SEO Simplified empowers real people like you with the knowledge needed to increase your traffic from Google and achieve meaningful SEO success… without the usual nonsense.
Real strategies. Real tactics. Real results. No Fluff. No Nonsense.
SEO isn’t difficult or Complex.
Wouldn’t it be nice if someone could just simplify it all?
That’s what you’ll find in SEO Simplified. A simplified approach to SEO for real people that really works.
Search Analysis that Makes Sense
You won’t need any spreadsheets or complicated formulas here. My three search analysis methods are foolproof at helping you identify what to write about, and how to write it.
Evaluate Competition, Win Featured Snippets, & More
We crammed in the stuff that really matters for SEO including how to win snippets, outrank the competition, organize content on your site, and a whole lot more.
Technical SEO
Simplified
We skip the stuff that doesn’t matter and get right to the stuff that does so you can focus less on the technical stuff and focus on creating exactly what Google wants.
Hi! My name is Doug…
I started my first website in 2005 and by 2007 my website was bringing in over 100,000 pageviews per month. Since then I’ve created over a dozen websites that have grown into businesses fueled entirely by organic traffic from Google.
I’ve had a long career centered around SEO and digital content marketing. I’ve worked in large agencies, managing hundreds of accounts as the Director of Marketing and SEO Manager.
Here at Convology I take my knowledge and passion for digital entrepreneurship and help people just like you to see that same success through my courses, tutorials, and Membership.
SEO Simplified is a simplified, straight to the point, and real approach to succeeding at SEO that I put together to help bring sense to this misunderstood process.
I have no idea what I’m doing. Is this course for me?
Yes! That’s exactly why I made this course. There are so many “gurus” out there teaching wacky SEO nonsense that doesn’t work in 2024 and also some really great SEO courses out there that teach the right stuff, but overcomplicate everything to the extent that the entire point is lost and you end up focusing on the PROCESS and not the RESULT.
If any of this sounds like you, this course was made for you
If any of this sounds like you,
this course is NOT for you
What’s Included in SEO Simplified?
Here’s a list of all of the lessons included in the course. I want to be totally transparent with you so that you know what to expect.
Module 1: SEO Fundamentals You Can’t Ignore

Module 3: Content Creation the “Real” Way

Module 4: Technical SEO Simplified
- Properly Configuring Your SEO Plugin

- Google Search Console
This topic is really important to me because most website owners give up because they can’t figure out how to get past the hurdle of getting traffic from Google. This ends up hamstringing the entire site, which in most cases is a business you’re trying to start and grow.
It doesn’t have to be that way!
Failing to understand how SEO -really- works leads to a failure to understand how digital marketing works, how sales works, and how scaling a business works.
Personally, I think the first three lessons alone contain the most important information website owners need to make sure they understand. The rest is just building upon those very simple, yet almost always ignored or misunderstood, concepts.
