Wow I've been part-time web designer for 10 years. This book opened my eyes about what SEO is really about. I would recommend the book to anyone who seriously wants to find out what SE0 is really about

I want to give a six star rating

The narration makes this difficult to listen too. I am trying really hard . I can’t comment on the quality of the information because I am new to this.

I thought I had to be a website guru to do SEO. Just follow the steps!!! Genius

Easy to follow. Amazing

I found this book to be very helpful in giving me a better understanding of how SEO works.
Before listening to this book I was very close to paying someone £80 per week to manage my SEO. Now after listening I am confident that I can do it myself and I have saved a small fortune.

There are many helpful tips in the book, so much so that I am currently on my second listen.
Jason is also true to his word, I have contacted him via the email provided in the book and he has replied to me and given me some top tips.

Highly recommended.

Very helpful

I have a website for my business, and I was charged a lot of money for SEO, and I had to stop. Firstly, I bought Jason McDonald's Adwords book, which immediately brought more paying customers to my website, while bringing my expenditure with Adwords down. I have been working with this SEO book for a few months now. Both books are not really suitable as audiobooks, but they come with a PDF format, which I found easy to follow, and read simultaneously while listening to it, which helped me concentrate. It is probably too early to see the success of this book, but I feel that I have improved my website as a whole, and I have taken things from it that I will continue to implement. I will next be buying the guide to Social Media.

Fantastic SEO book.

Would you consider the audio edition of SEO Fitness Workbook, 2017 Edition to be better than the print version?

If you are new to SEO this will really help you, in fact I would say it gives you all the tools you need. I dont' normally leave reviews as I lead a busy life and its easier sometimes not to but when you see how much effort this author has gone to then it would be rude not too. I think this book was 6 hours, and I have just finished it.

The only negative was the fact that I listened to this when driving with alexa connected to my car so sadly I am yet to review the reference material. I will however be going through them as soon as I am free to do so.

If you are an SEO and just want to brush up your skills this book could be for you too, a lot of the stuff I already knew, but still it was nice to confirm I am going the right direction.

A must read for 2017

If you could sum up SEO Fitness Workbook, 2017 Edition in three words, what would they be?

Insightful
Engaging
Motivational

What did you like best about this story?

The story gave a logical step by step approach that I can't wait to put into practice as a first time SEO mature student. In my normal style I've listened to the audio book from start to end to get an overview, then to go back to the start and implement one step at a time. 8 hours non-stop listening to SEO in the car on the busy UK roads could have been a challenge, but it wasn't. I really enjoyed it and most importantly I believe I can be really good at this!

What does Daniel Matte bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

For me it's really important to get an engaging voice behind an educational book. I only listen to books now as my free time is in the car. Daniel was an excellent choice, and he truly came across as the author Jason.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It's not easy bringing humour to such a geeky subject, but this book did a pretty good job! I really liked the little bits of sarcasm around Google Inc, which added to the authenticity of the author.

Any additional comments?

I've worked in corporate for all of my life, and it's now time for a change. My wife and I want to travel the world and develop skills for an online marketing business that we can run on the road. This book has given me a lot of confidence and inspired me to live our dreams.

The best introduction to SEO out there?

Easy to follow and understand as well as packed full of highly practical advice , and a wealth of supporting tools.

Excellent no nonsense and very practical.
