So honored to be a part of this community. Every week I meet and learn from some of the most brilliant minds in digital marketing from all over the world.
Traffic Think Tank is one of the few online marketing communities that I check on a daily basis. It’s excellent.
@fighto and it's better for having you inside it, Paul (not to mention the amazing video content you produced inside the Academy!).
a really solid community ... props to @nick_eubanks @matthewbarby @ianhowells for putting it all together.
I really like the concept, the price is not insignificant. Do you have more concrete ROI examples, or any sort of trial or freemium feature? Otherwise the barrier to conversion customer seems really high.
@lnchoi Hey Ellen - a few folks use what they learn to go get new jobs ( https://twitter.com/ianhowells/s... ), which would make any ROI number seem pretty wild. Others get big benefit out of getting a second set of eyes on stuff like a migration plan (like Sabra mentioned earlier in the comments), which would otherwise require an outside consultant or friend who'd take a look as a favor. Otherwise I think the simplest way is just cost vs time. I can go down a rabbit hole Googling for info and seeing takes that contradict each other... or just get feedback from a community of people that are all paying a price at a level where we're essentially guaranteeing that everyone's serious. The last bit would be what value you place on educational content. It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea, but the folks who put time into the community aspect get the most out of networking, and a lot of others just keep coming back to consume content. Hopefully that helps!
I’ve been a part of this community for over a year and it’s been amazing and I’ll tell you why. The slack group keeps me up-to-date on what’s happening in SEO as well as online marketing in general.
When the Academy was launched it took everything to a whole new level. The amount of education in there is like nowhere else I’ve seen. There’s such a wide variety of video training and the search makes it easy to find. A need for any SEO, beginners to seasoned vets.
@kensavage thanks, Ken! Really appreciate it and REALLY glad you like the new Academy - lots of time went into building that and we're going to be adding a ton more features to it soon, too!
@kensavage really appreciate all you contribute to this community Ken. It wouldn’t be the same without you.
One of the best investments I made! A seriously amazing, welcoming, and knowledgeable group of teachers and members. Completely recommend this to anyone who wants to get serious about SEO. @matthewbarby, @nick_eubanks , and @ianhowells helped me during a very complex website redesign and the ability to be able to ask questions at any time and receive actionable advice was so valuable to our successful website redesign/
I've been a member of TTT almost from the beginning. It's a great place to get SEO and online marketing questions answered, and the videos help me keep on top of everything. The Stay Updated channel is worth it just by itself as I use it to keep on top of all the latest search related news and updates instead of getting distracted by checking Twitter.
@nickswan Ha, thanks Nick. Glad we can help keep you from getting sucked into SEO Twitter!
Been a part of TTT for a year now. @matthewbarby, @nick_eubanks and @ianhowells have done a great job of building something that's exceptional. If you are into SEO (or marketing), this is the community that you've been missing your whole life!
@matthewbarby @ianhowells thank you so much @parinfuture I’m thrilled to hear you’re finding our little corner of the Internet useful :)
Hey Product Hunt 👋🏻
Along with @nick_eubanks and @ianhowells, we’re the founding team of Traffic Think Tank. We first launched as a private Slack community back in 2018 and since then we’ve been hard at work to build on the strong community. This is where our new launch comes in…
We’re excited to share with you the Traffic Think Tank Academy. This is our online learning platform where respected names in SEO & growth spill the beans on the exact processes, tactics, and strategies they use — giving you a front-row seat.
Here’s what’s inside:
- Filter over 200+ hours of content by topic and skill level to learn the things most valuable to you.
- Speed up webinars, download cheat sheets, review process docs, and get right to work.
- Get 1:1 help with monthly live Q&As: ask industry veterans anything and get a direct, specific answer you can use.
We also run weekly live virtual events for members to join, have discounts on a ton of different tools and services in the perks section.
Alongside the Academy, members get access to the Mastermind. This is our online community powered by Slack that’s around 750 members strong. Because it's a paid community, TTT attracts ambitious people who take SEO seriously. Everyone's here to make real connections and get better results.
And because it's private, experts share ideas that aren't published anywhere else. There are no "dumb" questions—and nobody's afraid to dish their best advice.
We look at TTT as a mini accelerator to gain connections, learn from experts and get access to all the content you need to help grow your business.
We’d love to get your feedback on what you think of the new website, thoughts on the product and generally what questions you would have as someone interested in becoming a member (I’m sure you’ll be able to speak to some of our members in the comments below, too!).
Thanks everyone!
Matt.
If you care about SEO, this is by far the best & first community you should join
I'm a TTT member; it's a great community that's extremely active in the DMs. As a company, Intellifluence decided to give back via the TTT academy last year, which allowed us to provide members with a substantial discount. It worked out fantastically.
@cygnusseo and we really appreciate all your support, Joe! When we look through the usage stats from within the community, we're always surprised to see how much of the activity takes place through private DMs - I think this has been one of the reasons why so many members either partner up on projects or buy/sell to one another over time.
How would one get in contact about teaching a course/contributing @matthewbarby? ;-)
@scottmathson Drop us an email through to support@trafficthinktank.com :)
TTT is a great community, useful for anyone in digital marketing that wants to keep learning and discuss their challenges with peers, in private.
@stevenvvessum I think the point you touched on the end is really important. One of the things we've managed to cultivate - at least as much as possible - is a community that trusts one another and is willing to be really open with their problems/solutions knowing that the information stays within TTT.
@stevenvvessum the privacy aspect is so often overlooked and we definitely don’t shine a flashlight on it like we should - so thank you!
@matthewbarby I think Nick, Ian and you have created a place where people feel safe sharing what they're dealing with. So good job!
The community itself is worth the money, but what really takes things to a new level is the way the LMS is organized. No matter what you (or your team) needs to learn, it's in there.
@brendan_hufford the Academy was something that we wanted to do right from the beginning but was such a massive undertaking that it just wasn't feasible. Aside from having all the self-serve billing etc. in there that makes everyone's life a lot easier, the ability for us to just scale up the production of content for members has been invaluable for us. We can get better quality and larger volumes of lessons pushed out in much less time than before.
Fantastic SEO community! Probably one of the best I’ve encountered in my career. Lots of good stuff shared here, and it will cater to every skill level. I’ve been a member since the beginning, and it just gets better every day. I highly recommend it.
@suganthanmn I don’t know what to say man; you’ve become an absolutely staple of this community. It legitimately wouldn’t be the same without you.
It is the place you want to be if you want to learn and interact with the best in the business. And, you will find value irrespective of your knowledge levels and experience. The knowledge bank of tutorials/walkthroughs/webinars coupled with instant, expert advice is worth it's weight in gold IMHO!
@parag_r I hear you - we've toyed with the idea of having on of the lessons from within the Academy on the homepage so people can see what the format etc is like. I'm pretty sure we'll look into doing this shortly.
