Zacc Dukowitz
This was the best year by far for our organic traffic and it was thanks to the systems and processes I’ve gotten from GSA. We grew organic traffic by 59% YoY, from 262,000 to 417,000. Thanks so much for helping me achieve these results!

Dan Ansaldo
It would be difficult to overemphasize the quality of this Academy! Not only does it contain a ton of videos and templates that show you the “how” and the “why” behind SEO, the twice-weekly coaching calls are invaluable. Even at a low estimate, the coaching calls are worth five times the price of the course. So much value! Plus, the group is very welcoming and helpful. Everyone is looking out for everyone else. You don’t find that very often.

What Our Members Say
We have earned a 9.7 NPS score for our program. Here's why:
Gloria Ochoa
“Got my first $1,000/mo client!”
Dalton Ousley
I am currently starting my SEO/digital marketing agency and feel so much more confident after taking this course. I feel as if Nathan and I would get along great if we ever met in person! Down-to-earth guy who serves as a role model for me. Thanks Nathan.
Paul Letourneau
I’ve been watching YouTube SEO videos for years. When I finally decided to join a group, Gotch SEO was the only one I considered. Nathan’s videos have helped me so much over the years with my own sites and client sites, I naturally wanted to join Gotch and learn more from the SEO Master himself. I haven’t always followed a specific process and Gotch SEO Academy has helped me develop a repeatable process that helps my sites gain traffic while I sleep.
Jared Tangir
Gotch SEO Academy has empowered me to believe in myself and my SEO abilities. The coaching calls are invaluable. If I understood the value of the coaching calls before joining … I would’ve paid double.
Jacob Landis-Eigsti
Gotch SEO Academy is SO thorough and packed with an incredible amount of value. I’m so glad I enrolled, and I’ve gone from page 15 to page 2 in one month.
Travis Descoteaux
I’ve gone through the complete training, and it’s amazing. I’m starting from an absolute 0 in SEO. The SEO Specialist course helped me learn every aspect of SEO. The SEO Expert course then laid out an entire step-by-step plan with SOPs that I need to follow to rank. I’m thankful to have this.
Anatoliy Chistov
I’ve been following Nathan for the past 3 years and I believe he is one of the best SEOs on planet earth. Anybody who is thinking about his Academy, it’s one of the best investments I’ve made in my life and definitely my business.
Noah Kain
The Gotch Academy provides unbelievable value. I don’t think I could even put a price on how valuable it is. Best investment I’ve ever made and it’s not even close.
Simon Kensington-Fellows
I’ve been doing SEO for the last 5 years and know you absolutely have to keep up to date. If you’re looking to get started in SEO or expand your knowledge, I would thoroughly recommend Gotch SEO Academy.
Angie Weldon
I had a whole bunch of experience with the other (SEO) courses on the market. I was so thankful to have found Gotch Academy.
Graeme Knight
I would like to build an SEO and online consultancy and ultimately support customers with the knowledge and experience that I gain. It is important to me that this is done in a genuine way that offers a high degree of quality. This is why I invested in Gotch SEO Academy.
Jonathon Henderson
When I got inside Nathan’s course, I used his technical audit on my own website first and now I rank #1 for Georgia SEO.
Samantha Blake
I am blown away!!! I cannot even believe all the resources, support, and community that is available within GSA. I am totally kicking my butt for not becoming a member when I started binge watching your youtube videos in 2020. The live calls are incredible. I would never have expected GSA to have this much value. The program is a steal and it especially is if you pay in 6 months. I have spent a lot of money on online courses and group coaching (I know you dont really call GSA that) in the past, and this is 100 times better than anything I have ever purchased to grow my business. I could seriously talk about how excited, inspired, and motivated I am all day haha. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Phil Mackie
Been enjoying the support and the community for about 18 months… GSA has more than paid for itself at this point.
Flemming Berndt
I think the fact that I can work so closely with someone who is proven to be successful in SEO + knows the business side of things is a great value and in my opinion absolutely worth the money.
Daniel Twiss
I cannot speak more highly of this program. The course structure and support are more than I ever expected, with weekly communication in the community from a network of experts to provide constant updates on what is going on in the industry. If you want to understand the deep part of SEO, this is a must. The best part is knowing what is needed to fix issues and giving my customers the best results possible. I recommend this platform to anyone who is interested in mastering SEO and the skills needed to go out on your own.
