You can further improve it by using better images and considering little denser layout.
So as far as I think, we all have been had by this well designed funnel. - First code out the part of the site relating to alternatives. About 80% there
- Next slowly start listing in startup communities that will like this project. I started with small subreddit , then Show HN, then some more startup communities before I go to indiehackers and producthunt
- Focus on organic traffic. Improve internal linking on my content which dramatically improves crawl rates
- Submit sitemap to google,bing and Yandex. Don't forget the latter two. They help big time.
- Next leverage some traction I will have gotten to reach out to atleast 50 people on linkedin. Offer them something for free or ask for a review for a free trial. I will make this as targeted as possible.
- Look at FB communities which can be a huge source of traffic. Entrepreneur, startups communities are all worth their time.
- If i was running a saas focussed on a specific audience, I would develop content on the site via those topics that may interest the audience.
- Build a community around the site. I have just coded a hacker news like option on my site under news and now will improve engagement via emails I have collected so far.
- I do intend to list at some competing sites but that is after I have some traction just for the backlinks.
Its not very hard. For content specific sites, organic traffic is still the best. Don't add cloudflare if you wish Google to crawl your site aggressively.
