# SEO training: on your website, not on slides.

I train marketing teams, copywriters and business owners. The programme starts from your website and your numbers: you learn by fixing real pages.

## Who is SEO training for?

SEO training is for people who write, publish or make decisions for a website: marketing teams, copywriters, project managers, business owners. It gives them the reference points to produce pages that rank and to manage a provider.

The problem

## Why training changes nothing.

Symptom 1

### Too general

Two days of theory that applies to everyone, so nobody can apply it on Monday morning.

Symptom 2

### Too technical

Talking about tags to people whose job is to write or sell.

Symptom 3

### No follow-up

A week later, old habits return. Nobody checks what has been applied.

Three weeks after a training course, what's left?

Your competitors all look alike. Good.

**Fig. 1.** Your market, as Google sees it. (You're the purple one. Or you could be.)

The answer

## How I build a training course.

The content depends on who's in the room. We define it together beforehand.

1. **The diagnosis.** A conversation to find out your level, your website and what you want to be able to do afterwards.
2. **The programme.** Selected modules: keyword research, writing, technical, tracking.
3. **Practice.** Every concept is applied immediately to your own pages.
4. **Follow-up.** A check-in a few weeks later to review what has been put in place.

In detail

## What the SEO training includes.

### A questionnaire before the session

Each participant tells me their role, what they publish and what they struggle with.

### A read-through of your website

I go through your pages and analytics before coming, to choose the examples.

### Modules à la carte

Keywords, writing, site structure, internal linking, measurement: we keep what's useful to your team.

### Corrected exercises

Everyone rewrites a title, an outline or a page of the site, and I correct it in front of the group.

### Your working documents

You leave with a brief template and a checklist adapted to your page types.

### Feedback on your publications

At the follow-up check-in, I review the pages published since the session and say what to adjust.

Making the choice

## Train the team, delegate everything, or learn alone?

|  | Training on your website | Hand everything to a provider | Learn alone online |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| What the team learns | To apply the rules to its own pages | Nothing, the know-how stays with the provider | General notions, to sort through yourself |
| Time required from the team | A few sessions, then practice | Very little | A lot, with no structure |
| Who corrects mistakes | I review the exercises during the session | The provider, without explaining | Nobody |
| What's left afterwards | Reflexes and templates | Dependence on the contract | Scattered notes |
| Suits you if | You publish often in-house | You have nobody to write | Only one person wants to discover the subject |

Training the team and calling on a provider aren't mutually exclusive. A trained team knows what it can do alone and what it should hand over.

### It's for you if…

- Your copywriters publish regularly and the pages stay barely visible on Google
- You're preparing a redesign and the team needs to know the rules before writing
- You've just hired someone in marketing who has to take charge of the website
- You want to review your agency's work with an informed eye

### It's not for you if…

- Nobody on the team publishes on the website
- You want a lecture with no exercises
- You expect a list of tricks to get round Google's rules
- You can't show me any of the site's analytics

In pictures

## What well-run SEO looks like.

**On stage.** SEO explained to business owners, without jargon.

**A Google Business Profile.** 557 interactions between April and September 2026, up every month.

**ChatGPT.** “Very present on GEO, EEAT and conversational search topics.”

**Four books.** What I recommend is published, dated and signed.

In practice

## What you get.

- A programme tailored to your team
- Exercises on your own website
- Reusable templates (briefs, checklists)
- A follow-up check-in after the training
- A trainer who practises every day

Pricing

## How much does SEO training cost?

I price the training once the programme is defined. Here's what makes the amount vary.

- The number of modules chosen
- The difference in level between participants
- The analysis work on your pages before the session
- The follow-up you want after the training

Who you're talking to

## Your SEO consultant: a business owner, not just an SEO.

My name is Kévin Papot. More than fifteen years in the job, four co-written books, and the Newp agency, co-founded in Charente. I also run my own online shops, in France and internationally: one of them went from zero to a million visits a month.

**Before we talk tags, we talk margin, average basket and profitability.** When you book a call, I'm the one who picks up.

FAQ

## SEO training: frequently asked questions.

In person or remote?

Both. In person at your premises, or by video call in half-day sessions.

For how many people?

From one to about ten. Beyond that, you lose practice time.

Can the training be funded?

It depends on your situation and your funding body. We check this together before scheduling the session.

Who should attend the SEO training?

The people who write and publish on the website, and the person who signs off their work. If the business owner attends the start, they then know what to ask of the team.

Can beginners and advanced profiles be mixed?

Yes, if the gap stays reasonable. When it's too wide, I suggest two groups, so everyone moves at their own pace.

What access do you need before the session?

I ask to view your analytics and your Google search data, with no editing rights. I use them to choose which pages to work on.

Does the training cover writing with AI?

Yes, if your team uses it. I show how to review and enrich a text produced by ChatGPT or Mistral, so it brings information specific to your business.

Our website is managed by a web agency. Is the training still useful?

Yes. Your team learns what's down to them, such as copy and titles, and what they should ask the agency for.

Who runs the training?

Me, from start to finish. I've been doing SEO for fifteen years, I've co-written four books and I run my own online shops. The examples come from that day-to-day work.
