SEO is straight-up magical. It’s free, easy and can drive millions of visitors to your website. We’ll show you how we used SEO to secure top Google placement for almost any voting-related search, allowing us to run the largest—and cheapest—voter engagement program in America. During the training, you’ll learn five things you can immediately do to your website to improve your search engine ranking and reach more visitors without spending money. This is an intermediate to advanced level training for people who love the internet, love user-generated content, know HTML and have administrative access to at least one website. Bring your laptop so you can get under the hood of your website and start making changes.
