15 #MarketingNerds Episodes to Accompany Our New SEO Guide

We are super excited about our newly revamped SEO Guide. Written by industry experts like Eric Enge, Anne Ahola Ward, Julia McCoy, and Rocco Baldassarre, it is filled with all the information you need to be effective at SEO in 2016.

However, sometimes you want to get your learning on without reading nine million pages. I get it. Which is why I compiled this list of Marketing Nerds episodes so you can listen to the best SEO advice while on the go. Our guide is broken into three sections: SEO Basics, Strategic Thinking and Tactics for SEO, and Getting More Value Out of Your SEO Campaigns, so I choose five must-listen-to podcasts for each section.

Section 1: SEO Basics Mary Bowling on How to Optimize for Local SEO, Including Voice & Mobile Search
