Recommended SEO courses?
I’ve just finished a full stack web development course with the aim to make websites for local businesses. The next step I plan to take on my journey is to study SEO, as this is a skill I want to utilise for my (hopefully) future clients.I’ve read quite a bit around the subject, but I learn best by being taught a broad overview, before focusing on some specific topics, delving into some hands-on projects that I can then branch out of when I want to learn specific things.I’ve been looking at courses on Udemy and quite a few of them seem to put emphasis on Wordpress which, while probably still relevant, I’d rather not get bogged down in.With all of this in mind, does anyone know of any courses that would suit me? So far, the best looking one I’ve found is this one on Udemy, though it still uses Wordpress. I have plenty of resources, articles and documentation that I have been reading – I’m looking specifically for more practical projects. And I do enjoy a certificate :)Thanks guys
