Graduates from Computer science and other engineering disciplines have a great opportunity to get jobs in SEO. Search Engine Optimization or SEO is a growing business because every business wants its presence online. Hence, companies are egger to recruit SEO experts for ranking their website high in the search engine.

In fact, not just companies but individual bloggers and web-entrepreneurs are also interested in learning in-depth of SEO techniques. Your income totally depends on the ranking of your website in a particular search engine. If you rank high every time then you get more visitors hence more money.

Therefore knowledge of SEO is very important. And if you don’t have knowledge, an SEO training institute can help you.

SEO Training in India

SEO training in India is still in its infancy because it is only restricted in tier-1 cities. You are not going to find schools or institutes for SEO courses or training so easily.

The main reason for this is that knowledge about SEO is still not there. Therefore, only companies which own websites and few bloggers are concerned about SEO.

I have personally visited many SEO schools and institutes in Mumbai and Bangalore. Normally SEO training is given by two kinds of party.

First is school and institutes. If you go there it will be a classroom with just one or two faculty. Instructors are very young, usually fresh college graduates. So they are going to teach SEO for a batch of 5 to 10 students.

Hence, therefore there are no premier or major SEO institutes.

Mainly these schools and institutes are small coaching centers with fewer resources and in return they charge a heavy fee for a course of one month. Second are consultants who are giving SEO training. These training could be one on one or in group to 2 to 3 people.

In some cases, popular blogger and SEO experts give training through Skype. There charges could be less or more than Institutes or schools, it depends.

Therefore, SEO training in India is given by these two ways.

Does SEO Training Worth?

The question is after reading this article, do you think SEO training course is worthwhile.

Yes, only for those individuals who want to make their career in SEO. If you think that you could rank any website on the Google search engine then you could invest in SEO training.

If you think SEO is not your cup of tea then spending huge amount is not worthwhile. Not only job seekers but if you have a blog then also you could take training from SEO experts. It will help your blog to rank high on Google.

So if you are really passionate about SEO then you could take the training.

According to my experience SEO training has some great advantages. I will recommend you not to join a training school because fee is so high and never go to a consultant because they will rob you.

Hence, I recommend you to go a blog consultant who does not charge on hourly basis but for the entire course.
