AI SEO: Rank Expand Academy

Verdict

By Editorial team. Opinion within the published method; every figure is from the record below.

AI SEO: Rank Expand Academy ranks 4 of 45 with a composite of 86.3, on evidence tier A: 31 Skool reviews averaging 5 of 5, and 693 members, checked 18 September 2026. Confidence is medium because the Academy page publishes price, refund terms and a lesson count but no module-by-module curriculum, so most teaching claims stay unconfirmed. Jesse Cunningham is named as instructor, runs weekly calls and replies in the feed. It fits beginners and small agency operators who learn by building alongside other members at $99 a month. Skip it if you want a published syllabus, a certificate or a one-off purchase.

Score breakdown
