Questions about this course

Does buying links work?
It works until the day it takes the site down. The course shows the path that holds: earned links, relationships and press. It is slower and it doesn't come back to haunt you.
Does it work for a small business?
It does. Small businesses usually have a story and data the press wants. The course teaches you to spot it and turn it into coverage.
