What is Tech SEO Pro?
Tech SEO Pro is a self-paced technical SEO course by Kristina Azarenko, published by MarketingSyrup SEO Academy (MarketingSyrup Digital Inc.). It has 13 modules and more than 66 lessons totalling more than 18 hours, three of which are guest sessions by Erwin Hofman, Sam Torres and Barry Adams. Buyers get lifetime access (defined as the life of the product), free future updates, templates including a technical audit checklist and a prioritisation framework, a member community and a certificate of completion.
How much does it cost?
$697 one-time, or two payments of $357, in US dollars. The academy's terms state that all course sales are final and that there are absolutely no refunds; payment plans must be completed in full. Two related courses are sold as add-ons at checkout: SEO for LLMs: GEO Blueprint and Website Migrations and Redesigns. Neither is included in the $697.
What does it teach?
Technical SEO for people who already handle on-page: crawling, indexing, site architecture, performance, structured data, migrations and auditing, with homework. The site positions the material as relevant in the AI search era, and one guest module covers AI Overviews and their impact on news sites, but AI search as a discipline lives in the separate GEO Blueprint course.
Who is it best for?
The official fit statement is unusually precise: you are already good at on-page SEO but technical SEO is the gap that keeps costing you confidence. SEO specialists, managers, freelancers and consultants at that stage. We agree with it.
