The presence of SMEs and SMIs on the Internet is now essential in Quebec as elsewhere… But what presence without referencing?
In 2023, the importance of SEO and SEO training for entrepreneurs and SMEs, or business leaders in Montreal, is surely one of the most useful skills!
The SEO that allows a site to reach the first page on Google’s SERP today is through the triple combination of quality coding free of blocking factors, quality content marketing oriented content and a network / profile of quality inbound links that is constantly evolving. While the code part can be quickly corrected, writing your pages, articles and product sheets involves a production effort whose technical side may seem restrictive. The network of inbound links (link pointing to your site) that will make your reputation on the web is, on the other hand, an in-depth work accessible to all but terribly time-consuming!

Why is your website not well referenced?
Creating and putting your website online was a kind of adventure. You put all your heart into it, your photos and your texts. A talented graphic designer has made you a perfect mockup. How much is that now? one, two, three years? That you are looking for yourself on a query like “Monmetier-Maville” and that you click to the 5th page to find yourself.
You like to take care of your site, you have read about SEO, but you lack time, lack information on the evolution of the criteria supported by search engines. With more than 200 criteria in the Google algorithm and 350 admitting changes per year, it’s not easy to position yourself, it’s a bit of a jungle.
Start by participating in the SEO café (it’s free) or give a call, your interlocutor will take the time to explain the basics.
We often call the SEO consultant as we call a firefighter, he notes many blocking factors, sometimes even advises you to change platforms – the graphic designer has worked with frames, everywhere and your texts are images*, your site is in flash, or, more fashionably, in ajax or paralax.
These choices are indeed “fun” but involve a superior SEO job that most developers and graphic designers don’t know about.
This change of platform is often less expensive than an improbable or lost optimization.
