Like any endeavor, SEO works best with clearly defined and articulated goals. If you only set vague SEO goals like “get more leads” or “get more traffic,” you will lack focus and direction. Vague goals fail to provide a map forward and feed into wasted time and generalist SEO work that will do little to help your mission. This article will provide an overview of why setting specific goals is essential and how it helps push you forward and direct your SEO efforts.

Over the course of my career I’ve looked at thousands of pipelines/funnels. Most are pretty bleak, they don’t have enough opportunities to achieve their goals.

The challenge is this: how do you find these new keywords no tool can provide and no competitor is ranking for?

Dear SaaStr: How Much Equity Should I Give A Key Startup Advisor? Here’s one way to think about it: Give them shares worth 1.5x-2x the amount of cash their time is worth … vesting over the time they deliver the help. Why 1.5x? Well, any valuation for a start-up is a bit artificial in the early days. And the shares are also illiquid, maybe for a very very long time.
