Am I the only one who bought a $500 'SEO course' that was just a bunch of free blog posts?
I found out the guy just copied everything from Moz and Ahrefs guides. Has anyone actually found a paid course that was worth it?

It's become a whole business model. You see it with social media marketing courses too, just recycled advice from platform blogs. They add fancy graphics and a "community" tab to justify the price tag. The real skill now is spotting the repackagers before you waste your money.

That "recycled advice" thing is exactly right. I only buy courses now if they come from someone who has actually ranked a site in a competitive niche and will show you their actual data.

Five hundred dollars for a reworded Moz guide is a new level of grift. I saw a guy selling a similar "masterclass" for two grand last year. The whole market feels like people just repackaging the same free basics.

Yeah the "recycled advice" thing used to bug me less, but seeing it priced like that actually changed my mind. I mean it's just getting shameless now.
