Looking for Marketing/SEO expert to help build a really cool SEO tool.

Hey,
I’m a developer working on a tool for SEO. I have 12+ years of experience building tools and SaaS products.
I’m based in western Canada (PST timezone). Ideally looking for someone in Canada, the US, or Mexico for timezone alignment, but I’m open to other locations if the fit is right.


Backstory:

I built a solution for myself to analyze my SEO data faster.
Instead of clicking through dashboards and exporting CSVs, I can now get the insights I need in seconds. It’s been a game changer for how I work on my own sites.
After using it for a while, I realized this could be a real product. I did market research and found competitors who are doing very well with validated pricing, real paying customers, and growing user bases.
After analyzing them closely, I noticed they’re missing some important features and there’s a clear gap I want to exploit.
I’m not going to share too many details publicly, but the market is clearly validated and there’s real demand.


What I bring:

Founder and full stack developer with 12+ years of experience
I can build the entire SaaS product quickly, including frontend, backend, and infrastructure
Strong knowledge of modern tools and trends, allowing us to move very fast
A working local system that I already use multiple times per week
Ego free cofounder mentality. SEO is not my expertise and I’m ready to take advice from someone who knows the space
Long term commitment. This is not a side project I’ll drop in a couple of months


What I’m looking for:

Someone very knowledgeable in marketing and SEO
Someone who actually practices SEO, not just theory. You’ve ranked sites and done the work
Strong intuition for which insights actually move the needle for SEO practitioners
Ability to help shape the product roadmap based on real user needs
Willingness to be hands on early on, including talking to users, shaping features, and possibly helping with marketing
Bonus if you already have an audience or network in the SEO space


The opportunity:

Validated market with competitors charging real money
Clear gap in the market
Opportunity to build something meaningfully better
Looking for a true cofounder with a 50/50 equity split, not a contractor or advisor


What I’m not looking for:

Someone who only wants to advise from the sidelines
Someone who wants equity in exchange for introductions or high level strategy
Someone who can’t commit real time


Next steps:

If this sounds interesting, send me a DM.
I’m ready to start working on this ASAP and looking for someone equally motivated.

Talk soon.
