See what our clients have to say about our SEO services.
Toronto Canada is one of the most exciting places in the world to do business. The market is incredibly vibrant, and welcomes plenty of newcomers every single day. The city is Canada’s most important economic engine, and there are millions of potential customers at your fingertips.
That is, if you can find them.
Here at First Rank, we’ll do more than just help you find new clients. We’ll help clients who are actively looking for your services find you. That’s the power of SEO (Search Engine Optimization).
What is Toronto SEO?
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the science (and art) of getting you to the top of search engine results pages. Think about how often you Google a term, only to go to the second or third page of results.
It almost never happens, right?
When you have to go through pages of search results, you assume you searched for the wrong terms, and you try again. It’s not just you; over 90% of searches never go past the first page. In other words, if you’re not on the first page, you’re missing out on over 90% of your potential clients.
We’ll get you on Google. Working together, we’ll even get you to the top of the first page for relevant keywords. The top position is known in the industry as the first rank – that’s where we get our name from.
Targeted Client Acquisition
Traditional advertising was a numbers game – you’d throw advertising out into the void and hope that someone listening needed your services. Toronto SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is quite a bit different – it’s best at finding clients who are actively looking for your services.
Think about it. When’s the last time you searched online for a product or service you didn’t need? When someone looks up “home cleaning services in Toronto”, they’re probably not casually perusing the names of different cleaning companies – they want someone to clean their house!
Toronto SEO (Search Engine Optimization) finds you potential clients who are already deep in the buying cycle – they know what they need and they’re looking for someone to provide it to them. When you’re the first result, the chances they’ll go to your website are extremely high.
We are Toronto SEO Nerds
There are a few methods. One is to recognize that people won’t necessarily just search for “Toronto plumber”. They might instead look for “kitchen sink repair in Toronto” or “plumber near Kensington Market”. Keyword research is an essential component of SEO campaigns – we know Toronto, so we know which keywords people are using. Coupled with our other digital marketing strategies, you’ll skyrocket to the front page.
For Canadians, By Canadians
SEO (search engine optimization) is all about high-quality content – when you’re writing interesting, shareable, informative posts, everyone notices. A lot of SEO companies employ content writers from all around the world – in their mind, “North American” content is United States content.
You’ll see blogs in Canada about what’s FDA approved, about CDC regulations, about the electrical code in California. Not with First Rank. Our SEO company and content writers are Canadian. We’ll honour our commitment to keeping content relevant to Canadians and Torontonians – notice that we spell honour with a “u”.
Toronto SEO
Every city has its own distinct market, so if you see a website talking big game about Toronto SEO without laying out a city-specific strategy, be cautious. Our SEO strategy is tailor-made to Toronto’s particular environment, targeting keywords that are location-specific as well as friendly to new immigrants. Our team of Canadian SEO experts have our fingers on the pulse of the city and the nation, so you’ll always get the most relevant content.
Localizing the GTA
Great SEO strategies prioritize specific locations. Think back to our “Toronto plumber” example. Targeting smaller areas is a more useful tactic.
This can mean targeting neighborhoods like The Beaches and Corso Italia. It can also mean targeting nearby cities in the GTA like Markham and Mississauga. The targeting strategy will depend heavily on the nature of your company; more localized targeting may work well if there’s a lot of competition, while broader targeting may be more helpful if you offer a unique service.
Local targeting is especially useful because people will look up terms like “pizzeria near me”. When you have region-specific keyword terms and content, you’ll be more likely to show up in that search. We’ll scope out your competition in the area and narrow or broaden the locations we target based on what will net you the most clients. In a major metropolis like Toronto, how one targets neighborhoods is one of the most essential elements of a cohesive SEO strategy.
Attracting Newcomers
Toronto’s population increases at an incredible rate – that’s mostly due to an influx of new immigrants every day. When you’re new to a city, you’re going to use a search engine a lot. You have to find out where everything is, who is trusted, and how to get the best service. Our keywords can help you target newcomers. Our content is written in plain English, so it’s easy to understand for people who might not have mastered the language yet.
The Key to the City
Attracting Torontonians to your website will take more than just the clever use of keywords – it’s going to take incredible content. You’ve probably heard the phrase “content is king”. Really, it should be “quality content is king”, because just churning out run-of-the-mill blogs will get you nowhere. Our content strategy is to create relevant, engaging posts, articles, and pages to get people on your site – and keep them there.
The Personal Touch
How do we create incredible content? It starts with the research we outlined above – finding what’s trending, predicting what will trend, and looking for news and stories relevant to your industry and the city. Then, we get to writing.
Our content creators focus on quality first. You won’t find any keyword padding or black hat SEO company strategies here – we know that as search engine algorithms change, they become better at detecting pages that are rehashing the same old story. You’ll end up with relevant keywords in everything we write for you. That’s not just because we do keyword research. It’s because we write unique articles, personalized for your brand. These articles will contain information you won’t find anywhere else on the web, and they’ll answer real questions your clients might have. Copy written by humans, for humans – unique and engaging. That is our white hat Toronto SEO service promise.
All Kinds of Content
There are a lot of different reasons why content is great for SEO Services. Let’s take a look at some of the kinds of content our local SEO company can create for you:
Blog content that answers client queries. Say someone is Googling “what’s the best way to clear snow”. That’s a question a newcomer to Canada might have (if they’ve never dealt with snow), and it’s relevant to a company that does snow clearing and other yard services. A blog giving tips and tricks accompanied with a call to action will incentivize that client to call. Localize the tips to Toronto, and you’ve got a winner.
Content pages that describe your company, your products, your services – whatever you offer! Our content pages are hyper-focused on SEO, so everything from your homepage to your about us page will help you rank.
Those are just a few brief examples of the many types of content we can create for you. Content does double-duty. It ranks highly for very specific queries and keywords, and it keeps people on your website. That boosts the ranking of your homepage as well. That means you’ll rank well for specific queries and for more general terms – all because of great content! Now that’s a digital marketing strategy.
Gaining Authority
You and I recognize great content when we read it. It informs us, it moves us, it changes our perspective. Search engines, on the other hand, don’t have the ability to understand what’s good and what’s bad. Instead, they rely on humans to tell them what’s good.
How?
They use a principle that Google pulled from academia. Academic papers that get cited a lot are generally high-quality – especially those cited by other prominent experts. In the world of search engines, links are citations, and high-ranking sites are authorities.
We’ll increase your authority by creating shareable content that other sites want to link to. We’ll then approach high-ranking sites in Toronto and in your industry and show them the content. Our content is good – really good – so they’ll be sure to link to it.
When enough people cite you, you’re an expert. When enough people link to you, you’ll become the authority.
Technical SEO
Search engines don’t go through websites the same way people do. They use bots, often called crawlers, to go around the internet and archive every page. These crawlers are very tempermental, and they get mad. Page loads too slowly? Angry crawlers. Too many redirects? Angry crawlers. Links leading to nowhere? Very angry crawlers.
You get the idea.
When crawlers get angry, you start to penalize you. That means your site will rank lower than it normally would; technical SEO is absolutely necessary if you want to make it to the first rank.
Our technical SEO will ensure that your site is coded to be crawler and human-friendly. No matter who is using your website, it will load quickly, and navigation will be simple.
