How Gleemo's SEO Grew by 2,537.7% in the Last 12 Months

Client Background

Gleemo is a rapidly scaling SaaS platform that provides comprehensive Influencer Management and Analytics tools. Their product is essential for brands and agencies looking to efficiently find, manage, and track global influencer marketing campaigns.

For a platform relying heavily on technical tools (like pricing calculators and fake follower checkers) and high-value product pages, Gleemo's success depends on two pillars: flawless technical health and market dominance for high-intent keywords.

The Challenges 

When Gleemo engaged MADX, the company faced dual challenges common to high-growth SaaS platforms:

Technical Instability Hindering Crawling: The platform experienced recurring critical errors typical of scaled content (e.g., duplicate titles/canonical issues, 404s, and Indexing Server Errors). These actively prevented Google from indexing high-value pages.​

Product Page Underperformance: Key revenue-driving product pages (like Influencer Search and Management) were under-optimized, failing to rank for competitive, high-value keywords like "influencer management software" despite strong search volume.​

Untapped Tool Potential: Gleemo's free tools (e.g., Pricing Calculators, Fake Follower Checkers) were not fully optimized to convert users or rank for long-tail keywords, representing a major missed opportunity for lead generation.

Our Approach

MADX implemented a rigorous strategy focused on technical stabilization, dual-tier authority building, and surgical content optimization.

• Technical Website Stabilization & Dev Briefing:
  
  • Conducted continuous Technical Audits (GSC, Page Speed, and Site Health).
  • Produced actionable briefs for the Dev Team, resolving complex errors like Schema Markup implementation, missing H1 tags, and 404 planning.
• Dual-Tier Authority Building (Backlinks):
  
  • Executed a "Premium" Link Campaign targeting core money pages (e.g., Influencer Search) to drive direct ranking power for commercial terms.
  • Deployed a high-volume "Support" Link Strategy to blog posts and free tools, creating a "moat" of topical relevance around the main product.
• Targeted Landing Page & Tool Optimization:
  
  • Prioritized and audited key Product Landing Pages and Free Tools (e.g., Pricing Calculators).
  • Optimized pages to explicitly target high-value, transactional keywords, ensuring competitive content length and structure.
• Strategic Content Foundation:
  
  • Executed deep Competitor, Content Gap, and Keyword Research to define a comprehensive content plan that aligned with user intent.

Key Takeaways & Lessons

1. Platform Health is the Foundation for Scale: Fixing core technical issues (like canonicals and 4XX errors) must precede content strategy to ensure high-value assets get indexed.
2. Targeted Optimization Delivers Fastest ROI: The highest return on investment comes from optimizing commercial landing pages and free tools that directly target transactional keywords.‍
3. Proactive Auditing Mitigates Growth Pain: Continuous auditing and clear communication with the development team is essential for preventing the build-up of recurring issues.
