10 Ways to Get Traffic With $0 (That Actually Work): Look, I get it. You're tired of the same old SEO advice. I was too. In 2013, my ecom site had zero authority. Even less traffic. Every "expert" kept saying: optimize this, build that, create more content. But something wasn't clicking. Then I discovered what really matters - and it's not what you think. Let me clear up some myths first: - You don't need fancy tools - Your UX isn't the problem  - Technical SEO isn't holding you back Instead, I learned to "borrow" authority from bigger sites. I found ways to get traffic that felt almost like cheating (but they're 100% legit). These strategies changed everything for my site. The best part? They didn't cost me a dime. Here's what made the biggest impact: - Using Reddit without getting banned - Turning Quora answers into traffic machines - Hijacking competitor FAQs - A YouTube description hack - The "broken backlink" goldmine No sugar-coating: this takes work. You won't see results overnight. But neither did I. It took me months of testing to figure out what actually works. I failed a lot. Learned even more. Now I'm sharing everything I discovered, the complete playbook that took me from zero to consistent traffic. No fluff. No theory. Just practical strategies you can start using today. The full breakdown is in the carousel 👉 And yes, these still work in 2025. Just used them last month to help a client go from 0 to his first 1k organic pageviews. — Want the same results without you doing the work? 🚨👉 𝐃𝐌 𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐀𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐭!

When our search traffic started dropping about two years ago, we doubled down on SEO: did more primary research, published more content, updated content more frequently. And still, our Google traffic didn't grow. At first, it was probably just the algorithm & competition muting our extra effort. But as gen AI rolled out in search, it became clear: search engines becoming answer engines were killing the economics of educational SEO. Our blog content had always been a key pipeline driver. It generated search traffic and product signups. More importantly, it built up our domain authority up & helped us rank product-related content. We had a limitless amount of content we could create. Our 100+ integrations gave us an endless amount of topics. We published 5x/week at our peak.   But now, AI started giving those answers directly, without ever sending them to our site. Two quarters ago, we made a hard-right shift. We stopped fighting for Google scraps. And started showing up where conversations were actually happening. 👉 I went all-in on LinkedIn publishing. We began planning a small number of multi-format, multi-channel campaigns. We did more on other social sites, especially Youtube. But measuring impact? That’s where things got tricky. Getting someone to click from social to our website: not easy. The traditional marketing attribution models didn't capture the full picture.   So we built a new approach: 1. 𝗢𝗻-𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀. Impressions, engagement, follower growth. These tell us what content is resonating. It’s hard to prove that reach & engagement drive business, but it certainly gives direction on what content and topics might inspire action. 2. 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. We still link to other content (events, research reports, surveys, dashboard templates, etc). We have no shortage of offers that can drive a conversion and we don’t have a problem creating social content that highlights those offers in interesting ways. 3. 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. We ask everyone who signups for our product, “How did you hear about us?”  It’s not perfect since they could lie on that form just to get past it, but the data is pretty consistent month over month. (If you want to see this data, follow me and click the bell. I’ll be sharing it.) 4. 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵. Most readers don’t engage publicly on social media. But they remember. And weeks or months later, they show up in our CRM via branded search or a direct visit. Today, we get about ~27% of our signups from social media. So yeah, the shift worked. Not because social publishing replaces SEO. It's actually harder. But because it does something SEO no longer can: build preference before someone is even looking. PS.

What's changed in ecom SEO? Google turned search results into a shopping mall. After analyzing 35,000+ shopping queries, here's what happened in 2025: - AI Overviews replaced traditional product grids - Image packs jumped from 60% to 90% of searches - People Also Ask features increased while Reddit/forum content declined - Videos are getting pushed out by visual content Here's what to do: 1. Search your products in ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI Mode - screenshot every mention or absence 2. Update your top product images with better alt text and lifestyle shots showing products in use 3. Add structured data markup to all product images 4. Convert your buying guides into FAQ format with clear questions and answers 5. Create "People Also Ask" style questions on product pages 6. Build comparison content using "X vs Y vs Z" format 7. Track your brand mentions in AI Overviews, not just organic rankings 8. Add schema markup for FAQs, products, and reviews 9. Focus on structured, scannable content over long-form descriptions 10. Optimize for conversational queries like "help me find" vs "what is the best" The brands winning aren't the ones with the best products they're the ones with the most AI-friendly content structure. P.S. At Taco, we help you rank on LLM's. If you need an audit on how you are ranking, dm me with the word 'Search' and we'll conduct an entire site audit. P.P.S.

Most SaaS founders ignore SEO on LinkedIn. They write posts but don’t get discovered. That means fewer profile visits. No inbound leads. And missed chances with decision-makers searching for solutions you already offer. Here’s how to fix it: • Use keywords naturally • Optimize your headline • Write for humans first • Target pain points decision-makers care about Don’t just post more. Post smarter. Content that ranks brings leads in 24/7. Set up your LinkedIn to attract clients Instead of chasing them. Want to make your LinkedIn a lead magnet?

🚨 Day 2 Recap – Indexing Day @ Google Search Central Deep Dive 2025 Today was all about the technical backbone of SEO. And honestly… indexing is more complex (and critical) than most people realize. 🔍 Here are some highlights that stood out: ✅ robots.txt is voluntary — not enforced, but still important to guide Googlebot. ✅ Crawl budget matters. Focus on quality URLs, not quantity. ✅ 6 key steps in indexing — and errors in HTML/JS can break everything. ✅ Sites moving from static HTML to JS-heavy pages often see traffic drops if not optimized. ✅ Structured data using JSON-LD improves search understanding & click-throughs. ✅ Case study: Fixing JavaScript issues increased traffic from 100K to 1.2M clicks! 🚀 Also: – Soft 404s are silent traffic killers. – Proper status codes, content positioning, and tokenization really matter. – Broken scripts? They can disqualify your page from becoming canonical. – Even image indexing depends on tags like <img src> and alt. – Google Trends now has an API alpha version for deeper data access! And yes—Search Console’s URL Inspection Tool is still your best friend. It’s not just about being live… it’s about being properly indexed. Biggest takeaway of the day? Good content can’t rank if it’s never indexed. And poor technical setup is often the hidden reason behind flatlining SEO performance. Excited for Day 3. More insights to come. 🚀 #SearchCentralLive #SCLBKK25 #TechnicalSEO #IndexingDay #GoogleSearch #SEO2025 #DigitalMarketing #SearchInnovation #RyanKristoMuljono

Running a SaaS under $5M ARR? Don't spend a dime more on ads. What if there was a way to instantly get more users without spending more on ads? The answer is simple - test your landing pages. Most SaaS companies test different creative and copy in their ads. But forget to ever test their website. Test various versions of your homepage. Test different funnels. A/B test different messaging and assets. And you'll get new users instantly.
