Our verdict
The honest baseline every paid AI SEO program should be measured against. It is free, conflict free, natively about AI search, and built by someone with a genuinely independent reputation and nothing to upsell. What it is not is a course. There is no teaching, no support and no community, and its quality is only as good as the third party resources it links to. Read this first, then decide whether a paid program adds anything it does not already cover.

Open course website →What this course actually is
LearningAIsearch.com is a free curated learning roadmap built by Aleyda Solis, founder of the consultancy Orainti and of the SEOFOMO newsletter. It launched in July 2025 as a companion to her earlier LearningSEO.io project and organises the AI search field into four areas. These are fundamentals of AI search optimisation across technical, content and brand work, measurement of AI search KPIs, ecommerce and agentic commerce, and the tooling landscape for tracking AI visibility. Rather than producing original video lessons, Solis manually aggregates and links what she judges to be the most reliable free resources on each topic and refreshes the map as the field changes. The site carries no advertising and no paid inclusions, which removes the commercial incentive problems that affect almost every paid program in this category. There is no community, no support, no assignments and no certificate, so it is a reading path rather than a structured course.

Strengths and weaknesses
What it does well
- Completely free with explicitly no ads and no paid inclusions, which is the cleanest incentive structure in this entire category
- Covers AI search natively and comprehensively including measurement and agentic commerce, which paid programs routinely skip
- Built by someone with an unusually verifiable independent reputation and no course to upsell
- Curation means it points at the best primary sources rather than one person's opinions
- Serves as a free benchmark a buyer can use to judge whether a paid program is actually teaching anything new
Where it falls short
- Not a course. No instruction, no structure beyond a reading order, no assessment and no certificate
- No community, no support and no way to ask questions
- Quality depends entirely on the linked third party resources, which vary and can go stale or disappear
- No published refresh cadence, so how current any given section is cannot be verified from the page
- Requires self discipline and enough existing context to make sense of unguided material
How it scores, and why
Value for money is a 10 by definition since it is free and substantive. Instructor authority scores 9 on a long verifiable conference and publishing record combined with the absence of any commercial conflict, the single strongest integrity signal in this set. Currency is 9 on a stated ongoing refresh, capped only because no cadence is published. Curriculum depth is 6 because coverage is broad but it is a link map rather than taught material. Practical application is 5 with no exercises or templates. Support scores 1 because none exists.
Who teaches it
Aleyda Solis. International SEO consultant, speaker and author. Founder of the consultancy Orainti and of the SEOFOMO newsletter, and creator of the free LearningSEO.io roadmap which preceded this project.
One of the most independently verifiable reputations in search. She has a brightonSEO speaker profile, a long documented conference circuit, a widely cited free education project in LearningSEO.io that predates the current AI wave, and a named consultancy. Critically for a review site, she has no paid course to sell here and explicitly refuses ads and paid inclusions, which means her curation carries no commercial conflict.
