What If Your Homepage Was the Product?

Rows.com did something bold:

Rows original homepage

They replaced their homepage with the actual product interface.

New homepage - the actual product

No fancy headlines. No benefit bullets. Just… Rows.

Visitors landed straight into a live spreadsheet demo.

The result?

Conversion rate jumped from 11% to 19% (That’s a 72% increase).

Why This Worked

This isn't some A/B test gimmick—it’s product-led growth in action.

  • Rows is freemium

  • Everyone knows how to use a spreadsheet

  • Their market is huge

By skipping the fluff and letting people touch the product, the barrier to value disappeared.

Instead of saying “our product is easy,” they proved it—with zero friction.

How You Can Apply This (Even Without a Product-led Growth Model)

Most sites try too hard to “explain” the product.

But if you’re seeing decent traffic and low sign-ups, clarity isn’t your problem—friction is.

Start here:

  • Can you embed a product preview or sandbox version?

  • Can you demo a working feature above the fold?

  • Can you remove 1-2 steps between click and core value?

If you can’t go full Rows-mode, reduce the gap between landing and trying.

The closer the user is to value, the higher your conversions will climb.

The Takeaway

If you’re bringing in traffic and not converting, stop tweaking button colors.
Rethink the whole experience.

The SEO Power of a Table of Contents

Recently, a friend sent me their company’s website to audit their content. The first very glaring issue I found - they were not using a table of contents for their content.

However, the content was long-form: think 2,000-3,000 words for most of it.

If your content is long and lacks a table of contents, you're quietly killing your rankings.

Here’s why a TOC is a low-effort, high-impact SEO upgrade:

  • Anchor links show up in Google → more clicks

  • Long-tail keywords rank easier under clear subheads

  • Better UX = longer sessions = stronger ranking signals

Real impact: Pages with a TOC see more scroll depth, better engagement, and higher rankings across more queries.

Add one. You’ll thank yourself later.

How Keyword Research Turned Crontab & Chamaripa Into SEO Machines

Crontab’s organic traffic

Some brands blog. Others build keyword factories.

Take Crontab.guru. It's a side project by Cronitor that answers one very nerdy question:

“What’s the cron job for every X minutes?”

They built a page for every time interval—hundreds of tiny pages, one template.
Result? 120K organic visits per month... for free.

Minimal design. No flair. Just good SEO that quietly promotes their paid tool.

Chamaripa’s organic traffic

Then there’s Chamaripa, the elevator shoe brand you didn’t know you needed.

They rank for:

“How tall is [short celebrity]?”

Yes, seriously.

Each page:

  • Reveals the celeb’s height

  • Suggests they might be rocking elevator shoes on the red carpet

  • Then subtly pitches Chamaripa’s own lifts

210+ celebs. 5 languages. 20K visits/month.

All built from one template and a little audacity.

The Takeaway?

Crontab captures intent.

Chamaripa manufactures it.

Both win with:

  • Smart keyword research

  • Scalable templates

  • A willingness to get weird with content

Moral of the story: If your keyword strategy isn’t repeatable or uncomfortable…
you’re probably doing it safe. And safe doesn’t scale.

Visual Content Map: Scalable Keyword Clusters for SEO

Here’s a Visual Content Map showing how Crontab.guru and Chamaripa scale SEO traffic using keyword clusters:

  • Crontab.guru builds pages around time-based developer queries (e.g., every 5 minutes).

  • Chamaripa targets curiosity-driven searches about celebrity heights to drive product awareness.

Each cluster is built from a repeatable keyword pattern + simple content template = scalable traffic machine.
