Semrush SEO Crash Course with Brian Dean

by Semrush

Under an hour of video covering the SEO workflow end to end: what search optimisation is, finding keywords, writing pages for them, earning links, and checking whether any of it worked. Taught by Backlinko's Brian Dean and published free by Semrush, with a certificate on completion. It is a compressed overview rather than a full curriculum — five substantive lessons — demonstrations use Semrush's own tools, and the final segment is promotional.

    SEO Course for Beginners
