Is my product even worth SEOing for?

I created an app for a very specific purpose:

In germany when renting an apartment, 95% of the time you need a specific document called "Mieterselbsauskunft". Basically just a sheet with personal information, adress, employer, salary etc.

Creating this document is a surprisingly big pain in the ass. Most templates you find online are badly made and filling it out in a PDF editor is cumbersome, especially when you have to do it multiple times.

Thats why I made an app, that makes it easier and quicker - turning 30 minute process into a 2 minute one. I believe it is really useful to people acutely in need of this document.

I think the best approach for marketing is to create a webpage and get it ranking highly for the keywords that people type when searching for this document template. I scrapped together a webpage with AI (lovable) and populated it with info text, FAQ, images and comparsions. And of course a link to the App.

Problem: High ranking competition. Established flat-rent websites publish their own (honestly quite badly made) templates that are referenced a lot and have a massive amounts of backlinks.

So I wonder if I even have a shot getting the app seen through search. The economics of it: The App is free. The first document is free. After that it's 1,99€ for lifetime access. My guess is that 25-50% the people that make the first PDF would buy the lifetime access, because it does safe a lot of time and headache.

Essentially my two questions:

  1. As a SEO-noob, what should I focus on to get my product somewhat seen?
  2. Is it even worth it considering the competition and economics of the app?

Thanks for all input :)

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

7 SEO Lessons I've Learned in 2025 (So Far) - From Building a Competitor Analysis Tool

Hey r/SEO , I've been spending a lot of time lately building a competitor keyword research tool (more on that below!), and it's really forced me to dig deep into how SEO works today . Here are some of the key lessons I've learned – hopefully, they're helpful to you too: Keyword Gaps Are Gold: It's not enough to just know what keywords your competitors rank for. You need to know what they rank for that you don't . This is where the real opportunities lie. Focusing on these "gap" keywords has been a game-changer for my own site. (This is actually why I built the tool – to make finding these gaps easier). Relevance > Volume (Sometimes): High search volume is great, but relevance is even more important. A keyword with 100 searches per month that's perfectly aligned with your niche and audience is often more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 searches that's only tangentially related. I've seen much better results targeting tho...
