Course introduction

Learn how to use search to drive user acquisition and growth

If you've got a technical and numerical mind becoming an expert in search could be for you. Usually people will specialise in either SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) or PPC (Pay-per click). We're teaching them together because it's important when you're starting out to understand both techniques, and crucially how one affects and supports the other.

Tech companies are often looking for marketers who can drive growth and "acquisition". Both SEO and PPC are disciplines that sit under this umbrella. In this training course you will learn about the Google algorithm and how it drives everything you do, how to set up your first campaign and how to monitor and optimise your campaigns for the best results.

Who's it for?

  • Technical grads who want to work in the growth function of a tech company.
  • Other grads such with strong mathematical and technical skills.
  • Junior marketers who are yet to learn SEO and PPC, but fancy a more technical challenge.
  • Content and social media marketers and bloggers who want to learn more about SEO and paid social.
  • School leavers who have good grades in Maths and are looking for their first job.
