GuidedHacking.com is amazing. The first time I encountering them was when I was attempting to understand various concepts of networking like packet sniffing and crafting, man in the middle attack and alike. I googled something and found an awesome article on GuidedHacking, it provided various insights on the topics and I decided to note the resource for later, since then I have been a member for about a year and am a living proof you can learn how to hack, do some low level programming, get decent with C++ and even begin reverse engineering which I never could understand before learning about it at GH. I have been studying on and off, but so far I was managed to learn basic C++, a little bit of the windows library related to reading and writing process memory, understand pointers enough to find them using cheat engine and then use them in my C++ code, since then I feel omnipotent sitting behind a keyboard, this is not a joke.

The lessons at GuidedHacking are straight forward and efficient, giving you a list of links and resources that you can read if you're missing something from the tutorial. There are so many guides and tutorials that it can be overwhelming, but they've done their best to keep it all organized. While the courses are done step by step, if you get lost there is always a few accompanying articles made by other content creators that can set you on the right path. So far, just as I was promised, if I had a question after reading a chapter, I either missed something, or it was answered in the next chapter.

GuidedHacking.com is not expensive, despite what people say. I think the problem is that it's mostly kids that are interested in this content, when GH is really catering towards a more mature audience. In this case we see a lot of kids expecting the content to be free, but if you compare GH against free resources, high quality educational content like this is hard to find. On the other hand, if you're searching for REAL education from professionals, then Guided Hacking is an absolute goldmine of knowledge for just 10$/month.

I guess I should throw a word about Rake, the owner of the forum has written hundreds if not thousands of tutorials and he has really worked hard to make it worth the money. You might have heard some negative things about him but these are all people who got banned for not paying for the resource or trying to hack the website, in reality he is just an owner and a hard working one who don't ban for no reason like many say, I felt it's important to mention that after reading the other reviews.

Another thing I should mention is the courses are intended for complete beginners but also teach very advanced stuff as you progress. At first it may seem really complicated but it gets easier if you stay motivated and work through the tutorials. Some people might think it's just beginner content, but they have added a lot of more advanced content over the years, if you checkout their kernel, anticheat & exploit development guides you will see what I'm talking about. All in all, GuidedHacking is great and if you want to learn, there is no better place.
