What You Get
The SEO Cookbook is a 60-page PDF that teaches photographers everything they need to know about search engines and how to rank well in search. The book is organized into simple recipes, each taking anywhere from 15 minutes to 4 hours. The recipes allow you to focus on a specific part of your website a little bit at a time. For example, you can optimize your homepage one day, images another day, then a blog post, then learn how to get featured on another website. With the SEO Cookbook, you can move forward at your own pace.
It covers how Google works and how to exploit its ranking factors. It gives you step-by-step instructions for improving every page of your website so searchers can find you.
In the Course, for every page of the ebook you’ll find a video where I describe and show you exactly what to do. The videos are more in-depth because video can cover a lot of material quickly. The course includes access to archived webinars where I reviewed a number of photography websites in real time.
Those enrolled in the course often gain a deeper understanding of the material and rank faster than those who only use the PDF.
