Ahrefs Podcast
Meet the guy behind Detailed.com's viral research articles | Glen Allsopp (Detailed)
25 Jul 2024
Ready for a Masterclass in SEO and content creation? Today's guest is Glen Allsopp, founder of Detailed.com, the SEO Blueprint course, and gaps.com. Glen is an absolute beast when it comes to his content output, and his thorough data studies are shared widely in and out of the SEO world when he publishes them. He also does $40 website audits that sell out immediately when they're open to the public. Glen, who is notoriously private, doesn't normally do podcasts and he never speaks at conferences. That's why this episode of Ahrefs Podcast is audio only. But one thing Glen isn't shy about is sharing his vast SEO and business wisdom with the world.
