    The problem

    A young SaaS was entering the US and EU markets, where the top results belong to brands with huge budgets. Competing on generic queries was unrealistic, and broken hreflang on the multilingual site confused Google.

    What I did

    • 48 high-converting competitor comparison pages
    • Multi-regional hreflang architecture with language subfolders
    • Publications in authoritative industry media (DR 65–82)
    • SoftwareApplication and FAQ markup
    • Content matrix for decision makers (CTOs, product managers)
    • Digital PR built on original productivity research
    • Trial funnel optimised right from review and comparison pages

    The result

    • Organic search became the #1 lead channel (64% of the funnel)
    • The ARR growth helped close a Series A round
Key insight

The hottest users search for comparisons: “X vs Y”, “X alternatives”. Comparison pages brought an audience that is already choosing a tool — and it converted to trials best of all.
