## **📋 What Is the Top of Google Challenge?**

The **Top of Google Challenge** is a paid live training event hosted by Search Atlas. Participants receive hands-on guidance on ranking strategies, tool walkthroughs, and actionable SEO techniques delivered in real time via Zoom.

Access to the live sessions — including the current and all upcoming challenges — is included with your **$27 Top of Google Challenge purchase**.

## **🕐 Event Schedule and Time**

The Top of Google Challenge runs as a **live session series**. Each session is held on a scheduled date and time that is communicated to registered participants. Because session dates and times are updated each challenge cycle, the most accurate and up-to-date schedule is always available in two places:

- Your **registration confirmation email** sent at the time of purchase
- The **official challenge event page** linked in that email

If you did not receive a confirmation email, check your spam or promotions folder. If you still cannot locate it, use the chat widget described at the bottom of this article to request the current session date, time, and timezone from our team.

**Timezone note:** All session times are listed in **Eastern Time (ET)** unless otherwise stated in your confirmation email. Use a timezone converter such as *worldtimebuddy.com* to find your local equivalent.

## **🔗 How to Join the Live Session**

All live sessions are hosted on **Zoom**. To join:

1. Locate your **registration confirmation email** — it contains your unique Zoom link for the challenge.
2. Click the Zoom link **at least five minutes before** the session start time to ensure you are admitted promptly when the host opens the room.
3. If prompted, enter the **meeting passcode** provided in the same email.

If you have lost your Zoom link, contact support via the chat widget and a teammate will resend your access details.

## **✅ What Your $27 Purchase Includes**

Your one-time $27 payment grants you the following:

- Access to the **current live challenge** sessions
- Access to **all future live sessions** within the same challenge cycle
- Any **replay recordings** made available after each session, where applicable

**Please note:** The $27 challenge is a separate purchase from a Search Atlas platform subscription. If you purchased the challenge, you do not need an active platform subscription to attend the live sessions. However, to follow along with in-platform exercises during the challenge, a Search Atlas account is recommended.

## **⚠️ I Missed the Previous Challenge — Can I Watch It?**

Replay availability depends on whether recordings were released for that specific challenge cycle. Not all previous challenge sessions are guaranteed to have publicly available replays. If you purchased the $27 challenge and expected replay access:

- Check your **confirmation or follow-up emails** for replay links sent after each session.
- If no replay link was provided and you believe one should have been, reach out via the chat widget so our team can investigate your specific purchase and replay entitlement.

## **🔑 Troubleshooting Access Issues**

If you are unable to join or locate your challenge materials, try the following steps:

1. Search your inbox (including spam) for emails from **Search Atlas** or **searchatlas.com** containing the words "challenge" or "Zoom."
2. Confirm that you are using the **same email address** used during purchase.
3. Ensure your Zoom application is **up to date** — outdated versions can prevent room entry.
4. Try joining via the **Zoom web browser client** if the desktop app is not working.

If none of the above steps resolve the issue, contact our support team directly for immediate assistance.
