Building in public means consistently sharing your progress building your SaaS business on social media. This holds you accountable and opens doors. The narrator shares his poor early videos as examples - quality improves over time. He later made weekly video updates documenting highs and lows. This built trust and interest.
The narrator recommends trying different platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube to see what works. He prefers Twitter for building in public due to the authentic feedback. The narrator emphasises starting is key - the first posts will be bad but you learn. Consistently document struggles and achievements, even small ones, to build familiarity.
The core benefit of building in public is letting potential customers get to know you. As they see your journey and you interact in comments, some convert to paying customers. The narrator attributes much of his success to relentlessly sharing publicly. He advises: choose a platform, start posting progress no matter how bad, improve from feedback, and convert some followers to buyers.
.The narrator makes over $2,000 per day leveraging free Google search traffic using AI and SEO. Their strategy focuses on:
- Targeting high buying intent keywords - like "AI article generator" - that indicate users are ready to purchase. Low buying intent keywords like "AI generator" waste time.
- Creating comparison and alternative pages that leverage competitors' brand names and rank for valuable keywords like "[Competitor] alternative".
- Building free tools that rank well and give users a sample of the product. For example, free AI paragraph generators that then advertise the paid software.
- Performing crucial link building to strengthen rankings.
- Expanding beyond written content with YouTube and other platforms for video and product SEO.
.The narrator outlines two strategies for building backlinks: guest posts and niche edits (link insertions). In a guest post, you write new content for another site in exchange for a backlink. With a niche edit, you insert a link into an existing piece of content on another site.
To find sites accepting these types of posts, use search prompts like "guest posts [niche]" in Google. Look for niche sites with good metrics and traffic. Avoid generic sites farming paid posts.
To generate guest post content, use Journalist AI. For $0.80 per article, it can automatically create posts with images, videos, formatting, etc. Make the post high-quality and relevant.
A paid alternative is Ahrefs ($100+/month). It shows pages on sites sorted by links or traffic, so you can identify good pages to place guest posts. It also reveals broken links you can volunteer to fix with your own site link.
Overall, build both guest posts and niche edits. Use AI to automate writing. Manual outreach takes time, so consider hiring a VA. Journalist AI has a special discount for people who watched the full video.
