What does this course cover?

A framework approach to SEO: Rather than teach you a set of tactics that will have a limited shelf-life, this focuses on building a solid understanding of the fundamentals of how search engines work and what they are trying to achieve. It is this knowledge that will allow you to build your own strategies, come up with your own tactics and out-pace your competitors. That's how you rank #1!

Technical SEO: We'll take you from an understanding of how search engines crawl, render and index the web, through to the details of how to get your hands dirty and implement schema, canonical and hreflang tags.

Content SEO: You'll learn about keyword and intent research, how to plan your content to avoid common issues such as cannibilisation, and most importantly a proven process to optimise your website content to give it the best possible chance of ranking.

Link building: Links are still one of the most important ranking factors in Google. We'll go through the details of different link-building strategies, tactics, and tools.

    The Course is amazing. Learned so many concepts, so many new things, even some basics that were demonstrated in a professional way was great. But I believe the InLinks section and the Microdata section can be more interactive like all the other sections (specially InLinks) because it is more of learning a specific tool instead of strategizing a complete internal linking content planning and all. That's it, the course is overall amazing!

    Great course overall, very detailed and easy to follow for anyone starting out in SEO. The only downside is that there was no section on off-page SEO, which I was hoping to learn as well. Still, the content is worth it and I’d recommend this course to beginners who want to understand SEO properly.
