    Hi.. I am Into SEO since last one year.

    Today I was wondering if I can do some Globally Recognised SEO Course. Does anyone know any Certified SEO course that one could Opt for?? Either Online or Local?? My only Priority is that it should be Globally Recognised.

    Anyone has Any Idea??? Please Let me Know!!

    Probably not because by the time they printed and sent the certificate your knowledge will be hopelessly outdated.

    yes.. you are right.

    But still Any certificate would help me in future by adding upto my Resume.

    Also Knowledge Gained is always helpful.

    A certificate is just a piece of paper meaning you had the persistance to sit out a stupid exam. Around 40% of top CEOs don't have any form of official education. Don't think you need a piece of paper to fill your resume. Real results tell much more about you. Rather than learning about SEO, actually do some SEO and collect proof about the results. That will be much more impressive to a potential employer than a piece of paper saying you have some theoretical knowledge.

    In the field of SEO certifications hardly matters. Still if you are interested, just search SEO certificates in google, but my advice will be not to go for any such certifications. In case you are into PPC, you must go for Google Adwords certification, rest there is no as such globally recognized diploma or certification in SEO.

    Ofcourse there are some websites providing the SEO certificates. You may appear and get the certificate BUT Google is updating its algorithm and day to day so many SEO activities are changing. So when u appeared for the exam that knowledge is for that time only .. what abt future??

    My concern is just keep in tocuh with the SEO chat forums, expert author articless, BLOGS to brush up your SEO knowledge. Implement the new issues coming up to your website and see the results. IF YOU WIN IN TERMS OF RANKING THAT IS THE ONLY CERTIFICATE FOR YOUR WORK.
