Now that everyone has had a bit more time to start going through SEO Blueprint 2 (currently only available to people who bought SEO Blueprint version 1), we thought our Dashboard page deserved a bit of a refresh.

The design is quite a radical change, but we're confident it will help you find our new content a lot more easily.

Here's a sneak peek:

Content that we added to the Super 100 and Super Content modules have been put in their respective Blueprints, rather than being kept as part of Superpixels.

In other words, we added quite a bit more content than this, but now it can be found in its proper home.

You should get redirected to the Dashboard page as soon as you login but if not, here's another link: https://seoblueprint.com/dashboard/

Thank you for all of the incredible feedback on SEO Blueprint 2 so far. There's lots more on the way!

Last week we soft launched SEO Blueprint 2 in our Facebook group and the feedback has been incredible.

Here's a sample of the comments (you may need to click 'display images' in your email client):

Darren's "This is the best thing I read online in 2 years" truly made my day.

I also included Hannes' "Is this still focusing on SEO?" question because this is such a radical change to what we've shared in the past.

Because of this, I think I should reiterate what I said to Gabor's great comment (among 75 on our announcement post).

In essence, after doing 1,500+ video audits, we keep finding the same SEO issues over and over again. Things that should definitely be fixed, but 99% of those fixes are already inside the course.

While this audit isn't too different from other audits we have inside SEO Blueprint, I should mention that it's quite...blunt.

I cover quite a few issues on the website, but I don't go into detail on each specific one like I normally would.

Why? Well, we have so many audits where I've pointed out similar issues that I don't want to bore you.

Instead, I've tried to focus more on the site as a whole - giving attention to the breadth of the website, rather than its depth.

Still, I am honored to have been able to look at the site and if anything else, it's testament to our course that all of the problems found have individual videos covering them in a lot of depth.

There's also a special announcement around the 15 minute mark if you haven't been following the comments inside the course, that I can't wait to share with you!

We've just went live with a new website audit for 2021: This time looking at the personal travel site of SEO Blueprint member, Jeremy.

Jeremy clearly knows what he's doing when it comes to SEO and building sites - and the site is in a niche that's clearly personal to him - but I (Glen) still felt like I had some good suggestions to offer.

You can view the audit here: https://seoblueprint.com/travel-site-with-passionate/

Jeremy has built a great brand and has some incredible social proof, but some areas of the website could do with a little "polish" to help him make the most of the traffic he's getting.

Thanks for the opportunity to look at the site, Jeremy, and we wish you the best of luck with it going forward!

On the 19th of January we announced a brand new series where we would be diagnosing issues with our own website, Detailed.com, and fixing them along the way.

Today I'm happy to be sharing the second episode (the first can be found here), where I essentially "click around" and find everything I'm not happy with.

While this sounds random, it's a process we always implement for clients and is something we've used to find even non-SEO related issues they never new existed (but were very grateful to learn about).

An honest note to save your time: You're not likely to learn much regarding improving your own websites in this video. Rather, see this is as a video to see what I'm happy to critique about myself. 

Here's the link: https://seoblueprint.com/diagnosing-finding-issues/

If you watch it all the way through, you'll also learn about a couple of tools on the Detailed website there's a good chance you didn't know existed.

P.S. Later today we're opening up SEO Blueprint for the first time in 9 months. If you know anyone who might benefit from the course, we would love it you passed it along (zero pressure, of course).

Today I'm very excited to be sharing the first version of our SERP Scraper tool, OpenSearch, which was designed to replace URL Profiler which we feature in the course.

URL Profiler's tool no longer works, so we built our own, exclusively for members.

Here's a preview of how it looks (you may need to click 'display images' if you're viewing this in an email client):

We initially released this in our Facebook Group last week as a Mac only offering, but I'm happy to tell you the Windows version is now live.

Please note that this software is in beta (it's the first version) so we will look to improve it.

You can get the download links, and view our terms of use, here.

The 'terms of use' is a bit boring, we know, but we do have to point out that scraping search results is against Google's Terms of Service.

To help protect you, we purposefully limit how many keywords you can scrape search results for to 25 per term. We also have a 'random' timing option in place as well.

Wondering what you would do with a tool like this? You can learn more about what we previously taught over here, but you'll find many possible use cases in our entire on-site SEO blueprint.

We really hope you get value from this.

If you have any questions or feedback, please join our Facebook thread, here. 

One part of SEO Blueprint that we're incredibly proud of is our community. Not only via our Facebook Group (1,000+ discussions) but our below-video comments (1,600+) as well.

Early on we realised there were so many great discussions and incredible replies that were going to be easy to miss, so we created our /gold/ page to highlight them. 

As more and more comments come in, we save them on a Trello board so that when we do update the page, we have quite a few comments to add at once.

Today we've refreshed the gold page, adding things like:

- Kevin's smart tip on getting more YouTube views
- How Purushottam increased clicks on his affiliate inks
- Glenn shared how he creates exceptional content for clients (even in niches he isn't familiar with)

There's much more, but part of the fun is in seeing all of the headlines on our gold page at once and clicking on those that interest you.

Thanks to all who stop by our community each and every day.

If you found value in someone's comments, please do let them know!

After a very rough year for me (Glen) offline - easily the worst of my life - things have admittedly been quiet regarding SEO Blueprint updates.

Because of this I made sure we didn't open the doors to the course during my personal inactivity -- even during what is typically a very lucrative Black Friday / Cyber Monday opportunity.

We have some huge updates coming before the doors open again - including some much requested software we're testing behind the scenes - that I can't wait to share with you.

That said, one person who was a huge help in the community during this time is Kevin Indig, who has been active and invaluable at times in our private Facebook Group.

Kevin was the SEO lead at G2.com when he started helping out, but with today's exciting news he is now Director of SEO at Shopify (!).

Shopify power millions of online stores and are currently trading at an all-time-high on the stock market.

If you missed it, Kevin actually did a great AMA (Ask Me Anything) in our Facebook Group, which you can find here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/seoblueprint/permalink/513903169297826/

Huge congrats to Kevin on a professional level, and an even bigger Thank You from me on a personal one.

You've been more help than you will know. 

Shopify are lucky to have you.

When we first launched SEO Blueprint in the middle of 2019, we thought having comments underneath each video would be enough to satisfy the personal aspect of our offering.

The idea being that we try to teach something to the best of our ability, but if you have any questions, we can help you right where (and when) you have them.

That said, creating a Facebook Group was by far the most requested update from our initial members, and I have to say I'm really glad we ended up launching one a few weeks later.

We'll pass 1,000 discussions in there this year, so we created our /gold/ page as a way to highlight the best of what's being shared.
