I had the privilege of talking with RatePoint Channel Marketing Manager Bryan Caplan, who gave me an extensive tour of the various facets of RatePoint.
Wiideman Leaves Local Search Agency to Teach Search Engine Optimization to Business Owners
Fountain Valley, Calif. – May 21th, 2010 – Search Engine Guru Steve Wiideman has spent over 5 years working with friend and colleague David Rodecker of Relevant Ads (aka: “Local Splash”) and as of May 20th, 2010 has left the company he helped pioneer to teach his craft to others.
Wiideman’s Comment:
“There’s a lot of talent at Relevant Ads between David Rodecker who played a major role developing the first version of Local.com and now Steve Yeich, former General Manager of Yahoo! Local. I learned a lot while working in the local space, but it’s time to get back to what I enjoy: teaching. I’m sure they’ll do great things in the future.”
Wiideman says his focus with the transition will be shifting toward educational events and workshops, micro-websites for small businesses, and additional information products, such as his recent SEO in a Day free digital download.
Business Speaker Bodine Balasco’s Comment:
“Steve is the most incredible guy – a real genius at this SEO stuff. He has a real talent for teaching and is just an all around genuine person. This transition will be good for him and people like me who really believe in what he can achieve for himself and others.”
The SEO Expert has already corralled a number of new and previous consulting clients and has reportedly launched a business selling WordPress powered websites based on his digital work “SEO in a Day” and an SEO membership website where he’s reportedly sharing his knowledge of Search Engine Optimization.
Steve Wiideman holds a Bachelor’s Degree in E-Business Management and earned Congressional Recognition for his contribution to peers and small businesses, in addition to the CCA G.R.E.A.T. Award for his post-graduate achievements. Wiideman has been featured in several major publications discussing Internet Marketing and SEO, including Entrepreneur Magazine, CNN Money, Response Magazine, Visibility Magazine, National Journal and others. He is most recognized for his website Top10SEOTips.com and his background working with companies as large as Disney, Expedia, IBM, and Ticketmaster.

Information products have been an important part of our legacy (thus the “Infopreneur” bit), as has Organic Search Engine Optimization. I’ve spent the last year toggling between both local SEO and organic SEO, but not being completely focused on one or the other. So for the next few months I’m going absolutely Gung Ho on my newest information product: SEO in a Day.
