FAQs
What Is an SEO Certificate?
An SEO certificate is a document that confirms that you have successfully completed an online SEO course or training. It is usually issued in the form of a PDF document so you can attach it to your CV or LinkedIn profile. 
Is SEO Certification Worth It?
If you are just starting or want to improve your qualifications, a structured program taught by an SEO specialist can be a good idea.
If you already have a lot of SEO experience, clients, and proven SEO successes, you probably can do without it.
True SEO expertise comes through a combination of:

• Theoretical training or learning
  
• Hands-on experience 
  
• Getting outstanding results for real-world businesses
  

While SEO courses and certificates may be helpful, they are not enough to make you an SEO expert. 
Does Google Have an SEO Certification?
Google does not provide any kind of general SEO specialist certification. However, they do recommend some SEO courses and have their own learning platform called Digital Garage, where you can improve your knowledge in the areas of digital marketing, career development, and data analysis.
How Much Does SEO Certification Cost?
The costs for certifications range from nothing to thousands of dollars. The price tag does not always reflect the value of the course, so make sure to pick a course created by a reliable institution and taught by an industry-acknowledged SEO expert. 
How to Get an SEO Certification?
A simple way to get certified in SEO is to take some of the free courses provided by Semrush Academy.
You can take courses and get certifications in beginner SEO, advanced SEO, link building, competitive analysis, keyword research, content marketing, and much more.
