How the Fxck SEO Podcast

Since launch in 2020, copy.ai has grown to 8M users in the fierce battle for AI content writing tools.

But back in 2022, when they began investing in SEO, search volumes for their core keywords (e.g. "AI content generator") were negligible if they existed at all.

Over that year, as we are all well aware, there was a rapid wave in demand for AI copywriting tools.

The team at copy.ai correctly predicted that demand. And as a result, they were the first to build an SEO strategy to capture it.And they won.

Their big money maker? A cluster of tools pages that now brings in way over 150,000 high-intent visitors a month.

In this SEO case study, we look at how copy.ai's SEO strategy helped them seize a first-mover advantage in the emerging category and how they built an SEO moat that they still benefit from today.
