Key Results

Organic Traffic Growth: from 1200 to 8000 monthly sessions

Monthly organic sessions increased from approximately 1,200 to over 8,000, representing more than 6× growth year over year. Traffic growth was not limited to a single market: visibility expanded across English, German, and Dutch versions of the platform, reducing dependency on one primary language and strengthening overall domain resilience.

Authority & Domain Strength

The site’s Domain Rating (DR) increased from 45 to 58, reflecting sustained growth in backlink quality rather than volume alone. Link acquisition focused on relevant fintech, SaaS, and payment-industry sources, helping position noda.live as an authoritative platform within the open banking ecosystem.

Keyword Visibility & Rankings: Top 10 increased from 200 to over 1900

The number of keywords ranking in the Top-10 search results grew from around 200 to over 1,900. This growth was driven primarily by:

improved alignment between product pages and search intent,
expansion of informational and commercial topic clusters,
stronger internal linking between core SaaS pages and supporting content.

As a result, noda.live began ranking not only for branded and low-competition terms, but also for high-intent fintech and open-banking keywords across multiple European markets.

AI & LLM Visibility Results

Alongside traditional SEO growth, noda.live achieved a strong increase in visibility across AI-driven platforms, including ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, Perplexity, Gemini, and Copilot. Over the last six months, the platform reached 300+ citations in Google AI Overview and 280+ citations in ChatGPT, with visibility expanding across more than 100 indexed pages. AI references also grew in Perplexity, Gemini, and Copilot, indicating broader adoption across different AI ecosystems. This growth was driven by clear topical clustering around open banking and payment infrastructure. Expert-level explanatory content and consistent internal linking helped AI systems better understand and reuse the site’s pages. As a result, noda.live established itself as a trusted source within AI-assisted search and discovery.
