, expensive to ignore.

  4. 04

    Ship the money pages

    Highest-expected-value pages first. Usually comparison, alternatives, and use-case pages — the ones that rank fast and convert at 4 to 9 percent.

  5. 05

    Build authority

    Links and editorial depth aimed at the clusters that need topical weight to break into the top three.

  6. 06

    Compound

    Refresh, expand, and prune on a quarterly cycle. The programs that win are the ones nobody stopped.

A good fit if

  • Series A through Series C SaaS with product-market fit
  • ACV above $5k, or self-serve with strong expansion revenue
  • A category that people actively search for by name
  • A team that can ship landing pages without a two-month approval chain

Probably not if

  • Pre-launch products with no customers to learn from
  • Anyone who needs qualified pipeline inside 60 days
  • Companies unwilling to fund link acquisition

Questions

About saas seo

01 How is SaaS SEO different from regular SEO?
Three things: the buyer researches in public (so comparison and alternative queries are enormous), the product itself generates rankable surface area (integrations, templates, docs), and the sales cycle is long enough that last-click attribution lies to you. A generalist agency optimises for sessions because that is the only number they can see. We instrument the funnel first so the work can be judged on pipeline.
02 We already have a content team. Can you work alongside them?
That is our favourite setup. In-house teams usually write better product content than any agency will; what they lack is search architecture, brief discipline, and link acquisition. We take strategy, briefs, technical, and links — your team keeps the pen.
03 How long before this pays for itself?
For most mid-market SaaS, bottom-funnel pages start ranking in 8 to 14 weeks and the program covers its cost somewhere between month 5 and month 9. Anything faster is either a very weak SERP or someone lying to you.
04 Do you write the content or just tell us what to write?
Either. I write most of it myself and run a subject-matter-expert interview with your team for anything technical, bringing in a specialist writer I have worked with for years when volume calls for it. Some clients want the whole thing; some want briefs and a review layer. Both work.
