- Steve Wiideman, Award-Winning SEO Specialist, Talks Tactics and Humility...
Ep #102 - Steve Wiideman, an award-winning SEO specialist and the founder of the Wiideman Consulting Group, sits down with the Marketing Geeks this week to reveal the truth about SEO. Steve has consulted for various enterprises and well-known brands for over 10 years, while playing key roles within multiple agencies and solution providers in the inbound marketing industry. Specializing in SEO Strategy, Steve likes to organize search into specific disciplines broken down by business model.
I, Justin Womack, had actually met Steve a few years back at an SEO workshop he was running and remember his claim to fame being that if you Google the term "SEO Expert," Steve Wiideman's name would pop up as the #1 result. Sure enough, the claim was 100% accurate and I was quite impressed. Others in the SEO community did not share the sentiment. Come to find out, Steve received a fair amount of backlash for this claim and it even drove a wedge between him and some of the industry's top professionals. In today's interview, we dive into what happened, how Steve has become more humble as a result and how he's pivoted his business for the next chapter. Plus, Steve will reveal a few SEO tactics and best practices that anyone can implement inside of their businesses right away. Don't miss this fantastic interview with Steve Wiideman.
