Local SEO Agency

GrowthEngine Media is a Toronto-based digital marketing agency providing local SEO services, including website and Google My Business (GMB) optimization, to businesses of all sizes.

Local Search Optimization

Successful local search optimization involves more than appearing in the top three or top ten results for relevant, geography-specific queries. Google’s search engine results pages (SERPs) are particularly dynamic for geo-specific searches. Traditional results factor in, but they share space with Google My Business listings, Google Maps listings, and more. With the help of our experienced local SEO agency, your business can appear in multiple locations on the results page for relevant searches.

On-Site Optimization

Our on-site local SEO process follows roughly the same formula as our process for traditional SEO. We audit our clients’ websites, perform audience and keyword research, and provide content and website development recommendations. Once we receive client approval, we provide a timeline and get to work. Upon completion of the initial project, we provide ongoing recommendations and reporting options.

Google My Business

While on-site optimization is vital for local SEO, the bulk of the work happens off-site, and in particular on Google My Business. It’s hard to overstate the importance of GMB listings to local search success. Not only do they occupy space on local SERPs, but they also provide valuable information to potential customers looking for quick answers to their questions.

Citation Building

Citation building is the practice of providing accurate and consistent information (address, contact info, hours of operation, etc.) to business directories like Yellow Pages and Yelp. This signals to Google and other search engines that your business is active and committed to delivering a positive experience to online customers.

Reviews and Ratings

Internet users are obsessed with Google ratings and reviews. Studies suggest that customers consistently seek out businesses with five- or near-five-star ratings. When two businesses have a similar quality and quantity of ratings, customers use reviews to make their decision. Our team can help your business generate more reviews and ratings, and manage the fallout from any negative reviews you may attract.
