Introduction
SiteGuru is an SEO tool that helps marketers and website owners improve their site’s performance by finding and fixing SEO issues. With a clear focus on simplicity and ease of use, the team built a strong reputation in a space dominated by overly complex tools. But after years of shipping new features, the product had become bloated and hard to evolve. They needed a fresh design system, a more scalable interface, and a simpler user experience, without losing what made the tool approachable in the first place.
