Search Engine Optimisation SEO SEM and Online Visibility Course - HRDF Approved
Details
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is widely regarded as an important and fundamental part of any digital marketer’s arsenal, yet it still remains very misunderstood by many who still follow SEO techniques from the 90’s and early 2000’s. Search Engine Optimisation has come a long way since then due to Google setting the standard and high bar for websites to aspire to. However, the techniques and SEO strategies that can be employed are relatively simple to achieve.
Our SEO training course and workshop demystifies the jargon associated with search engine optimisation, helping marketers, designers and developers create successful SEO campaigns that will compliment other online marketing activity as well as improve ranking in Googe search and other major search engines. Participants have attended from industries such as travel/tourism, F&B, education, creative agencies and financial/banks.
The day is packed full of useful strategies, case studies, recommended tools and the very latest research on best practice. It aims to empower attendees to run their own SEO campaigns or to better manage their SEO agency relationships
Previous attendees of this course include: Melia Hotels, Manulife Insurance, Kulim Malaysia, Alphamatic and many more.
