SEO Training San Francisco, CA
Wasting your time and money with overpriced digital marketing agencies that deliver little to no SEO results? Many companies in San Francisco are getting ripped off for so-called SEO services. At Emily Journey & Associates, we’ve learned about this problem directly from our clients who hire us for a different service: WordPress Training.
When we ask, "What is that SEO/marketing agency doing for you?" The answer we get is usually something like, "Uhhhhh, I'm not sure . . . whatever it is, it's not working!"
Overpriced digital marketing agencies are not delivering on their promises, blaming algorithms or claiming the need for more time in order to see results. Or, even worse, they blame YOU.
Don't believe it.
Here's my first SEO tip: Don't waste your money on web design and marketing agencies that promise results from mysterious behind-the-scenes activities that primarily involve:
- special html markups,
- micro-sites, or
- automated directory submissions.
- backlinking
Your best investment in search engine optimization begins with in-person training for yourself or for your team.

What are the benefits of SEO training?
Gone are the days when you could launch a beautiful website and have potential customers automatically flock to it.
Consider your investment in print advertising. Wouldn't you rather have more of your prospects find your website through a simple (and free) Google search result?
Get customers to call you
“What if you have a great product but nobody can find your website? Emily’s your remedy. If you want your website to reach the top of Google searches, she’s your person. If you want to learn how to navigate and manage your own WordPress site, she’s your person. If you want follow-ups, check-ins and after-training support, she’s your person. You’re going to be way better off when you understand what the principles are. From there, you can enhance your own reputation and get the customers that you are now cold calling…to call you.
What about your sales team? Are you still providing them with outdated tools such as brochures and flyers? Wouldn't it be great if you could support their efforts with a naturally strong search engine ranking and inbound leads?

Is SEO training in San Francisco available virtually?

Training sessions are interactive and focus on applying SEO strategies to your own website and content. When training is conducted virtually, you will also receive a recording of the session so you can refer back to the material later.
How is SEO training different from hiring an SEO agency?
SEO training teaches you how search engine optimization works so you can make informed decisions about your website and marketing strategy.

We have six SEO instructors on our team, so we can typically get your training on our calendar about two weeks out, sometimes sooner. It is also normal to have to wait up to a month for training during our busy times.
Our Training Coordinator, Erin Brooks, will work with you to find the best days and times for your training. She will then introduce you to your instructor so that you can discuss your goals and get answers to any remaining questions you might have.
