Local SEO questions

What Montreal SMEs often ask.

How long to hit page 1?

Low competition (local niche): 4–6 weeks. Medium competition: 2–3 months. Strong competition (plumber Montreal): 4–6 months. Patience wins. Anyone promising page 1 in a week is bluffing.

Does Google My Business really help?

Very much so. Above all, complete it well: photos, hours, description, categories. It's free and the #1 entry point for local searches. NEXUS AGENCE ensures yours is perfect.

Do we need to write a lot?

No. 4 high-quality articles a month are better than 12 poor ones. We write useful content: advice, client Q&A, local news.

Are Google reviews important?

Yes. Reviews help ranking and convince customers. A business with 20 reviews at 4.5 ⭐ ranks better than one with nothing. NEXUS AGENCE helps you ask for reviews without being pushy.

What's the secret to SEO for Montreal?

No secrets. It comes down to: useful local content + complete Google My Business + honest reviews + speed + mobile. No tricks, no bad links. Just regular, honest work.

Can we do SEO ourselves?

Sure, if you have 2–3 hours per week, we can train you. Otherwise, NEXUS AGENCE does it. It's more effective when delegated.
