Similar to a tax audit from the IRS, an SEO audit digs deep into a client's current content strategy to analyze engagement results and discover shortcomings to improve on.
Essentially, this bundle teaches you how to find patterns throughout content metrics to expose issues within a certain strategy, whether it be a blog, social media presence, newsletter/email blasts, or ad campaigns.
For example, by taking these courses, you'll be able to better identify a client's overall SEO performance through their use of metadata, social tags, and schema markups, as well as gauging their impact on mobile-friendliness and overall execution of content.
Once you have the technical SEO stuff figured out, you can then move onto learning what it takes to run a successful blog content strategy. In this course, you'll learn how to build target personas for your clients, along with building an execution plan and blog guidelines for any article writing jobs you may offer to other Fiverr freelancers.
If you can master technical SEO and content strategy, even if your primary gigs focus on writing, you become more valuable to clients, as you're able to provide multiple closely related services that greatly impact a client's traffic, authority, and sales.
A business that uses a blogger without having a content strategy and SEO strategy in place is in a dangerous position, as it's unlikely they'll see positive and repeatable results just from a few random blog posts, so it's likely you'll get repeat business from them.
Therefore, it's in everyone's best interests, including yours, if you can have an intelligent discussion with a prospective buyer about their SEO and content strategy needs. With these courses under your belt, you can even offer SEO and content strategy as upsells on your existing blogging gigs, offer them as standalone gigs, or as part of a complete content creation package.
The program costs only $46 for two courses, and once you finish, you'll get an awesome badge to display on your freelance portfolio to showcase to potential clients.
Taught by world-renowned Google Analytics (GA) and pay-per-click (PPC) expert, Jeff Sauer, this course helps you harness the power of user data and apply it to your clients' (or your own) marketing strategy.
According to Sauer, over 80% of all websites use Google Analytics to see how their site performs, as well as what content on the site receives the most engagement. In his workshop, Suer teaches you the basics of navigating a GA account, as well as how to generate reports based on audience types, user behaviors, site conversions, and acquisitions from user origination points.
Just remember, once you are ready to start taking on clients for Google Analytics gigs, you'll need access to the client's GA account to analyze their data.
For just $74, you'll go through 12 different lessons and a final quiz to test your mastery. When you're done, you'll earn a nifty badge that showcases your Google Analytics skills.
