Cash For Your Business Makes All The Difference. I started raising money for my companies more than 40 years ago and have raised tens of millions of dollars for a variety of projects. Now I teach others how it’s done. Learn asset protection, strategic company formation and how to raise money for your company. I’m the only SEO and Web Design trainer who can help you raise money, protect your assets, and get the capital you need to survive while you wait for organic digital marketing to grow your revenue.

UBFS: The Ultimate
Business Funding
System
Unlike everyone else out there who teaches SEO, website design and digital marketing, I've been in the trenches doing business for many decades, in a diverse set of industries. This means I have a much broader range of skills than others. One of the skills that helped me build several 8-figure companies in my career, and one that keeps me in business even when there's little or no revenue, is strategic business formation planning, asset protection, and raising business capital. Few people know how to do this, but I DO! No matter your industry OR circumstances, I'll show you how to raise as much money as you need or want to build your company to suit your fondest desires!

Fundamentals of
Digital Marketing
If you have zero experience with digital marketing, this is a great place to start! It's a great pre-requisite for the Certified Digital Marketer Course and comes with our Community Forum. The Forum is included when you register for a course or the FREE Affiliatel program. This is where you'll get support and extra training. Based on the courses for which you enroll or whether you're a free participant as an Affiliate, you're assigned access to different levels of support and training in the Forum. It's a great place to connect with like-minded people AND our staff, manager and ME (the company founder)! Registration as an Affiliate or student is required to be a part of our Community.

There's no cost or obligation to register as an Affiliate. Ever. Becoming an Affiliate of Ranking Trainer is one of the quickest ways to generate a recurring monthly income with no upper limit. Better yet, there's almost no learning curve. Registration is free and you'll have instant access to our Forum where you can learn from others and communicate directly with me and my staff.
Local SEO
Local SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is a class all by itself. Typical SEO for an e-commerce website or blog usually requires anywhere from a few months to a year or more of dedicated effort every week before it gains a ranking high enough on the SERP (Search Engine Results Page) to be ranked. Why? Because Google's policies require that it recognizes E-E-A-T (Experience-Expertise-Authoritativeness and Trust) before allowing the website to be found. Not so with Local SEO! Local SEO is similar to the old Yellow Pages. Through GBP (Google Business Profile) any company servicing local customers can be ranked very quickly (in hours or days, not months or years). Local SEO is one of our specialties!
National & Intl SEO
To reach an audience beyond your local area, or if you don't qualify for a GBP (Google Business Provile), you need a more broad approach that will reach a national or international audience regardless of your country of origin. This is another area in which we excel. It requires more time and a continuous effort to achieve a top ranking but the traffic, conversions and revenue you gain from building up organic search volume is so worth it! Talk to us about how we can help you meet and exceed your goals for your website, whether it's for e-commerce, a blog, or any other type of website.
Website Design
There's simply no reason to have an out-of-date website that doesn't conform to modern design standards. If you're not thrilled and proud to show off your website to everyone you meet, something's wrong! We'll rebuild, redesign or start fresh with an incredible online presence that you can be proud of. The design isn't just about beauty, it also has to load lightning-fast and provide excellent UI and UX. What is UI and UX? It's User Interface and User Experience. All of our sites meet the best standards in the industry so will yours, if we build it!
