If you're a SaaS company, you want people to see and check out your amazing product. But, you don't want just anyone, you want to make sure you're reaching the right customers. What are some ways you can drive traffic to your SaaS website?
Content, content, content... content is the name of the game when it comes to driving traffic to your website. You've probably noticed that every single SaaS website you visit has a blog page. Try it for yourself! Go visit the website of your favorite SaaS product, and, if that product is somewhat relatively experiencing some success, they will have a blog. Blog pages give you opportunities for your website to show up in front of people whether through Google Search, social media, or simply people sharing your blog post because the content is relevant to their current state or need. You can also use these blog posts to target certain keywords in your industry to reach your ideal customer.
Landing pages are powerful. Combine that with having landing pages to specific users with specific offers then you've got a proven method to drive traffic to your website. Local business use landing pages to reach customers at a certain city or region. Online business, such as SaaS companies, can use landing pages to target specific users with specific needs and give them specific offers. For example, have a landing page that speaks to entrepreneurs who have started their online business but don't know how to drive traffic into their website. (Hint: This blog post is just that).
