What we found

TrustMyCourse opened the published course directly. The advertised fifteen lessons across six modules were present, running one hour forty-eight minutes and taught by Sam Oh, and the material begins without a sign-up as stated. Ahrefs itself makes no guarantee about rankings, traffic or income. The course page carries buyer testimonials citing specific traffic results; those are claims attributed to the buyers who made them, and TrustMyCourse did not independently verify any of those outcomes.

Those are claims attributed to the buyers who made them rather than promises by the provider, and TrustMyCourse did not independently verify any of those outcomes.

  • Whether a course is the right choice for your situation
  • Teaching quality, or the personal opinions of previous buyers
  • Anything a creator changes between scheduled re-checks

    SEO Course for Beginners

    A short video course from the team behind the Ahrefs toolset, covering the four areas a new site owner has to get right: finding keywords worth targeting, on-page work, building links, and the technical basics that decide whether pages can be crawled at all. Fourteen lessons totalling roughly two hours, published without a sign-up or an Ahrefs subscription. Examples are demonstrated in the provider's own tools, which is worth knowing before starting.
