Driving Qualified Demos: A B2B Search Intent & Meta Description Strategy
Client: A B2B SaaS company in the “project management” software space.
Challenges We Faced
The client’s blog attracted a lot of traffic, but almost no one was signing up for a demo. Their “money” pages were failing:
High Traffic, No MQLs
The blog attracted 40,000 visitors/mo but generated almost zero “demo requests.”
Critical Intent Mismatch
Their “Pricing” page (transactional) was ranking for “what is agile” (informational), leading to a 92% bounce rate.
Boring “Money” Page Descriptions
Their “Pricing” page description was “See our plans and pricing.” Their “Features” page was “Learn about our features.” They had a <1% CTR.
No “Commercial” Descriptions
A Competitor Analysis showed rivals were winning all the “vs.” and “alternative” keywords (e.g., “[Client] vs. Asana”).
No Conversion Hook in SERP
Even when high-intent users saw the listing, the descriptions failed to promise an outcome, differentiate the product, or pre-qualify buyers—so clicks didn’t turn into demo requests.

Our Approach – How We Solved These Challenges
Comprehensive Meta Description Audit
We used Google Search Console to find all intent mismatches. We found their blog was ranking for “commercial” keywords, and their “money” pages weren’t ranking at all.
Meta Description Copywriting (B2B)
We rewrote all “money” page descriptions to include a clear, compelling Value Proposition (UVP) and CTA.
Old: “See our plans and pricing for our software.”
New: “Find the perfect plan for your team. Stop juggling tasks. See why [Brand] is rated #1 for ease of use. Start your free 14-day trial today!”
Meta Descriptions for B2B & SaaS
We created new content/descriptions for “commercial” intent keywords (e.g., “Looking for a [Competitor] alternative? See why [Brand] is the 5-star rated, easier-to-use solution.”).
CTR & Performance Analysis
We tracked the CTR of the new descriptions in Google Search Console and saw an immediate lift in qualified clicks.

| Metric | Before | After | Growth |
|---|---|---|---|
| CTR on “Money” Pages (Pricing, Demo) | 0.8% | 4.1% | +412.5% |

Advice for Marketers & Brand Owners
- Your “money” page descriptions are your most important “ad copy.” Don’t just describe the page; sell the click.
- Your seo optimization meta description must match the user’s intent. A user searching “what is” wants a blog post, not your pricing page.
- Include your core CTA. For B2B, “Start a Free Trial” or “Book a Demo” in the description is a powerful signal.
- Target “vs.” and “alternative” keywords. This is where your most qualified, solution-aware leads are.
Extra Factors That Made It Work
- Adding “Start your free 14-day trial today!” to the “Pricing” page description was the single biggest CTR win.
- The new “Alternatives” and “Vs.” pages, born from our Competitor Analysis, became the highest-converting pages on the entire site.
- Using SEMrush to audit all 500+ pages and find the hidden intent mismatches.
