SEO Training and SEO courses in Switzerland

SEO training sessions are ideal for businesses and institutions. They aim to teach how to leverage SEO opportunities effectively.

The SEO courses listed here are designed for businesses. If you’re not a business and are looking for a group training, I organise a few each year when I have a minimum group of 8 participants. Feel free to contact me to express your interest: isaline@pilea.ch.

Why attend an SEO training in Switzerland?

I train businesses and in-house marketing teams to think strategically, analytically, and practically about integrating SEO into their overall marketing strategy. During the SEO training, participants will learn the fundamentals of SEO, the opportunities it offers for businesses, and how search engines work.

SEO training is especially suited for medium and large companies that want to enhance their teams’ skills (marketing, content, product, etc.) in a practical and applicable way.

Search engines like Google are constantly evolving, with regular updates that make it challenging for businesses and marketers to keep up. Attending one of my SEO training sessions will provide you with the latest industry knowledge, saving you time in searching for reliable and up-to-date articles. Plus, you’ll have a knowledgeable professional on hand to answer your questions directly.

Benefits of an SEO Training

✔️ Understand the opportunities offered by search engines in a simple way

✔️ Invest in SEO knowledge and your team’s development (and eventually reduce reliance on external resources)

✔️ Ask real-time questions on the topics that matter most to you right now

SEO Training Topics

Here are some of the topics you can include in your SEO training. The content and duration of the training will depend on the results you aim to achieve and your team’s needs.

The Fundamentals of SEO

Search engine optimisation (SEO) helps place your website at the top of search results without paying per click. In this introduction, you will learn what SEO is (and what it isn’t), why it matters, the goals it can achieve at different stages of the marketing funnel, and how it integrates into a broader marketing mix.

Keyword Research

Keyword research is the foundation of all SEO and content marketing activities. In this training, you’ll learn what keyword research is, how to identify search intent, and how to perform keyword research effectively.

On-Page SEO or SEO for Web Copywriting

On-page SEO refers to the writing and layout efforts applied to textual content. In this session, you’ll discover the tasks needed to optimise a web page’s text and images, and understand why these optimisations are important. We’ll discuss content organisation, headings, introductions, images, and internal and external links.

If you’re using WordPress, a module on Yoast SEO or Rankmath can be added to the training.

SEO Performance Analysis and SEO Reporting

Optimising your website is important, but knowing if your efforts are delivering results is essential. Monitoring the performance of your SEO strategy is crucial for making informed decisions on next steps. In this training, you’ll learn about key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure your SEO success and determine whether adjustments are needed.

Introduction to Google Search Console

A must-have tool in the SEO industry, Google Search Console provides essential insights to monitor your site’s performance on Google Search, ensure that Google can crawl your site properly, and test the validity and performance of specific pages.

In this SEO training, you’ll learn what information is available in the tool, how to navigate it, and how to use it to understand your website’s performance. You can choose between a beginner or advanced module.

Introduction to Google Analytics 4

Another essential tool in the SEO industry, Google Analytics 4 (GA4) provides crucial insights into your marketing campaign performance and audience behaviour. In this session, you’ll learn about the features of GA4, the steps required to correctly configure your GA4 account, data protection features, and how to start understanding your audience.

Google Analytics 4: Custom Report Creation and Modification

Google Analytics 4 allows you to create custom reports directly within the tool (goodbye Excel and Looker Studio!). In this Google Analytics training, you’ll learn how to use and customise standard reports, how to modify the GA4 menu, how to implement and track UTMs, and how to leverage the three “Explore” report types to gather deeper insights.

Frequently asked questions about SEO trainings

Who Should Attend These SEO Training Sessions?
My SEO training sessions are ideal for agencies and internal marketing teams who want to learn how to use SEO for their own business or clients. I encourage profiles such as web developers, social media specialists, copywriters, and even management to participate, as this helps improve internal communication. SEO plays a role in all of these functions.

Generally, a half-day tailored SEO training session for around ten participants starts at 2’500 CHF.
