Funny, engaging and highly informative.

I've been listening to The Recipe for SEO Success Podcast for a number of years and never tire of the content, or Kate's dulcet tones. It's an incredible resource for both SEO newbies and the more tech-savvy. Sometimes it's hard to believe it's free.

Although there's the occasional 'techie' episode, fledgling SEOers will still find them useful so don't skip ahead. I guarantee Kate and her guests will make the driest of topics moist and easy to swallow. Funny, engaging and highly informative. Keep them coming.

Cyrus Shepherd and Kate Toon rockin’ 2019

I have just been introduced to Kate tune and listened to the first podcast today with Cyrus Shepherd and these guys rocked it. Packed in so many value balms to one short podcast and left me with a long ‘to do’ list. When it comes to SEO the learning never stops, but these guys are great guides. And where a key term was discussed Kate was able to refer to a previous Podcast that covered that particular topic. Based on the high quality of this one Podcast I look forward to listening to some of the previous ones. Thank you for putting these together.
