Learn all you need to know about CSS selectors.
Element selection is something you’ll run into in many disciplines under the “technical marketing” umbrella. While very common in tagging and digital analytics, you’ll find CSS selectors immensely useful in CRO, SEO, and web design, too. Simmer’s Mastering CSS Selectors course is designed to help you become fluent in the language of CSS selectors.
While you might think the concept of “HTML element selection” to be extremely niche and probably not useful in your day-to-day work, it might surprise you just how often you’ll come across a situation where you’ll need to both understand the HTML you are working with and select some element or elements in the markup for “scraping” the contents.
In fact, much of tag management today relies on the ability to interact with the web page using CSS selectors for targeting rules. Similarly, web design is all about writing efficient HTML structures not just for web browsers but also for digital marketers. You’ll run into CSS selectors elsewhere, too, for example when configuring an A/B test variation or when fine-tuning your technical SEO crawlers.
We designed this course to cater to a number of different student profiles. The course has a linear ramp-up progression, beginning with very straightforward introductory lessons, before diving into the nuts and bolts of element selection with CSS.
This course will get you up-to-speed with CSS selectors. It’s a short, task-based, self-paced curriculum designed to tackle the use cases clearly and to provide you with all the necessary information you need to work with CSS selectors.
This course has been designed particularly as a companion to Simmer’s JavaScript For Digital Marketers course. Take a look at our bundle options to buy this course together with our other courses.
As with all Simmer courses, your enrollment in Mastering CSS Selectors comes with lifetime access to the material, which we will make sure stays always updated and relevant.
The course is self-paced, and you can take it at your own leisure. The individual topics always contain text content to help flesh out the concepts. There are illustrations, links, and tips to help you understand more about the topic.
The text content frequently contains tooltips that point to entries in a glossary. There’s a lot of domain terminology introduced in this course, so the tooltips are almost essential.
At the end of each section there will be a quiz to test your progress. After the last section, the quiz is the final quiz, which tests you on everything learned during the course.
Once you complete all course content, you will receive a certificate, which you can proudly share on social media and in your professional profiles.
As with all Simmer courses, upon enrollment you’ll receive lifetime access to the content and the Simmer Community.

I love working with the web. But the web is often a mess. I’ve spent a disproportionate amount of my professional life trying to make sense of web documents, and in courses like this one I’m happy to share everything I know about web development with you.
CSS selectors are one of the key tools you just need to know about in order to be more efficient as a technical marketing professional. I can’t wait to show you what they’re all about!

Nothing, really. We’ll show you how to run the JavaScript included in the course, and we’ll walk you through the necessary methods.Â
JavaScript is just an interface for using CSS selectors – you absolutely don’t need to understand JS to understand CSS selectors. In fact, in many of the scenarios where you’ll need to utilize CSS selectors, such as in tag management systems, you won’t need to write any JavaScript at all.
