SEO CONSULTANT FOR B2B SAAS

The B2B SaaS SEO consultant for the blog that used to work.

You inherited a blog with hundreds of posts. It used to bring demos. Now traffic is sliding, AI engines are not citing you, and no one on your lean team owns the fix. I do the work that turns it around, and I tie it to pipeline, not sessions.

who does Google rank and ChatGPT cite for [your category]?

Bill Widmer is a B2B SaaS SEO and AI search (AEO/GEO) consultant with 13 years of experience. He helps lean B2B SaaS marketing teams refresh decaying blog content, recover organic traffic, and get their pages cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Past clients include Semrush, Ahrefs, and monday.com.

HOW I HELP

The problem is not your blog.
It is that no one is tending it.

Most lean B2B SaaS teams do not have a content problem. They have an ownership problem. Here is what I take off your plate.

  • Your posts are decaying.

    Rankings and traffic slide as content ages and the SERP moves on. I refresh what is salvageable so it climbs back instead of rotting in place.

  • AI is not citing you.

    Your buyers ask ChatGPT and Claude, and your brand is not the answer. I structure your pages so the engines quote you as the source.

  • Your posts are cannibalizing.

    Five thin posts fight over one keyword and none of them win. I consolidate them into a single page strong enough to rank.

  • No one owns content.

    You run every channel alone with no dedicated content lead. I become the senior operator who owns the blog end to end.

  • An agency burned you.

    You paid for a publishing calendar that never converted. I report the demos refreshed pages drive, not the posts I shipped.

WHAT YOU GET

What a SaaS SEO consultant should actually do.

Not a strategy deck you have to go execute yourself. Done-for-you work, tied to pipeline.

AUDIT

Content audit and triage

Every URL sorted into refresh, consolidate, keep, or prune, ranked by revenue impact so we fix the pages that matter first.

REFRESH

Refresh and consolidation

Done-for-you rewrites and merges of the pages worth saving. This is where most of the fast wins hide on a mature SaaS blog.

NET-NEW

New pages, only where winnable

Net-new content only where an answer has real demand and you own no page to earn it. No content for the calendar’s sake.

AEO

AI citation readiness

Question-and-answer structure, schema, defined terms, and internal links so ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and AI Overviews cite you.

REPORTING

Monthly demos and citations

Citation tracking across all four AI engines on a keyword set we agree up front, reported next to the demos your pages produce.

HOW IT WORKS

Four steps, no twelve-month wait.

  1. Audit

    I inventory every URL and find what to refresh, consolidate, or prune.

    OUTPUT A prioritized content map
  2. Roadmap

    A 90-day plan ranked by revenue impact, not by word count.

    OUTPUT What ships, in what order
  3. Execute

    I do the work: refreshes, consolidations, net-new, and AI structuring.

    OUTPUT Shipped, citable pages
  4. Track

    Monthly citation and pipeline reporting across Google and the AI engines.

    OUTPUT A scoreboard you watch move

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Vetting a SaaS SEO consultant?
The questions worth asking.

01

How do I vet a B2B SaaS SEO consultant?

Ask three things. First, have they done SEO for a real SaaS product, not just an agency deck? Second, do they report on demos and pipeline, or on sessions and rankings? Third, will they tell you when refreshing your existing blog beats writing more? I ran SEO for Semrush and Ahrefs, the tools other SEOs pay for, I report on demos from refreshed pages, and if content is not your problem I will say so and point you elsewhere. If a consultant cannot answer those three, keep looking.

02

Should I hire an individual SaaS SEO consultant or an agency?

It depends on what is actually broken. An agency is built to sell you more content, because that is how the business model works. A solo consultant has no content quota to hit, so the advice can be honest. If your blog already has 200 to 2,000 posts, the fastest wins are almost always in refreshing and consolidating what you own, not publishing more. That is the opposite of what most agencies are incentivized to recommend. You work directly with me, not an account manager and a junior team you never met.

03

What does it cost to hire you?

Engagements generally run between $3,500 and $10,000 per month depending on scope, plus a fixed-scope audit if you want proof and a plan before committing to anything ongoing. That is a fraction of a $150,000 to $200,000 senior in-house hire, and you get 13 years of experience instead of one person learning on your budget. Tell me about your blog in the application and I will send exact numbers for the path that fits.

04

Do you only do AI search, or Google SEO too?

Both, because it is the same work. The refresh that makes a page citable by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews (fresh facts, clean question-and-answer structure, updated schema, tight internal linking) is the same work Google has always rewarded. Refreshed pages usually lift in both channels. This is not AI-only SEO. It is traditional SEO updated for the AI-citation era.

05

How fast will I see results?

First refreshed URLs ship inside the first 30 days. Organic traffic recovery on those pages is usually visible in 45 to 75 days, and the first AI citation lifts typically show up in 60 to 90 days, which is the window AI engines need to re-crawl and re-index. None of this is guaranteed. It is representative of what has been achievable, not a promise.

06

What makes you different from other SaaS SEO consultants?

I have owned the outcome, not just the deliverable. I built a content site to 500,000 monthly visits and sold it for $350,000, so I know what it means to have my own money riding on whether content converts. I have 13 years of receipts across 12-plus B2B SaaS engagements, including doing the SEO for Semrush and Ahrefs. And I run three engagements at a time on purpose, so the work stays mine and the advice stays honest.
