SaaS affiliate site from zero - 3 weeks in
Building a SaaS affiliate site from zero. No ads, just organic content.
3 weeks in: 156 sessions, 73% engagement rate from Quora & Medium.
Built a free ROI diagnostic instead of generic listicles. Early but promising.
Trending on Indie Hackers
Nice early signal here—156 sessions in 3 weeks with mostly Quora + Medium is actually a solid start, especially if engagement is genuinely high. The “free ROI diagnostic” angle is smarter than typical SaaS affiliate listicles because it creates intent instead of just capturing search traffic.
One thing I’d watch is distribution dependency: Quora/Medium traffic can be volatile, so it might be worth doubling down on either SEO pages around specific SaaS comparison keywords or turning that ROI tool into a lead magnet you can distribute across multiple channels.
