I was good at building SaaS, but terrible at marketing — so I built an SEO workflow

I’ve always been much better at building products than marketing them.

I can build a SaaS, ship features and solve technical problems, but when it comes to getting the first real users, I struggled a lot.

I tried things like cold DMs, cold emails, posting on social media, etc. Nothing really worked consistently for me.

So I decided to solve my own problem.

I built an SEO workflow that I could use to systematically find SEO opportunities and issues instead of randomly writing content and hoping Google sends traffic.

I used that workflow on one of my own SaaS websites.

And this is the result from Google Search Console:

The site has now reached around 75K clicks and 851K impressions in the last 10 months.

What I found interesting was that I could basically use the same workflow every time I wanted to launch/grow a new SaaS.

So I decided to turn that internal workflow into a public SaaS.

My current strategy is actually pretty simple:

  1. Build the product/SEO workflow

  2. Create SEO-focused public pages around the product

  3. Start getting impressions/clicks from Google

  4. Put a waitlist/signup CTA on those pages

  5. Use the early users' feedback to build the actual product/features

I’m especially building this for indie hackers and vibe coders who are good at shipping products but struggle with marketing.

Instead of trying to be everywhere on social media, I'm experimenting with making SEO the first acquisition channel.

I'm still early and definitely don't have everything figured out. But seeing my own SaaS grow using the workflow gave me enough confidence to make it public.

If you're also building a micro-SaaS and struggling with getting traffic/users, I'm curious:

What acquisition channel has worked best for you so far?

I built a software that turns any script into a whiteboard animation video — visuals, captions, and voiceover in one click. Here's how it works and what it actually costs per video

I've been building and testing this for months and finally packaged it up for others for who might be facing the same problem as me.

The problem I kept running into:

Every time I needed an animated/explainer video — for a product, a YouTube video, a training module. I had two options: spend hours or even days creating the whiteboard animation, pay a freelancer $100-$500+ and wait weeks. None of these felt right for anyone producing content at any kind of volume.

What I built:

VideoSpree is a Windows executable that runs locally. I paste a script, hit Generate, and it automatically:

Analyses each sentence for meaning and matches contextually relevant whiteboard visuals to each scene.

Generates and syncs captions frame across the whole video.

Lays down a voiceover, with options including voice cloning if you want to use your own voice, kokoro local inference, or via ElevenLabs.

Outputs a .fcpxml timeline file I open in DaVinci Resolve (free) to render the final video.

The whole pipeline runs on my own machine using my own API keys.

The actual cost per video:

~$0.2–$0.3 in API costs per 5 minute video, billed directly by the providers. That's it. No subscription, no per-video platform markup. If you're producing 50 videos a month, the difference between that and a cloud tool adds up to hundreds of dollars saved every month.

Who can use it:

Marketers creating ad explainers and social content at scale, educators turning lesson notes into animated videos, YouTube creators who want to publish more without spending more time editing, and agencies who need a fast internal production pipeline without headcount.

Video Quality: To be honest the quality is decent but not at par with animated videos created with professional softwares like premier pro, etcetera. However it is working for me since I have automated my YouTube content flow without any problems. Also I am improving the software by the day so feedback will greatly help.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments. If you want to see the product page, please leave a comment and I will DM you. Feedback (whether positive or negative) is most welcome.

I've been burned by hidden costs. Can AI actually find the most profitable loads?

The thing is that I run a small trucking operation. Just me. I book loads, manage drivers, handle the paperwork. It's a lot.

Every day, I sit in front of multiple load boards. Dozens of loads. I manually compare each one. Subtract deadhead. Estimate fuel. Factor in toll roads. Try to figure out which one will actually make money.

It is exhausting because I waste hours on math, and I still mess up. For example, I choose a load that looks profitable, and later find out that I forget about some toll or deadhead miles miscalculation. It accumulates very quickly.

I found numeo ai and it makes calculations of trip profitability. You simply upload your list of loads, and it gives you the most profitable option based on the net profit. Immediately…

This sounds perfect, doesn't it? However, I am not sure. Maybe the algorithm misses something? Maybe it doesn’t include detention charges in the calculations? Or maybe it underestimates fuel consumption for a particular route?

I cannot afford any mistakes or experiment with this and get losses. But at the same time, I cannot do everything manually forever

I am annoyed by the inefficient process, but I am curious whether this tool will actually work or not. Has anybody used it? Does it actually work?

[iOS] ReciReel — save a cooking video, get the actual written recipe out of it

Made this, so obvious bias, but the problem is real enough that I think it's worth posting.

Everyone saves cooking videos. Nobody cooks from them. The video is a terrible format for actually standing at a hob with your hands covered in something, and a lot of creators never write the recipe down anywhere at all.

ReciReel takes a shared video from Instagram, TikTok, Facebook or YouTube and writes the recipe out properly. Amounts, steps in order, timings, nutrition per serving including net carbs, equipment list.

It reads what's happening in the video rather than just the caption, which matters more than it sounds like it should, because so many captions are just "recipe below 👇" and then there's nothing below.

Free tier is 3 imports then 1 a month, so you can see if it's any good without paying. iPhone, iOS 18+, US store.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/recireel-video-to-recipe/id6763971435

If anyone here has tried the other apps in this space I'd be interested in what made you stop using them. That's more useful to me than praise.

Why do some AI video workflows create great visuals but weak results?

I’ve been experimenting with AI video workflows and noticed something interesting.

Getting an impressive individual shot isn’t that difficult anymore. The harder part seems to be connecting those shots into something that actually feels coherent.

Sometimes I’ll get great-looking clips, but the final result still feels random or disconnected.

I’m curious how others approach this. Do you usually plan the concept first, generate multiple variations, or keep refining prompts until you get something that works?

Webbon to capture prompt of any website using URL

I’ve been experimenting with recreating website layouts using AI coding tools like Cursor and Claude.

One thing I noticed is that getting the initial structure right takes a surprising amount of time. You need to describe the layout, sections, spacing, typography, components, and visual hierarchy before the AI has enough context.

I built Webbon to extract a structured prompt from a webpage, so I tried using that as the starting point instead of manually describing everything.

The workflow I’m testing is: webbon.xyz

Website → structured prompt → Cursor/Claude → initial implementation

It’s definitely not a one-click clone. The generated result still needs manual refinement, especially around spacing, typography, responsive behavior, and visual details.

But I found that starting with a structured description can make the initial scaffolding considerably faster.

I’d be interested to hear from other people using AI coding tools:

Do you manually describe existing websites to Cursor/Claude, or do you have another way of giving the AI the initial design context?