Elizabeth Wing
It really is a way to learn and implement SEO. Everything is there for success.
Nick Dyer
The GSA community has been amazing. It’s so much easier to succeed when you’re surrounded and supported by like-minded people. The quality and value of the information I’ve learned have given me more confidence in my SEO skills.
Brett Simpson
Just landed my biggest SEO client @3k per month after running a 2k SEO audit following the training here. A big shout out to Nathan, thanks man.
Rodolfo Icaza
The content of the academy is pure gold. The information that Nathan provides is top quality for those who want to start with solid foundations in the world of SEO, but also the community that he has generated makes it much more entertaining. Added to that, the weekly calls and having access to exchange questions live make me feel very confident and happy that I made the decision to invest in this program.
Amandeep Singh
I checked out Nathan’s free tutorials before joining his paid course, and believe me, his paid course is worth every single penny.
Alan Silvestri
Nathan is also active in the group which makes it even better. You basically have access to one of the best SEOs in the industry. This alone is worth the price! Other than all this, I immediately took action with what I learned in Gotch SEO Academy on one of my affiliate sites, all I’m going to say is that from the past year I’ve gotten a 380% increase in organic traffic. The site went from making $100-200/month to $1000+/month on autopilot.
Kester Browne
I have learned more than I expected, plus the calls two times a week are invaluable. Learn a lot by listening to other members.
Dan Morton
If you’re really serious about learning SEO and learning how to do it the RIGHT way, Gotch SEO Academy is the place for you.
Leonard Parker
I have transitioned from a freelancer to agency owner and the Gotch SEO Academy and community has played a large role in helping me make that transition.
Jeff Tilley
I was doing blogging in that or another form for the last 5 years. I have already learned a lot myself, but when I’ve joined the academy, I’ve completely changed my perspective on how SEO (and blogging) should be done. I started to believe that I can rank for keywords, that I was throwing away before, simply because I I didn’t know how to do backlinks and didn’t have a transparency on my SEO. Thank you Nathan. You are doing a big job of supporting small businesses. You are doing more than you think…
Gal Dorado Olivares
The videos in this SEO program are short, sweet, and loaded with useful content. It’s not just about SEO; it’s stuff you can use in everyday life, too. As a newbie, I find the information super easy to digest. I’m loving the fact that they’re asking for feedback at this stage of the course—it shows they really care. I’m stoked to keep learning and, even more, to put it into action!
Kyle Klaver
Within the first month, the course paid for itself through client SEO. The ROI was huge! Can’t recommend it enough.
Peter Hiebl
A big game-changer for me doing SEO with clients.
Nirav Somani
One of the best epic courses on SEO globally. Thank You.
Ahmed Hassan
If you want to learn SEO you’ll find 1000 ways to learn it for free BUT the knowledge will be scattered, you’ll learn different tactics from different people that might not fit together, and it’ll take much longer than with a structured approach like Nathan teaches in his program. Not to mention that being certified by Gotch SEO Academy will definitely make you stand out from others, especially on Linked In after you’ve showcased the certification on your profile.
Rob Timmermann
It’s a really well-put-together course. It’s good for people who are just getting started or SEO experts.
Dan Ansaldo
It would be difficult to overemphasize the quality of this Academy! Not only does it contain a ton of videos and templates that show you the “how” and the “why” behind SEO, the twice-weekly coaching calls are invaluable. Even at a low estimate, the coaching calls are worth five times the price of the course. So much value! Plus, the group is very welcoming and helpful. Everyone is looking out for everyone else. You don’t find that very often.
Garry Meston
Don’t dare go into the industry without getting education from Gotch SEO Academy.
Aaron Traub
I finally feel like I’m doing proper SEO work.
Christopher Wicklander
Best investment I’ve made and not only has it helped me in business — it is also life changing.
Maggie McTavish
I feel very supported along the way. The SOPs, video tutorials and group resources are incredibly valuable.
Kur Win
It’s priceless – I’ve already made all my GSA investment back from client work.
Stephen Alberts
The best thing I like about the course is the videos are 2, 3, or 5-minutes long which is great if you’re busy or don’t have a ton of time. But I’ve got a ton of value from it.
Macallister Bishop
Once you’re here, you feel like you’re a part of a community – a community of great people who’s unified goal is to help each other get better and learn.
