Joshua is the founder of the Award Winning SEO Agency in the UK called ClickSlice. Joshua originally got involved with SEO as an end result of selling on eBay. He loved selling on eBay but hated paying the eBay commission fees. Instead of paying eBay every time he sold an item he decided to make his own website where he could sell as many items as he wanted without paying any fees.
After building the website he noticed his site was nowhere to be found in Google and no one was buying his products.
As you do, he started to Google things like “how to get my website higher in Google” and stumbled across SEO in 2016.
Joshua remembers this day like it was yesterday and says whilst smiling “Sept 13th 2013, the day I stumbled across SEO. I knew from this point on my future would take a different direction”.
This was the date Joshua started learning exactly how SEO works. He mastered the skill within 3 years and now regularly helps business owners in the UK rank higher in Google and generate more revenue.
SEO is forever changing, to stay on top of your game you have to constantly be trying and testing new things. Joshua regularly attends SEO conferences across the world to ensure he’s always updated on the latest Google algorithm updates and trends. He spends most of his time as an SEO consultant For businesses in London.

Josh was a great teacher. He covered the basics really well and after finishing the course I felt prepared to start running my own meta ads. My one request that I think would have improved my experience would have been updating the course to match the current language and layout of Facebook. I completed this course in 2026 and had to do some digging through google and AI search engines to figure out how to follow some of the steps outlined in the course. Other than that, it was fantastic!
By Sahar Avrahami on 7/8/2026
I am very disappointed I did the whole course, and started working on my ads I discovered that it is not at all like reality! The course is not updated (July 2026), there are a lot of extras that are not in the course, especially the whole advantage+ part Unfortunately I do not recommend it, until it is updated - it is irrelevant
By Banele Gloria on 3/5/2026
taking this course on my personal level is because i want to leaarn about facebook ads and facebook marketing. since it's my first time im happy to dive in to the lessons, and so far i know what to expect from this course, what faceboook ads and marketing is.
By Iv on 2/26/2026
Very informative course. I learned a lot and I feel more confident to start testing ads for my business. I like how themes are separated in individual videos so if I need to refresh my memory, I can easily find a video about a certain topic. Thank you for sharing all the knowledge.
By MC Bergeron on 2/20/2026
C'est excellent comme cours, mais comme cité dans plusieurs autres commentaires, une mise à jour des interfaces dans les vidéos serait appropriée puisque visiblement, plusieurs changements ont eu lieu du côté de FB depuis l'enregistrement du cours. Pour moi, qui ai déjà fait de la publicité FB par le passé, je finis toujours par me retrouver parmi les menus, mais ce n'est pas la même histoire pour tout le monde.
By David Marchand on 2/15/2026
Very detailed. Its long for sure, but that's only because it targets everything about facebook advertisement. If you're looking to get into advertisement and have no idea where to get started, this course is for you. Like it is said in the course, this course takes you from zero to hero!
By Elliott Maddox on 2/13/2026
Josh George narrates and demonstrates the processes clearly, while showcasing relevant examples. I opted to open my Meta/FB accounts so I could work through certain processes. I'm very confident now in providing Facebook marketing services to my clients. Thanks Josh!
By David Wall on 1/15/2026
I’d give Josh 4 stars if the content was up to date as he’s a pretty decent and likable teacher. However, most, if not all of the content is over 5 years old. Don’t be misled by the ‘last updated’ date stamp in the description - there’s no 2026 overhaul here! If Josh recently changed one word in a downloadable handout, he can legitimately claim the course was “updated”.
By Levin Jackson on 11/14/2025
Very clear explanation, each explanation doing step by step. this course is very suitable for a beginner. for make it perfect maybe can add some example how our ads show on other user device
By Oluwagbenga Ogundare (FreemanDigitalz) on 11/12/2025
Josh really makes me fall in love with this course from the beginning till the end. As a matter of fact, this is the first course I will be taking fully from start to finish. I highly recommend this course if you want to learn more on Facebook Ads and Marketing.
