Hey TFF,

I have been wanting to go through the free guides offered by Quick Sprout and Moz for some time now but I never got to it.

Yesterday I decided that I would finally start with just one guide, read it until completion, then repeat.

My plan is to read one guide a day.

I was already going through the guide I chose to begin with today, but I felt that I'd better share them with you all here too. Maybe some of you would appreciate it and participate, which would make it a bit more fun!

Remember, they're completely free and available right now! Even more important though, in my opinion, is that they were created by experts. People you can trust and people who do know what they are talking about.

So here they are, the Quick Sprout and Moz guides...

The Quick Sprout Guides:

  1. The Beginners Guide To Online Marketing: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-beginners-guide-to-online-marketing/
  2. The Complete Guide To Understanding Consumer Psychology: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-complete-guide-to-understand-customer-psychology/
  3. The Definitive Guide To Copywriting: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-definitive-guide-to-copywriting/
  4. The Complete Guide To Building Your Blog Audience: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-complete-guide-to-building-your-blog-audience/
  5. The Advanced Guide To Content Marketing: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-advanced-guide-to-content-marketing/
  6. The Definitive Guide To Landing Page Optimization: http://www.quicksprout.com/landing-page-optimization/
  7. Double Your Traffic In 30 Days: http://www.quicksprout.com/double-your-traffic-in-30-days/
  8. Double Your Conversions In 30 Days: http://www.quicksprout.com/double-your-conversions-in-30-days/
  9. The Advanced Guide To SEO: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-advanced-guide-to-seo/
  10. The Advanced Guide To Link Building: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-advanced-guide-to-link-building/
  11. The Definitive Guide To Growth Hacking: http://www.quicksprout.com/the-definitive-guide-to-growth-hacking/
The Moz Guides:

  1. The Beginners Guide To SEO: http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo
  2. The Beginners Guide To Social Media: http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-social-media
So those are all the guides and there are 13 in total! My plan is to read them all within the next 13 days.

Alright I'm about to continue where I started off and I hope a few others will get started too!

PS: It's best to read Moz's "Beginners Guide To SEO" before reading Quick Sprout's "Advanced Guide To SEO".
