What students are saying
Ryan has masterful knowledge of all things SEO. This Masterclass taught me about many of the considerations that need thought of when optimizing for SEO. Utilizing a content strategy, identifying key words, and getting hands on experience with best-in-class applications set this class apart from the pack. It was time well spent with others that were interested in taking their SEO knowledge to the next level. I appreciated being walked through the history of SEO and how it has changed over the years. A lovely side effect of taking this course is that I feel comfortable using and crafting prompts in AI tools like Gemini and ChatGPT.

I learned a ton from the SEO Masterclass for Marketers. The emphasis on AI was particularly useful given the direction things seem to be going in. I felt more equipped to be a better support for future SEO team members coming out of this class. It was also great to get firsthand experience using AI to help research and drive SEO efforts.

This course meets once a week for two-and-a-half hours in the morning (Eastern Time) for three consecutive weeks.
Is this course live or pre-recorded?

Nope! No experience necessary. I’ll cover the fundamentals and then dive into strategy and tactics. And the real projects we work on are adaptable to any level of knowledge.
What if I already know a little about SEO?
Great! If you’ve read about SEO, or maybe even taken an online course before, this cohort will allow you to truly apply what you’ve learned. And because SEO is constantly changing, you’ll get only the most up-to-date SEO best practices and strategies.
Can I work during the cohort?
Absolutely! The cohort is structured for working professionals. You can bring current projects into the cohort to apply learnings, and vice versa, apply learnings to your current work.
