The BEST free high-quality SEO training?

[Kurt]

Besides Matthew, who else do you trust? One of the first impressions I had of you 20+ years ago was that you knew SEO so I think I can trust who you trust.

My use of "trust" is more about methods and strategies than something like "honesty". I just want to make sure it's clear I'm not saying anyone is or isn't a "scam".

It's been a while since I really "followed" anyone, although I'm still on Matthew's list. I don't do a lot of "conventional" Google SEO any more, but when I need to know something specific I'll do a deep-dive into a specific topic more than specific people, trying to get a handle on any recent trends.

An example of this may be, "are expired social media accounts still good for linking"? But my experience allows me to do these things and this may not be good strategies for newbies who may not know the right questions to ask.

I'll add some more comments on this thread:
