The Challenge
CloudPilot, a B2B SaaS company offering cloud cost optimization tools, relied almost entirely on paid acquisition. Organic traffic was negligible, with fewer than 500 monthly visits and zero inbound leads from search. Their website had minimal content beyond product pages, no blog, and the technical setup prevented Google from properly rendering their React-based single-page application.
Our Solution
Our first priority was fixing the rendering issue by implementing server-side rendering for critical pages. We then conducted extensive keyword research in the cloud computing and DevOps space, identifying 340+ keyword opportunities across the buyer journey. We built a content strategy around pillar topics like cloud cost management, Kubernetes optimization, and multi-cloud strategies, creating detailed content briefs for 6 articles per month. On-page optimization covered all product and feature pages. A targeted link building campaign secured placements in tech publications, DevOps blogs, and cloud industry resources.
