Terms of Participation

COOPERATION

We are committed to providing all participants in SEO That Works with a positive experience. Thus, Backlinko LLC may, at its sole discretion, limit, suspend, or terminate your participation in any of its programs without refund or forgiveness of remaining monthly payments if:

you become disruptive or difficult to work with;
fail to follow the Program guidelines; or,
you impair the participation of Program instructors or participants in the Program.

FACEBOOK/MASTERMIND GROUP CODE OF CONDUCT

The Backlinko private Facebook community is a place for our students to grow, learn and come together.
Here are a few straightforward guidelines that will help everyone get the most from the group.

The group is for…

  1. Posting questions you have about the course materials.
  2. Publishing helpful tutorials, case studies, and tips that will help the group grow.
  3. Helping other members.
  4. Questions or comments you have unrelated to the course, but is on the topic of internet marketing.

The group is not for…

  1. Customer support questions (ie. can’t log in, questions about the course schedule, etc.). Please send support questions to support@backlinko.com and we’ll get right on it.
  2. The Backlinko Mastermind Community is about the community. While we’ll be popping in now and then with words of encouragement, this is not a place to ask questions directly to Brian or tag him in posts. While Brian would love to answer everyone’s questions, it’s simply not possible. If you have a question or comment for Brian, please send it to support@backlinko.com.
  3. Posting feedback about Backlinko’s courses. Constructive suggestions are welcomed. However, Backlinko students are busy professionals, and generally don’t have time to read individual opinions on the course materials. Any feedback should be sent to support@backlinko.com.
  4. Posting self-promotional content. If there’s something that you think the group would find helpful, but you have a financial involvement in it, please send an email to support@backlinko.com before publishing it.
  5. Posting group buys (example: “Hey, let’s all buy an Ahrefs account”).

UNLIMITED CONSULTING

SEO That Works Complete students are entitled to 30 days of unlimited consulting directly with Brian Dean. If you have a consulting question, please send it to support@seothatworks.com and we will take care of it from there.

A few guidelines regarding Unlimited Consulting:

We reserve the right to refuse answering any question for any reason (for example, if a conflict of interest arises).
Only one consulting question per submission.
Please wait to hear back from Brian on your last question before submitting another question.
Backlinko LLC reserves the right to revoke Unlimited Consulting at its discretion (for example, in the case of abuse or outstanding installment payments).
