DigitalOcean makes pretty extensive use of ads for retargetting & etc. Try going to their site then browsing Youtube or Twitter, for example. I've seen enough of the "You've been coding like a beast..." video to last me several lifetimes.
Content marketing into emailed drip campaigns and/or retargetting is a pretty powerful formula in many SaaS businesses. Scalable content creation can be a pretty powerful force multiplier at lots of businesses, including SaaS businesses.
A service which is remarkable enough to mention to friends, or which intrinsically gets mentioned to other people in the course of typical use (e.g. Basecamp), is a nice asset to have, too, but many SaaS companies grow without those advantages.
- mindgap 13y agoI agree with you about content marketing and remarkable service. Anyway, I guess, retargeting is something powerful if you are able to bring a user on your site at least one time. Are you suggesting that their growth is caused by "only" content marketing + retargeting + remarkable product?
- mattwritescode 13y agoI know what you mean. The number of times that video has played on youtube. I ended up having to install adblocker. Do love digitalocean though.
