Steve is a big believer in a famous quote by Jim Rohn, the influential entrepreneur, motivational speaker and author of “Five Major Pieces to the Life Puzzle” by Jim Rohn: “You don’t have to do extraordinary things to get what you want, you only have to do ordinary things extraordinarily well.”

He embodied this credo long before he became renowned as “SEO Steve” for the extraordinary breakthroughs he helped achieve for Fortune 500 companies and local small startups alike. Over the past 15 years, he's created a powerful niche as a “scientist” and practitioner of local and e-commerce search engine optimization and paid search advertising.

While sharing his vast and always expanding expertise via the popular, invaluable eBooks, SEO Content Writing Guide, SEO in a Day, SEO Blog Optimization and Four Layers of the SEO Model, Wiideman’s innovations have played a key role in the inbound successes of a wide variety of national brands – including Disney Parks and Resorts (where he served as SEM Account Manager for Disneyland.com and AdventuresByDisney.com), Linksys, Public Storage, Meineke Car Care Centers and SKECHERS.

He currently consults with several Fortune 500 brands in retail, consumer electronics and multi-location services.

Danny is one of North America's top contracting thought-leaders, assisting hundreds of entrepreneurs every year to build kick-ass, profitable businesses.

In 2015 he co-founded Breakthrough Academy as a way to open horizons for other contracting entrepreneurs.

Danny's philosophy is to work hard, stay humble and push boundaries. That, and his no BS approach continues to drive him; he also loves the 'F' word: Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness, Financials, and in that order.

Breakthrough Academy now works with over 400 contractors across the continent, managing over $1 billion worth of revenue, and was rated Canada’s 106th fastest growing company by The Globe and Mail’s Report on Business in 2020; BTA’s third consecutive year on a national growth list.
