2 years ago, I started an SEO tool the main narrative was: "SEO is dead", "ChatGPT will kill Google", "Ahrefs and Semrush own the market" built it anyway, with a Ukrainian co-maker I had never met in person today Outrank does $300k+ MRR meanwhile, in the "worst startup idea" category: - Semrush sold to Adobe for $1.9B - Ahrefs is at ~$150M ARR with zero investors - Profound raised $180M at $1.8B valuation this week if a market is crowded, it means it's validated SEO is not dead, it got us…
