We classify courses. We do not manufacture a universal score.

SEO Course Atlas is a curriculum database. Its job is to answer factual buying questions: what is taught, who teaches it, how it is delivered, what it costs, whether access is live, and who the stated audience is.

Source order

1. Official course or provider page.
2. Official community/payment listing where price is visible.
3. Official terms, help or academy pages.
4. Credible third-party material only when an official source does not state the fact; those facts are labelled.

What we classify

Curriculum focus, delivery format, live access, community access, tools/templates, certificate status, price snapshot and stated audience fit.

What we do not infer

We do not invent course hours, completion rates, student outcomes or hidden modules. “Not stated” stays “not stated.” We do not treat the presence of the word AI on a sales page as proof that AI search is a core curriculum.

Freshness

The base dataset was checked 9 September 2026. AI SEO Rainmakers was rechecked against the live Skool listing on 10 September 2026 because its price ladder changes with membership growth.

Why there is no overall score

A single number collapses incompatible buying goals. A beginner, technical specialist, agency owner and affiliate operator can rationally choose different courses from the same evidence.
