Google Business Profile & Local SEO · Greater Montreal

I Get You Found with
Google Business Profile & AI Chats

Local SEO, done for you. I set up and maintain your Google Business Profile: reviews, photos, and listings synced across directories, so when a neighbor searches Google or asks ChatGPT, you come up and they call.

Top 3

Google shows three businesses first in local results. That’s the spot I work to put you in.

Leads

I track calls and booked jobs, not visitor counts.

Reviews

I handle review requests and replies so your profile keeps growing.

100%

Montreal-based support. You work with me, not a ticket queue.

More Visibility = More Calls.

People searching for a trade nearby aren't browsing. They have a problem and they're hiring someone today. If you're not in the top results, that phone rings for the shop next door.

Also Show Up When People Ask AI.

More customers ask ChatGPT or Google AI things like"who's a good plumber near me?" Those answers come from the same place: your Google listing, reviews, and consistent business info. Keep that strong and AI is more likely to name you.

Are You Paying for Facebook Ads?

Facebook ads are great for quick clients and a short burst of visibility. But what happens when you stop the ads? What if they're shown to the wrong audience? What if someone clicks through and lands on a site that looks outdated?

Your money gets wasted and you're still not building the structure your business needs long term. When your Google Business Profile and website are maintained properly, you're investing in an audience that keeps finding you after the spend stops. I report the calls and booked jobs that visibility brings in, so you know what you're paying for.


You Run the Business. I Run the Listing.

Getting found with Google Business Profile isn't a one-time setup. It's ongoing profile work, reviews coming in, photos staying fresh, and your citations (name, address, phone) matching everywhere. I take that off your plate so more of the right calls come in.

Your Google Business Profile, Fully Set Up

Categories, services, hours, service areas, Q&A. I fill out your Google Business Profile properly so Google knows what you do and where you work. Most listings I see are half-done. Yours won't be.

Reviews — Requests & Replies

I help you get a steady stream of new Google reviews and reply to them for you. Reviews that mention the job (drain cleaning, panel upgrade, furnace repair) help Google and customers see what you're known for.

Listing Kept Current with Photos

Stale listings fall behind. I keep your Google profile active: fresh photos of real jobs, updates when hours or services change, and regular posts so Google sees you're open for business.

Local Citations — Kept in Sync

Your name, address, and phone need to match on Google, directories, and other sites (that's what local citations are). When they don't, Google gets confused and you lose ranking. I clean that up once, then keep everything synced so you don't have to chase listings yourself.

What Happens After You Hire Me

No SEO lecture, just the steps from audit to more calls, and what you see along the way.

01. Audit & Fix

Get the Listing Right

I audit your Google Business Profile, then clean it up: categories, name/address/phone, directory listings, services, photos, and review requests. One heavy lift so Google knows who you are and where you work.

02. Stay Active

Keep You Visible

Fresh photos, posts, review replies, and listing updates, ongoing. Stale listings fall behind.

03. Check In

See What's Working

Every two weeks I walk you through views, calls, and reviews in plain English, then adjust based on what's bringing in jobs.

Built for Trades That Need More Map Calls

I build local SEO for plumbers, HVAC, and electricians, plus other contractors who win jobs from Google Business Profile. If customers search nearby and pick from the top of the map, this is for you.

More Calls Only Help If You Answer Them

Ranking higher means more people calling you, but only if someone picks up. If you're on a job and the phone goes to voicemail, that customer calls the next name on the list.

That's why Google Business Profile pairs with a website people trust, a 24/7 AI receptionist. Get found, get every call answered, book more jobs.

Ranking Up → Calls Up

Climb the map and more people call. Without a way to answer them all, you lose the leads you just paid to attract.

Reviews Feed the Ranking

More booked jobs mean more chances to ask for Google reviews, and fresh reviews help you climb the map again.

Straight Answers

What is Google Business Profile optimization?

Google Business Profile optimization is setting up and maintaining your Google Business Profile listing so customers find you and call: the right categories and services, fresh photos, accurate hours, review requests and replies, and matching name, address, and phone across directories. For local trades, that's what pushes you toward the top 3 on the map.

What do you actually do for my Google Business Profile?

I set up and manage your Google Business Profile so customers find you and call. That means getting more reviews (and helping customers mention the work you did), posting fresh photos, keeping your hours and services current, and making sure your name, address, and phone number match everywhere online. You focus on the jobs. I handle the listing.

How long does local SEO take to get more calls?