Brett Helling
I need to live in the strategic role and delegate to a team and that’s where GSA just takes the heavy lifting off me having to figure out how to do that myself… it’s been a game-changer.
Marcio Resende
Worth every minute spent in training. This was a Game Changer for me!
Daniel Barbour
Nathan’s advice on mindset is crucial, keep an awareness of your thoughts and expect that this journey will take time as you learn and grow. Apply the concepts from the course, get results, and your confidence will explode.
Daniel Shepherd
I highly recommend signing up for Gotch SEO Academy. All of the content is explained very well through video presentations. There is also an active community where you can ask questions to any problems you might be having.
Toni JV
Gotch SEO Academy has not only given me the proven formulas and tools to actually rank a website and start an SEO agency, but it has also given me the safety of being able to ask questions in the community which is great when starting to work with clients for the first time to take away some of the pressure.
Jaime Mantilla
Working with GSA has been amazing not only from the business perspective but also from the personal growth perspective. The skills that one learns in this program can’t be taken away and will follow you for the rest of your life. It is a no-brainer, so just jump in!
Michael Monyak
Thank you so much, Nathan!! You have truly transformed my life with REAL SEO training that is not just a guessing game or based on “tricks”. I am very thankful for you and your advice and for helping me to excel in my business and life! Your advice on SEO and marketing also applies to life and I can’t imagine where my life would be at right now because you have guided me in the right direction!!
Michael Smeth
Gotch SEO Academy has been amazing. Nathan is an invaluable sounding board. His systems have helped me immensely. I had a lot of the knowledge, but not in a way that would allow me to repeat and scale the processes out over multiple websites.
Amber Goetz
I’m blown away by the tiny things already that I’ve been missing all of these years that I’m starting to implement and are making a big difference. Almost done with the Agency Acelerator and I’m so glad I did this course so far!
George Brindusescu
I like it because the videos are well done and easy to understand, and you also have interactivity in your calling sessions.
Joe Lawrence
Everything is shared to you in little bite-sized pieces where you can implement what you’re being taught quickly. This is a REAL course that delivers REAL results from someone that’s actually ranking really well on Google.
Nick Valle II
This course has phenomenal value. I appreciated that everything is packaged together truly to serve people who are looking to learn SEO.
Sid Sharma
The content is very informative, short & really easy to understand especially as a beginner. And the coaching calls twice a week are the cherry on top.
John Brewster
The level of information in the course is unparalleled to anything I have seen so far. In addition, the coaching calls are worth their weight in gold, being able to talk with Nathan directly is amazing.
Zacc Dukowitz
This was the best year by far for our organic traffic and it was thanks to the systems and processes I’ve gotten from GSA. We grew organic traffic by 59% YoY, from 262,000 to 417,000. Thanks so much for helping me achieve these results!
Luis Balmaceda
I can see how this course will save me years of trying things on my own. That alone is worth 6 figures, in my opinion.
Chris Dreyer
There are so many courses out there trying to sell you SEO instruction. It’s very clear that Nathan Gotch is an expert and Gotch SEO Academy is ahead of the game.
Andrew Nicholls
This training can get me where I want to be in life and in business.
Joe Edgley
Gotch SEO Academy has been so valuable in breaking down and analyzing each element of an SEO campaign to take be able to approach each campaign with a step-by-step process with confidence.
Josh Kimmes
I’d been doing SEO for about 5 years, and I felt like my skillset had plateaued. I was determined to find a paid course that I felt would help excel my growth, and Gotch SEO Academy did just that. It has been incredibly valuable for my business. I feel much more confident in my knowledge, skillset, and I know I have resources behind me when I come across something I don’t know.
Lexie Buhrandt
Course videos are straightforward and easy to follow. The community is great & answers questions when needed. Processes are simple to follow. I also really like the weekly calls, it gives you a chance to ask questions if they are not answered in the community!
Punit Tongia
After I joined the Gotch SEO Academy, I developed a thorough grasp of SEO. Have a good understanding of how to grow in the agency model. I am extremely satisfied with what I got and recommend it to anyone who is interested.
Justin Torres
Gotch SEO Academy has meant a lot as I use it on a day to day basis for work. I constantly review the material to apply what I learned.
Bryan Rainey
Gotch SEO Academy helped me start an SEO firm and I’ve already sold 4 paying clients and growing.
