What do you do after you've mastered Moz's SEO starter guide? The answer may be Advanced SEO.
Advanced SEO is simply any set of SEO techniques that require some degree of expert knowledge. It varies from person to person, but let's just say you probably won't master these in your first few months.
Advanced SEO typically involves technical concepts that are somewhat advanced, and/or a deeper understanding of the workings of Google's algorithm and are often employed by Professional SEOs. Anyone can master advanced concepts with the right strategic guidance and real life application.
