This is super advanced tips! I’ve been trying to educate myself on SEO on KZbin for years, I know more about it than UX designers, but I only feel confident with basic SEO at this point. I know enough to know what I don’t know. The reason I don’t like this video is that you started it prefacing that this is for a novice, but this is definitely not practical for novices. This is at the level for people who are SEO specialists already

[@AhrefsCom]

There is no claim that the video is for a novice; it simply states that it primarily uses SEO basics. Even novices should know what keyword research is. -Helen

Hey @Ahrefs this is a great one! May I ask around 1:18, what URL/tool you used to inspect those keywords/ranks? I feel this question sound too basic, but I am new to SEO :-) Thanks in advance!!!