Zhanna Komarova
I came to Gotch SEO Academy because thought that getting knowledge from Nathan will shorten the learning curve for years, helps to avoid mistakes, and become a better SEO. But I’ve got so much more than that! The training gives fundamental knowledge of the SEO process, the clear repeatable system of achieving substantial rankings, and structuring the process in the most efficient way. With the help of Gotch Academy from an SEO practitioner, I could make a huge step toward being a professional online marketer, understand the next practical steps and skills to scale my income and success. I would highly recommend Gotch SEO Academy to anyone, who is passionate about online marketing, SEO or just want to promote its own business. Thank you!
Hossein Fard
Love the ongoing support! For a small business like us, it’s super valuable to know we have a trusted source of support anytime we get stuck!
Lesley Van De Mortel
I love the content; it is very detailed, and I can’t believe everything required for SEO. The community is active and helpful, and two weekly mastermind calls are incredibly powerful. I don’t think there is any other platform out there like this. I’m still learning, but I’ve already gained so much knowledge about SEO I’m incredibly grateful. Thanks so much for putting this platform together!
Jeremy Schwegmann
I think it can be very difficult to launch and sustain a full time SEO company when juggling FT job and family. There is a VERY thin margin of error in terms of time and money. Gotch SEO Academy has been a game changer for me, providing me step by step instructions on how to create and launch an SEO business. While I was already aware of some of the content already, having already been in SEO for a few years, there have been so many golden nuggets I’ve never thought of before on my own. The tools and docs provided are gold. The processes and techniques in the course are fantastic. Confident that this course is going to turbo charge my SEO business right out of my day job and finally allow me to provide (spoil) nice things for my family.
Pedro Flores
I joined the academy to brush up on my SEO since I haven’t really been engaged in a while. The training has been awesome. The coaching calls are likewise a wealth of SEO knowledge.
David Fitzmaurice
Since joining I have learned a lot. I think my main weakness was building backlinks and since joining I’ve found a lot of ways to get them. I’ve also built my one pager to get clients in my area and using what I’ve learned in the course so far, my website is ranking number 1 in my area after 2 weeks. I enjoy the classes every Tuesday and Thursday and I’m learning loads.
Brian Pappalardo
Trying to get better at SEO is like drinking through a firehose when you try to do it yourself. This has been really good so far – I’ve completed an audit following your tactics and sold a really nice retainer already that’ll already pay off the cost of the course in 3 months. I think it’s a gamechanger.
Montray Gibson
I am finally able to rank a site I build or the website of another company. This means I can finally start selling leads to local business owners and start my digital marketing journey.
Mel Isaacs
The courses, tools, and coaching calls have all really helped me solidify my knowledge in SEO and given me more confidence in my abilities. The coaching calls are really helpful because they provide real-world examples and Nathan goes over everything in a lot of detail. The program has given me confidence in my ability to start an SEO agency and taught me some really useful tips and tricks for upping my SEO game.
Sonia Beroud
I love the new 2.0 training (can’t wait for more videos!) and the coaching calls are very valuable. Imo, 2 things make GSA stand out compared to other SEO training programs: 1. The training material is actually updated (not the case in all courses, or you have to pay extra for each update). 2. The coaching calls help answer any remaining question and learn from others’ experience & questions.
Chris Beyer
The weekly coaching is incredibly helpful. Group Q&As are helpful. The self-paced structure is a great selling point here.
Colin Melia
It’s an amazing system for any SEO agency.
Brandon Blau
Gotch SEO Academy has helped me grow as a professional while also providing valuable insights and business for my clients. Nothing feels better than having something positive to show for all your hard work. Taking pride in what you do gives you a sense of fulfillment and allows you to appreciate your growth.
Horacio Huizi
The content of the courses speaks for itself. Top tier. But what’s even better is the community. Everyone is super knowledgeable, and you can feel that everyone wants to help genuinely. The weekly calls are worth the price of admission on their own. I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in SEO.
Lazar Belopavlich
Whatever it is that you’re trying to do in SEO – you simply can’t fail with Gotch SEO. Weekly calls, community, and courses are golden. Thank you!
Sagar Thaker
Everything I’ve learned from Gotch SEO Academy has helped me be where I am today. I personally feel I can outrank any website on Google now.
Keval Shah
Using Nathan’s process… I was able to quit my 9-to-5, start my own SEO agency and 2 years in… at this point I’m financially free. I don’t have a boss and have a large roster of clients I’m happy with.
