Got an email from Tim Solou at Ahrefs today (going out to everyone I think) promoting a new Blogging for Business course they are starting. It is free to everyone and they will upgrade your limited (newbie) account to 2 weeks of Standard version if you sign up before the 7th May.
Sign up = https://ahrefs.com/blogging-course
Ahrefs, 2 weeks free, offer open till = 23:59, 6th May
Cost = Free
Basically, join the course with the email address of your limited Ahrefs account before the 7th and get 2 weeks free from the 7th + the course sounds like it might be quite good.
Course contents
01 - THE COMPOUND EFFECT OF CONTENT MARKETING
02 - TWO MAJOR STRATEGIES OF GROWING A BLOG
If you missed the helpful video they put out to get content ideas that are easy to rank, you can see the BHW post here, well worth a watch. I learnt something new from that.
