# Micro-SaaS, Shopify Apps, Programmatic SEO with Diego Rios of Markeko

Sankalp and I had a fun chat with Diego Rios, who runs [Markeko](https://markeko.com/), on his podcast [Land the right clients](https://anchor.fm/land-the-right-clients/).

We discuss [Micro-SaaS](https://www.preetamnath.com/micro-saas.md), [Shopify apps](https://www.preetamnath.com/blog/shopify-micro-saas.md) and [Programmatic SEO](https://www.preetamnath.com/programmatic-seo-course.md).

#### Here's how Sankalp summarized our conversation:

It was a really fun talk as we got to reminisce about the days where we built a lifestyle business, worked for just a few hours a week and did not have to worry about things like hiring, investors, moving fast, managing chaos, etc.

Our aim back then was to make $700 per month individually so that we can make a livelihood without doing a 9 to 5 job.

We then talked about how we transitioned into building [DelightChat](https://www.delightchat.io/) where we leveraged Programmatic SEO to grow our traffic to ~ 15k impressions a day on google search.

#### We cover these topics in the podcast:

* Designing your life from Ramen income to bigger problems.
* Use Google or Shopify autocomplete to come up with product ideas.
* What is Micro-Saas?
* Problem > Distribution > Product : we don't write a single line of code until we know the needs/customer.
* Listen to your customers first before building new features.
* The best hack is hard work. If you roll the dice enough times, you will get lucky eventually.
* Programmatic SEO: how to build organic traffic and validate landing pages for B2B.
