seo edu spend graphA few months ago we ran a poll asking SEOs how much they spend on SEO education. With over 200 responses, I wanted to share those results with you now.

The results are literally all over the place. Many spend well over $2,500 annually while many also won't spend a dime on education.

Here is the break down:

  • 25% Spend $2,500 or More
  • 24% Spend $250 - $999
  • 23% Spend $1 - $249
  • 14% Spend $1,000 - $2,499
  • 13% Spend Nothing

I am not surprised by these results, in all honesty, I had no idea what to expect.
