Hawk Academy is a free SEO academy built by StudioHawk, Australia's largest dedicated SEO agency. Every resource on this page (the skills, tools, guides, prompts, templates and data sheets) comes from the same framework the agency runs across 500+ client campaigns, published free.
Yes. Every resource is free with no email wall: tools run in your browser, skills and templates download directly, and the data sheets are make-a-copy Google Sheets. The academy is how StudioHawk shares what it knows; some readers later become course students or clients, and that is the whole model.
Start with the SEO Roadmap at the top of this page. It maps the 10 steps StudioHawk uses to train its own SEOs, and links the right guide, skill, and tool for each step, so you work through the library in order instead of guessing.
