Each of these catches a buyer who has already accepted they have a problem and is now deciding who to give money to. There are rarely more than twenty of them, and most SaaS sites are missing at least twelve.
01
Alternative and comparison pages
"[Competitor] alternatives" and "[you] vs [competitor]". Searched almost exclusively by people actively evaluating vendors. Written fairly, including where a competitor genuinely fits better, because a page that pretends otherwise loses trust in the first paragraph and the reader has three tabs open.
Typical volume: 4 to 10 pages / Highest conversion rate on the site
02
Use case and job to be done pages
Not "features", but the specific outcome a specific role is trying to reach. An operations manager searching for a way to stop chasing approvals in email does not search your feature names. These pages carry the language they actually use.
Typical volume: 5 to 12 pages / Built from customer interviews
03
Integration pages
"[Your product] [their tool] integration". Low volume individually, and in aggregate one of the most reliable sources of qualified demos in SaaS, because searching for it means the buyer already runs the other tool and has a real workflow in mind.
Typical volume: one per meaningful integration
04
Pricing and buying-committee pages
Pricing that answers the question rather than deflecting to a form, plus the pages the buyer forwards internally: security, implementation, migration, procurement. In B2B the person who searched is rarely the person who signs, and the page that gets forwarded is doing your selling.
Typical volume: 3 to 6 pages / Reduces cycle length
05
Category and problem pages
The head terms for what you sell, built once the decision-stage pages are live and earning links. These are the hardest to rank and the most satisfying, and going for them first is why so many SaaS SEO programmes show nothing at month nine.
Typical volume: 2 to 5 pages / Longest payback
06
Education, last and only if it earns links
Guides, benchmarks and original research, published because they attract the links that lift everything else, not because a calendar said to post weekly. One piece of original data from your product usage will out-earn a year of summary posts.
Typical volume: 1 substantial piece a quarter
