Distilled U or Market Motive? Need recommendations for self-paced, advanced SEO training courses.
-
I'd like to get some recommendations on self-paced SEO courses. They need to be online, and they need to be rather advanced.
Moz has perks for both Distilled U and Market Motive. Has anyone gone through these? What are the differences in format, content, etc.?

Our company (Market Campus) launched in the summer of 2014 and our students have had amazing success. From students who knew very little about digital marketing and wanted to start a career to companies sending their employees to be re-trained. We've been getting so much demand to launch an online solution we are getting ready to launch our first ever online course. You can check out our pricing options by clicking here.
The issue we found with many of the popular online courses out there is there is zero direction. They are pricey subscriptions packed with content and no path for the user. Our course was designed specifically with a path that we've designed to take you to beginner to pro. The reviews and feedback we've received has been awesome.
It really is an amazing program and takes an entirely new (and much more effective) approach to teaching digital marketing. If you have any questions shoot us an email at info@marketcampus.com

Hey Justin,
I went through Market Motive and I Loved it. I had what I though a decent understanding of SEO but my knoledge now in comparison is next level.
Content is great! They really explain everything well in all their video modules. The quick quiz's are nice to make sure I'v learnt the key concepts. In my opinion their content is very to date consider the ever changing world of SEO. You'll find a few inconsistencies VS. new best practice but for the most part it's very accurate.
I can't speak for distilled but it's a huge plus to have OMCP certification after passing the final test. Great thing to use for clients and email signatures.
I just got my first Audit + Ongoing client and I couldn't have done it without their training.
Hope that helps!

Hey Justin,
I've done the complete DistilledU training. It's advanced in sections and at times, very basic. It's pretty much covers everything tho. It's very much learn at your own pace, as is MarketMotive and I have all my strategists or consultants work through Distilled and Moz as part of the their training for in house work. I don't know anyone who has done the Market Motive courses, but I can tell you after spending a little more time on it today, that I will be going through and possibly ordering it. We are also HubSpot certified as an agency so many of these certifications would benefit that tie we have with their products.
My guess, the advanced training you would be looking for - would be MarketMotive.com as I am looking at it myself for our agency and our teams! That's my 2 cents
I plan on getting budgets set aside and getting it all lined up. I'm sold and going to move it into the pipeline.

I had a look at Distilled U and while it caters for all levels, there is a fair bit of advanced content. I was under the impression that there was a free trial for this, but could be wrong.
i can only speak for this, but I found it well paced with good examples and explanations.

AJAX requests and implication for SEO
Hi, I got a question in regard to webpages being served via AJAX request as I couldn't find a definitive answer in regard to an issue we currently face: When visitors on our site select a facet on a Listing Page, the site doesn't fully reload. As a consequence only certain tags of the content (H1, description,..) are updated, while other tags like canonical URLs, meta noindex,nofollow tag, or the title tag are not updating as long as you don't refresh the page. We have no information about how this will be crawled and indexed yet but I was wondering if anyone of you knows, how this will impact SEO?

Onsite SEO vs Offsite SEO
Hey I know the importance of both onsite & offsite, primarily with regard to outreach/content/social. One thing I am trying to determine at the moment, is how much do I invest in offsite. My current focus is to improve our onpage content on product pages, which is taking some time as we have a small team. But I also know our backlinks need to improve. I'm just struggling on where to spend my time. Finish the onsite stuff by section first, or try to do a bit of both onsite/offsite at the same time?

CDN for SEO (or not)?
Does CDN impact on SEO or not? There seems conflicting ideas as to whether they impact positively or negatively, I realise that if the page loads quicker this is a good thing for SEO and usability of course. Does Google see CDN as just cheating and a get-around for not doing the work from the ground up and using good hosting etc? Do you have any direct experience? All constructive input much appreciated!

Does having a ? on the end of your URL affect your SEO?
I have some redirects that were done with at "?" at the end of the URL to include google coding (i.e. you click on an adwords link and the google coding follows the redirected link). When there is not coding to follow the link just appears as "filename.html?". Will that affect us negatively SEO-wise? Thank you.

Iframe redirect bad for SEO?
Hi, I have a website (http://www.blowingminds.de) wich I put a spreadshirt shop into via iframe. The thing is I am not sure on how the iframe effects my SEO? Can I just optimise the main domain for search? Well I want the spreadshirt shop to be found under the domain name (www.blowingminds.de) but the only real way to do it is by implementing an iframe because each spreadshirt shop has its own subdomain eg.: blowingminds.spreadshirt.de but the only real way to do it is via iframe, as they do not offer a complete domain redirect. (Or have I overseen some other way?) I hope you guys can help me on this one 🙂 Thanks in advance. Malte
