THE CHALLENGE

Great software.
No organic visibility.

Qooper builds mentoring software for enterprises — career development programs, DEI initiatives, leadership development, and employee onboarding. The product had strong adoption with existing customers, but organic search was practically non-existent.

With traffic starting at just 661 monthly visits, Qooper was invisible in a competitive SaaS category dominated by established players with years of content and link authority. They needed a fast, focused campaign that could build credibility and rankings in months, not years.

THE STRATEGY

Two lanes. One flywheel.

Authority Builder
01

Digital PR

We positioned Qooper's leadership as expert sources in mentoring, L&D, career development, and workplace culture. When journalists at business and HR publications needed credentialed commentary on employee development topics, Qooper's team was in their inbox with fast, quotable insights — earning branded mentions and high-authority backlinks that strengthened the entire domain.

Link Insertions

In parallel, we placed contextual links on relevant existing articles across HR, business technology, and workplace development sites. Each placement was selected for topical fit — the surrounding content aligned naturally with Qooper's core use cases. This directed link equity to specific product and use-case pages that were ready to rank with the right authority signals behind them.
