The SMX Master Classes are a series of online workshops taught by experts in the search marketing industry. They are all intended for marketers with at least some degree (1-2 years) of professional experience. Advanced classes may be better suited to marketers with more robust experience. All Master Classes air live and feature ample Q&A with your expert instructor.

The following Master Classes are now available for on-demand purchase:

The October 2026 Master Classes are available on-demand until October 13, 2027.

All Master Classes cost $299 each, but depending on when you register, you may be able to snag an Early Bird discount! Check out each class landing page above for more details.

Q&A is only available during the live broadcast of the SMX Master Class.

In most cases, yes! Be sure to check out the Dig Deeper tab to the right of the video window to download a PDF version of the presentation (if available) and any other valuable training resources your instructor may offer.

In the unlikely event that the video isn’t working, try these handy troubleshooting tips:

  • Refresh your page; this is often the simplest solution to jumpstarting a video that’s successfully working for everyone else.
  • Ensure that any popup blockers or privacy settings that could prevent a video from playing are disabled.
  • Ensure your browser of choice is up-to-date. If it’s not, install the necessary updates and refresh your page.
  • Ensure that the computer you’re on isn’t behind a company firewall or other technical obstacle that would prevent a video from playing.
  • Sessions will stream in all major browsers, but we tend to find that Chrome users have optimal experiences.
  • If none of this is working, try accessing the event from your mobile device. If you can see the video on your mobile device, there is an outstanding issue with your desktop. Repeat the steps above.

If you find a slide hard to read, we recommend you increase the screen size. To do this, you can either click the Full-Screen button on the video player or try modifying your screen zoom by clicking COMMAND and the (-) key on Mac or CTRL and the (–) key on Windows.

This may be be due to your browser’s settings (many now have features that prevent audio from auto-playing). Hover over the video window to access and adjust the volume controls. If this does not work, please check the sound preferences on your computer, including the sound output settings.

You likely have two instances of the Master Class open in your browser. Close one to eliminate the echo.

We don’t offer transcripts natively, but to help you get the most from your Master Class, we strongly recommend viewing it in Google Chrome and enabling Live Captions, which can make it easier to follow along with the discussion and capture every detail. Learn how to set up Live Captions here. (It’s SUPER easy!)

Yes! Attending your Master Class unlocks a personalized certificate of completion and a nifty digital badge — perfect for sharing on social after the event.
