What to Look For in SEO Training and How to Learn it For Free

This YouMoz entry was submitted by one of our community members. The author’s views are entirely their own (excluding an unlikely case of hypnosis) and may not reflect the views of Moz.

With the SEO / SEM Industry maturing and people becoming "professional" SEOs, there has been a growth in Search Engine Optimization training seminars and online schools. Currently, there exists no way to rate a good school from a bad one, and the risk of paying for an incomplete education is high. So what does a school have to cover to graduate competent SEOs?

Here is a list of what a comprehensive training course for SEO would cover: 

  • SEO Plan Creation
  • Goal Determination
  • Basic HTML
  • Understanding Meta / Robots.txt
  • Keyword Research
  • Link Building
  • Viral Content Basics
  • Social Media Leverage
  • Analytics / Tracking 

The issue with paying for this information is that a majority of it is given for free on the web at places like SEOmoz. So here is a list of sites and corresponding articles that will help you get a better handle on SEO and polish the aspects that you may need to re-learn.
