The ContentKing Academy is home to in-depth SEO and digital marketing guides, reference material and SEO best practices shared by leading digital marketing professionals.
Hi all, I'm Steven, CCO at ContentKing 👋
Over the past two years we’ve invested thousands of hours in the ContentKing Academy.
Naturally, as an SEO tool provider we do a lot of research. We keep updated on how search engines work, so we can mimic their behaviour as close as possible while monitoring our customers’ websites for SEO issues and changes. While doing so, we document everything we come across and add our own findings, as well as the findings from industry-leading SEOs. The end result? Our academy articles.
While I’ve had a hand in almost all of the articles, I catch myself going back to them often to find details on their inner workings because there’s only so much you can keep in your short term memory (I’m not afraid to admit it 😅).
We’re always looking to improve as a company. That doesn’t just include our app, it also includes ContentKing Academy. We’re continuously improving and updating existing articles, and writing new ones - because if there’s one thing that we can be sure of it’s that the SEO field changes rapidly.
Do you feel anything is missing or needs updating? Do let us know! Our gratitude and ❤️is eternal. And if you catch real gems you may even be rewarded with some swag ;)
Cheers, Steven and the rest of the ContentKing team

This part is so true. If I'm working on a certain area, I use the academy articles just to check if I did it the correct way.
What is the next topic you are going to cover?
@di_ry Hi Igor, thanks for your question! We're continuously updating the Academy, expect new articles and updates on a weekly basis. BTW, if you have any requests for article topics that we should write about do let me know :)
The guys from contenking are doing a perfect job. They cover a lot of important subjects, and I hope they will continue to grow this source of knowledge.
A must for every person who is working in the SEO field!
Pros:
This SEO content is the best, most in-depth and most up to date at this moment.
Thank you for your kind words Daniel - much appreciated. I'll be sure to pass it on to the rest of the team, it'll put a smile on their face. If you have any requests for articles you'd like us to write about, do let us know!
Sure, I can find a lot of this information elsewhere, but it is really handy to have it in one place, in a clear and easy to understand format. Easy to understand!
Pros:
Well thought out content, easy to understand, nice design and helpful to have a lot of information in one place!
As an avid user of ContentKing, I can say its a must have for any company doing content marketing through a blog. The real time monitoring is the killer feature IMO. I highly recommend it!
Thanks Axel! You're definitely right, there's so much more topics we'd like to cover in the Academy section. We started with the fundamentals, and are working hard to extend the it. If you have any requests for article topics, do let me know - in the end the only thing that matters is that we're creating content that people are interesting it, content that's useful for them.
@stevenvvessum Loving it! Congrats! Totally unrelated: How do you guys deal with the currency on the website? I'm trying to figure it out for us @ https://deerdesigner.com but couldn't think of the best way, choosing which currency will be the fixed one, etc. Are you using a plugin, jquery, what? Thanks so much!
The team behind it are relentless in getting things out the door. The dedication really shines through in both the content they produce and the products they build.
Pros:
I’m depth. Sourced from experts. Very up to date and delivered by experts.
Cons:
Some of it is not suited to beginners but to be honest that’s more of a pro nowadays
Thank you Peter for your review - glad you like the Academy! Video is indeed something we haven't really explorer yet, interesting to hear that's a format you'd like :) Thanks!
Thank you for your kind words, and feedback - you have a point with the last updated timestamp. I'll discuss that internally!
And we will continue to improve, update and grow the Academy section for sure :)
Looks promising. Will give it a try. Have few thoughts around its B2B marketing if you guys do it often:-
- Track companies who are actively hiring for roles like "content writers" or "digital marketing" or "SEO" as they are the ones who are investing in this function and more likely to try out your product. You could couple this with other qualification factors like their industry, no of employees, SAAS or not, ecommerce or not.
- You could potentially reach out to companies who have recently launched their apps, websites, online store as they will be more likely to grow it via content.
Have few more thoughts around it but this is something on top of my mind.
Happy to have a chat if you want to go deep dive further on this.

Bookmark worthy content; it's great to have an authoritative source for (technical) SEO items. Hopefully it will keep improving and growing!
Pros:Well written, concise yet thorough explanations of SEO fundamentals.
Cons:There's no way to see if information is up to date, some kind of "last modified" or "last verified" timestamp would be a nice addition.
