Search Engine Optimization Specialists
Here are some of the top SEO specialists out there!
Throughout my career, I have been asked ‘how do I learn SEO’ or ‘who should I follow in to learn SEO’. I have been fortunate enough to be in an industry that has tons of great people willing to share loads of free content to help others grow.
With this website, I want to highlight some great people who have proven themselves as trustworthy sources of information. You may consider them ‘SEO experts’ but that is a term I tend to lean away from. Expert to me means you have learned everything. These people never stop learning and sharing their real information backed with data and experience.
Check out their backgrounds and give them a follow. If you have anyone else you think should be highlighted on this site please reach out on Twitter.
