Small Business SEO · Canada

Get your small business found on Google.

You've got a great business — but if you're not on page one, customers can't find you. I help Canadian small businesses rank higher, show up in the local map pack, and turn searches into paying customers.

Most small business websites are invisible on Google. They look great, but they're buried on page five where nobody scrolls. The fix isn't luck or tricks — it's steady, honest search engine optimization: the right keywords, a strong Google Business Profile, helpful content, and the local signals that tell Google you're the real deal.

That's exactly what I do — small business SEO and local SEO for Canadian businesses, explained in plain English, with no jargon and no long-term lock-in. You'll always know what I'm working on and why it matters.

What's Included

Everything it takes to climb the rankings.

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

Get into Google's map pack for "near me" searches. I optimize and manage your Google Business Profile, build local citations, and target the searches your nearby customers actually use.

Keyword & Competitor Strategy

I find the exact terms your customers search — and where your competitors are beating you — then build a clear roadmap to outrank them for the keywords that bring in business.

On-Page Optimization

Titles, headings, content, and structure tuned for both Google and real readers — so each page clearly answers what people are searching for and earns a higher ranking.

Content & Blogging

Helpful articles that answer your customers' questions and bring in steady organic traffic — the kind of content that ranks for months and quietly builds your authority.

Technical SEO

Fast load times, mobile-friendly pages, clean site structure, schema markup, and a healthy sitemap — the behind-the-scenes basics that let Google crawl and trust your site.

Plain-English Reporting

Monthly updates on rankings, traffic, and what's next — written so you actually understand them. No vanity metrics, no jargon, just real progress you can see.

Common Questions

Small business SEO, answered honestly.

Why isn't my website showing up on Google?

Usually one of three reasons: your site isn't indexed yet, it has no SEO foundation (titles, content, local signals), or it lacks authority — backlinks and reviews — so it ranks too deep to be seen. Small business SEO fixes all three: getting you indexed, optimized, and steadily climbing toward page one. Read the full breakdown →

What is local SEO, and do I need it?

Local SEO helps you show up when nearby customers search for what you offer — in Google's map pack and local results. It covers your Google Business Profile, local citations, location keywords, and reviews. If you serve a specific city or region, it's the highest-ROI SEO you can do. See our local SEO guide →

How long does SEO take to work?

Most Canadian small businesses see meaningful movement in 3–6 months, with stronger results by 6–12 months. SEO compounds — the foundation and content work early pays off as Google builds trust in your site over time.

Is SEO worth it for a small business?

For most local and service businesses, it's the best long-term marketing investment there is. Unlike ads, organic rankings keep bringing in customers after the work is done. One page-one ranking for the right keyword can pay for itself many times over.

How much does small business SEO cost?

I keep it simple: a one-time SEO Foundation ($497), a one-time SEO Audit ($497), and an optional Content Plan ($497/month, cancel anytime). You pay for deliverables you can see — never a long retainer. See full pricing →
