SEO for Solopreneurs – Nat Eliason
The minimum maintenance, maximum results guide to putting your traffic & sales on autopilot.
The 80/20 of SEO for Creators & Entrepreneurs
SEO promises passive recurring traffic and revenue. But the industry makes it seem like a horribly complex mix of art and science.
SEO is not that complicated. It’s actually extremely simple if you know the few things to focus on, and the 80%+ of things to completely ignore.
I’ve worked in SEO for over 7 years, built a 7-figure SEO agency, and my entire life is paid for by the SEO traffic my sites passively generate.
I know exactly which levers you can pull as a busy solopreneur to get the maximum results with your limited time, and this course is where I share that knowledge.
Learn SEO this Weekend
Could you spend months reading every SEO blog and watching every YouTube video on SEO? Yes. Do you need to? No.
SEO is extremely easy to waste time on. It’s not clear what to do, so you try to do everything.

And since it’s a choose-your-own adventure style self-paced course, you can work through the pieces you need now, and come back for more whenever you’re ready.
