Wasn't Chase adamant about SEO being dead and also called out for faking videos/photo? That just seems hard to get behind someone like that…idk though!

I think you miss the point in why he did that mate. Im currently into this second university course. Trust me this stuff is GOOD.

eh idk..he literally came in all the groups saying that, and said how toxic the SEO industry is and how he was bullied etc (he's probably right about all that) then went on Craig's podcast and said it was basically all a show. So yeah I mean that kind of works from that angle, so I won't deny the effect of being able to generate buzz and then push a product. So let me guess that's why he did it?

he didn't say that direct to me but even when he did all that SEO is Dead stuff we knew what he was up to and it worked he stood out and thats what marketing is all about (no such thing as bad publicity). All you have to do is look at his product & brand and where it is now from where it was back then, seems to me his strategy has worked. Trust me I have been in the SEO game for 8 years, i'm constantly up – skilling and Chase Reiner and Craig are killing it right now. We all take a gamble when purchasing a course, sometimes the content can be rubbish. But this is certainly not the case for Chase Reiner's courses this stuff is gold! _👍🏽1

I don't doubt his skill but you are most definitely mistaken about no such thing as bad publicity. Pretty sure Chase is a good example of that actually. I personally don't see many SEO's being brought up into a conversation of "hate" besides Neil Patel, and I think that is one of the biggest PR myths that I still see posted in SEO/Marketing groups. "No such thing as bad publicity".

lol mate Neil Patel makes Millions ? Do yo think he is worried about being hated ? Your missing the point dude.

I suppose I clearly am missing the point since this was a topic about SEO courses and who is the best..Chase routinely said he doesn't build links at all and just focuses on content and on-page optimization. He would routinely provide screenshots(that were proven to be fake) of massive traffic gains all without building links and then he would qualify his stance by saying 'i don't build links but the content is so good that i get natural links'. Then he started to aggressively push his products to sell. He is a good marketer no doubt. Faking screenshots though and then selling a course doesn't exactly instill trust for me to want to take the course. I'm not saying Chase is a fraud/bad at SEO or anything of the sort. I respect the hustle of anyone building their brand. No hard feelings. _👍🏽1

No hard feelings at all dude. But I’m the one of many that’s doing his course and your the one that’s judging without doing the course. Yes he pushes the boat out a little but so do them all and they all admit it. At the end of the day I’m the one doing the course and I know the courses are excellent don’t judge until you do one. It’s pretty simple I wanna learn from those who have proven results and Chase is one of them.
