COURSE DESCRIPTION

Why Should You Attend This SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Certification Program Series?

Being found on Google and other search engines touches every part of your marketing strategy and can often be an expensive investment through outside resources which is why companies spent $13.5 billion on search engine marketing in 2008 - a number that is expected to increase to $26 billion by 2013 in North America alone.

Are OMI Certification programs accredited?

The Online Marketing Institute has been involved in online education for digital marketing longer than nearly all other organizations in the space. To address the topic of accreditation, since there is no accrediting body, OMI has gained accreditation from the States of California and Colorado.

  • The Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB)
  • Direct Marketing Association (DMA)
  • Email Experience Council (EEC)