I won't promise you clients in 30 or 90 days — anyone who does is guessing.What I will do is concrete: optimize your local citations, build out service-area neighborhood pages, track raw phone conversions, and give you transparent monthly data so you see exactly what's working.

Do Google reviews help you rank with Google Business Profile?

Yes. Fresh reviews help you rank higher in local search, and they're what people read before they dial. Reviews that mention the job you did, like panel upgrade, drain cleaning, or furnace repair, also help Google understand what you're known for. I handle the review requests and replies so you don't have to chase them yourself.

Why Google Business Profile instead of just a website?

Someone who needs a plumber or electrician today searches Google and picks from the local results. Google liststhree businesses first there, and that's where trades get hired. A website helps once they click, but if you're not in those results, they never see you.

What if I get more calls but miss them on the job?

That's common. Ranking higher means more people calling, and if you're on a job, those calls go to the next name on the list. Pair Google Business Profile with a 24/7 AI receptionist so every call gets answered and booked, not missed.

Do you offer local West Island SEO and work with trades across Greater Montreal?

Yes. That's who I focus on. I provide local West Island SEO (Pointe-Claire, Kirkland, Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Beaconsfield, Pierrefonds) as well as coverage across Montreal, Laval, Brossard, and Longueuil. I work specifically with trade businesses — plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, roofers, and contractors — to make sure your Google Business Profile ranks in the top 3 on Google Maps when local homeowners search.

Why am I not showing up with Google Business Profile?

Usually one of three things: an incomplete Google listing, your business info doesn't match across directories, or you have fewer reviews than competitors nearby. I audit that, fix it, and keep it maintained — local citations, service-area neighborhood pages, raw phone-conversion tracking, and transparent monthly data.

How much does local SEO cost for a plumbing business?

Google Business Profile + Website is $897 CAD/month. The full system with a 24/7 AI receptionist is $1,497 CAD/month, $197 less than buying the two packages separately. Month-to-month, no long lock-in — and no made-up timelines. What you get is local citations, neighborhood pages, phone-conversion tracking, and transparent monthly data.All prices →

Will ChatGPT or Google AI recommend my plumbing business?

Often yes, if your Google Business Profile, reviews, and business info are complete and consistent. When someone asks ChatGPT or Google AI for a plumber or electrician near them, it pulls from the same kind of local data I clean up for Google Business Profile. Keep that strong, and you're more likely to get named.

How do I hire a local SEO expert for Google Business Profile?

You look for someone who talks about calls and customers, not just rankings. A lot of "SEO experts" will hand you a report full of technical terms and a promise about where you'll rank in six months, and then the results don't show up. You want someone who can explain, in plain language, what they're doing and why, and who measures it the way you do: is the phone ringing more?

What does local SEO for trades actually include?

For a trade business, it comes down to three things: a strong Google Business Profile that shows up first when someone nearby searches, your website backs that up when they click through, and your reviews and business info match everywhere. No filler, no jargon-heavy monthly reports. Only the work that moves you from page 2 to the map pack where people can find you and call.

What SEO solutions do you offer for trades businesses?

What I sell is simple: local SEO, a website built to convert visits into calls, and an AI receptionist that picks up when you can't, so leads don't go to the next business on the list because nobody answered. All three work together: getting found, giving people a reason to call, and making sure that call doesn't go to voicemail.

Do you build backlinks or get my business listed on other sites?

Not the kind you're picturing. A lot of SEO pitches lead with backlinks like they're the whole game. For a trade business getting found with Google Business Profile, they're not. What moves the needle is your Google Business Profile, your reviews, and your name, address, and phone number matching everywhere they show up (that's the "listed on other sites" part worth doing). I keep that clean and consistent. Chasing links from random blogs to hit a number is busywork that looks good in a report and does nothing for your phone.

Is my website actually fast, mobile-friendly, and secure?

Yes, and it shouldn't be an upsell. Most people searching for a plumber or electrician are standing in someone's driveway on their phone, not at a desktop. If your site is slow or looks broken on mobile, they back out and call the next name on the map before it loads. Every site I build is secure (HTTPS), fast, and built mobile-first from day one. That's part of the website, not a separate line item.

What about all the "technical SEO" stuff other agencies talk about: schema markup, sitemaps, crawl budget?

That's the kind of report that tells you nothing about whether the phone is ringing. The pieces that matter for a trades business (structured data that tells Google what you do and where you work, a clean sitemap so your pages get found, no broken pages or dead ends) are things I set up and maintain as part of the work, not a separate technical audit you get billed for and have to interpret yourself. You shouldn't need to know what any of those terms mean.
