Frequently asked questions

  • What is SEO copywriting?

    SEO copywriting is a specialized form of writing content designed not only to engage readers but also to optimize the content for search engines. The primary goal of SEO copywriting is to improve a webpage's search engine rankings for specific keywords or phrases.

  • What SEO tools do you cover in this course?

    During this course, we’ll discuss a range of content and SEO tools, including Semrush, Ahrefs, Keyword Surfer, Google Keyword Planner, AnswerThePublic and Google Search Console.

  • Will we create a content strategy document during this course?

    This course is designed to provide you with the skills, tools and knowledge to develop a content strategy for your website. You won’t walk away from the course with an SEO strategy document; however, you will have the know-how to create one.

  • Does this course cover generating content using AI?

    At present, we don’t cover generative AI tools for use in SEO content production. Right now, these tools are in their infancy and are not a replacement for human-generated content. We do however cover how search engines use AI to influence the search results.

  • Can this course be booked privately?

    All our SEO courses are available to book privately and can be customized to suit your needs. We recognize that all businesses have different needs when it comes to content creation and a one-size-fits-all approach to SEO is not always appropriate.

    This course is appropriate for content creators, or anybody in a role that has website content generation as part of their responsibilities. Even if you are not directly focused on search, creating content with an SEO-friendly approach from the beginning will benefit your search visibility.
