About the Course
Organizations do not invest in Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) for theory. They need rankings they can defend, traffic they can attribute, and content decisions they can tie to revenue, lead quality, or engagement. That means you must demonstrate capabilities in keyword research, technical auditing, content optimisation, internal linking, backlink evaluation, and performance reporting, all of which align closely with structured approaches used in Google Search Central guidance and common SEO audit workflows.
This course turns scattered Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) tasks into a working system. You will practice site audits with Google Search Console, interpret crawl and index signals, map keywords with intent using tools such as Ahrefs or SEMrush, refine metadata and heading structure, assess page experience signals, and build reporting views in Google Analytics 4. You will also be introduced to schema markup, robots.txt, XML sitemaps, and content briefing methods at a practical operational level, while hands-on exercises focus on tasks you can apply immediately. In plain terms, this course teaches you how to find the right keywords, fix technical barriers, improve page relevance, and report SEO progress in a way decision-makers can use.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) work often happens under pressure from limited content capacity, legacy websites, competing campaign priorities, and shifting search algorithms. This course is built for those conditions, so the exercises stay realistic: you will work with audit findings, content pages, ranking data, and reporting templates rather than abstract theory. This is a Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) course for professionals who need practical outputs, not just terminology.

No coding/programming is required to complete the course, although a working understanding of HTML elements such as titles, headings, and meta descriptions will help you apply the material faster.
