Link to deeper content on your site.

Product advice worth stealing:

Launch when it's 'good enough', not when it's perfect.

Users tell you what perfect means anyway.

Hofstadter's Law: Everything takes longer than expected, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law.

Keep pushing. We're all in this boat.

Quick SEO tip that works:

Before writing new content, search your target keyword in incognito.

Study the content format that's ranking, not just the topics.

Structure > Keywords

Counter-intuitive product advice:

Your MVP should feel embarrassingly basic.

If you're not slightly uncomfortable showing it to people, you've probably built too much.

Usually works best when you see a real problem first.

Good sign: Finding people actively cobbling together messy solutions

Red flag: Having to convince people they have a problem

The best products solve existing pain, not theoretical needs.

To clarify, not difficult customers, but intensive learning conversations.

Those early deep-dive support calls taught us what to build next. Can't get those insights from quick transactions.

Startup tip most ignore:

Your first 10 customers should be a pain to support.

Don't just build exactly what users request. Understand the underlying problem they're trying to solve.

Let's Build!

That's it.

A refresh on an existing ranked page beats a new post 90% of the time.

Counter-intuitive SaaS advice:
Start with a stupid-expensive tier.

It forces you to define real value early, and you'll be shocked who actually buys it.

Document the mistakes.

Your 'here's how we messed up' posts will likely get better engagement than your wins.

Transparency > Perfection

Building software? Start with a waitlist, not a product.

Ship a killer landing page first. Let signups guide your feature priority.

Saved us months of building stuff nobody wanted.

Black Friday SEO tip:

Instead of competing for saturated 'deals' terms, add gift sections to your top-performing how-to content.

Lower competition, higher intent, keeps working after the holidays.

Hey Akash, founder & marketer here. Cheers!

Underrated SEO move:

Study how Google rewrites your snippets.

That's literally their A/B testing data, for free.

Google often rewrites meta descriptions to better match search intent and what they think users want to see.

Does this approach (and listed directories) only work for job board projects?

Remember when ad copy could just be a pun and call it a day?

Now we need 37 slides on customer personas first.

Fair question, this is from recent campaigns with our clients, not a formal study. Should've been clearer that it's our direct observation, not industry-wide data.

SEO tip that works today:

Add 'Updated [Month] 2024' to your top 3 performing posts.

Sounds too simple?

We've seen 15-25% CTR boost across multiple sites.
