How a Bangalore B2B SaaS Company Built a $60K MRR Organic Pipeline.
Client: A Bangalore B2B SaaS company
Results
Up from 1,200 — roughly 15x growth in 10 months
Monthly recurring revenue attributed to organic search channel
First-page rankings from near-zero
Overall CAC reduction as organic share of new customers grew
The Challenge
The product solved a real problem but had zero content presence. Competitors were ranking for every relevant category and comparison keyword. Paid CAC at $280 was sustainable but not scalable for their growth targets.
Our Solution
Full keyword mapping across the HR software buyer journey; topic cluster architecture with pillar pages; technical SEO fixes; SaaS-focused link building via digital PR and partner integrations.
The comparison pages alone are closing deals. Prospects arrive at sales calls already knowing they want us.
Full Story
The Challenge: Invisible in a Crowded Category
This Bangalore SaaS company served mid-market HR teams with a workflow automation platform. The product had strong retention and enthusiastic customers. The acquisition problem was straightforward: they were invisible in organic search, and every relevant keyword was owned by well-funded competitors.
With 1,200 monthly organic visits and a blog consisting of product release announcements, the content foundation was essentially zero. Paid channels were working but at a CAC that wouldn't support the growth trajectory the board expected.
Our Approach
We mapped 3,500+ keyword opportunities across the full HR software buyer journey — from awareness-stage content like "how to automate HR onboarding" to decision-stage comparison pages like "best HR automation software for mid-market". We organised these into six topic clusters, each anchored by a comprehensive pillar page and supported by 8–12 cluster articles.
Technical SEO fixes came first. Crawl budget was being wasted on duplicate parameter URLs; Core Web Vitals scores were in the red; FAQ schema was absent across every page. These fixes were deployed in the first month to ensure the content we'd produce would actually be crawled and ranked efficiently.
Comparison and alternative pages — "vs. [Competitor]" and "best [Competitor] alternatives" — were prioritised for fast ranking and high commercial intent. These pages became some of the highest-converting on the site, with prospects arriving already pre-sold on the category and looking to choose a vendor.
Link building focused on HR industry publications, integration partner blogs, and an original salary benchmark report that earned organic coverage from 30+ publications upon release.
Results
Organic visits grew from 1,200 to 18,000 per month over 10 months. Page-1 keyword rankings grew from roughly 15 to over 800. The organic channel now contributes approximately $60K in MRR, and blended CAC has fallen 38% as organic has taken a larger share of new customer acquisition.
The Challenge
- 1,200 monthly organic visits — ranking for almost no non-branded keywords
- Competitors occupying all category, comparison, and alternative page rankings
- Paid CAC of $280 — sustainable short-term but incompatible with 3x growth targets
- Blog had 8 articles, all product announcements — no SEO value
What We Did
- Mapped 3,500+ keyword opportunities across problem-aware, solution-aware, and decision stages
- Built topic cluster architecture: 6 pillar pages each supported by 8–12 cluster articles
- Technical SEO: fixed crawl budget issues, implemented FAQ schema, improved Core Web Vitals scores
- Comparison and alternative pages built for every major competitor — high-conversion, fast-ranking content type
- Link building via HR industry publications, integration partner blog posts, and original salary benchmark data release
