Kajabi / Teachable Migration Campaign

4 additional pages targeting creators leaving competitors. High-intent, bottom-of-funnel traffic.

URLTarget ClusterEst. VolumeStatus
samcart.com/compare/kajabi-alternative"kajabi alternative" cluster7-13K/moLive
samcart.com/compare/teachable-alternative"teachable alternative" cluster5-9K/moLive

samcart.com/blog/best-teachable-alternatives"best teachable alternatives 2026"300-500/moLive
GSC signal: SamCart already has 5,000+ impressions/quarter for kajabi/teachable alternative queries with near-zero clicks (position 40-80). These pages target page 1. Review sites (BloggingX, Esmerise) are the only ones ranking — beatable with SamCart's domain authority.

Redirect Config

288-rule vercel.json deployed with the project. Covers all 90 Typeset URLs across 6 tiers (both typeset.com and www.typeset.com hosts), plus catch-all. All 301 permanent.

Redirect config is ready. Leilani just needs to wire typeset.com DNS to this Vercel deployment — all rules will fire automatically.

Key Decisions Needed

1. typeset.com homepage redirect target: /solutions/ebooks or a new hub page?
2. Product name for Typeset inside SamCart: TBD — brand exercise needed.
3. Blog post CMS: Framer CMS (like existing samcart.com) or Vercel?
4. samcart.com/design-ai: Does it stay, redirect, or become the hub?

Build Status

✅ Vercel deployment live: typeset-migration.vercel.app
18 pages live (Mar 24): 8x /create/ (P0 real copy, P1/P2 placeholder), 4x /solutions/, 2x /compare/ (Kajabi + Teachable), 2x /blog/ listicles. 288-rule redirect config deployed.

Technical SEO Audit

What Typeset Does Well ✅

  • HTTPS + HSTS enabled
  • Framer SSG — fast load times, "optimized" cache status
  • Clean URLs (no query params, no trailing slashes)
  • OG tags on all pages
  • Sitemap.xml present and clean
  • Simple robots.txt

What Typeset Does Poorly ❌

  • No structured data (JSON-LD) on any page
  • No schema markup at all
  • No lastmod in sitemap
  • robots.txt has zero Disallow rules
  • Title tag on /beautiful-ai has wrong description
  • "best-ai-slide-deck-generators" blog title says "2025" — stale

What Typeset Does Well (Adopt)

1. Dedicated Feature Landing Pages per Use Case

Individual pages for each use case (/ai-ebook-generator, /ai-report-generator, etc.) with keyword-optimized titles, persona sections, step-by-step flows, and social proof.

2. "Best X" Listicle Blog Posts

Positions Typeset #1, then honestly reviews 6-8 competitors. Comparison tables. Dominates "best X" and "X alternatives" SERPs.

3. Ebook Content Hub

Complete user journey: How to create → write → price → sell an ebook. Each post links to the next, creating a content silo.

4. Persona-Based Sections

Each landing page addresses Digital Creators, Authors, Marketers, Educators, and Bloggers with specific pain points and use cases.

5. Content Repurposing Angle

"Turn your ebook into 1,000+ pieces of content" — one input becomes ads, social posts, banners, slides.

Risks

Temporary ranking dip (2-4 weeks): Normal during domain migrations. Rankings recover within 1-2 months.
Content mismatch: If Typeset pages redirect to thin/nonexistent pages, Google devalues redirects. Mitigated by creating matching pages first.
typeset.io confusion: Academic platform with much higher traffic. Avoid cross-contamination in Google's entity graph.
Brand queries: People searching "typeset" land on samcart.com. Need clear messaging about what happened.

Overview

90 URLs mapped across 6 tiers + catch-all rule. All redirects must be 301 (permanent) to transfer ranking signals. Keep typeset.com domain registered indefinitely.
