SEO FAQs
Every SEO agency works a little differently. We keep things simple, honest, and upfront. Here are some common questions business owners ask before getting started.
How long does SEO take to work?
Most businesses start seeing early wins in 6–12 weeks, with stronger, more stable results landing around the 3–6 month mark.
SEO is a compounding system — the more we improve your site, your content, and your Google Business Profile, the faster you grow.
What makes your SEO different from other agencies?
We keep things simple:
- No long contracts
- No complicated reports
- No “SEO hacks”
Just clean technical work, strong content, better local signals, and fast turn-around on every update. You get honest communication, clear steps, and work that actually moves rankings.
Do you guarantee results?
No — and no real SEO company can.
What we do promise is steady monthly improvements, clear reporting, and a plan built around the keywords and service areas that matter most to your business.
How much does SEO cost?
Most businesses invest $1,000–$2,000/month, depending on size, competition, and how fast they want to grow.
Multi-location businesses or companies targeting several cities usually sit between $2,500–$3,500/month.
Do you work with businesses outside of Edmonton?
Yes. While we’re based in Edmonton, we work with service businesses across Canada and North America.
Your SEO is built around your city, your service area, and where you want to grow — not ours.
Will this help with AI search tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, or Perplexity?
Yes. We structure your content so AI models can actually read and use it. That means your business shows up in AI-generated answers — not just Google.
What do I need to get started?
Just a quick discovery call. We’ll review your site, your goals, and your service areas — then map out a plan built around real search data and what your competitors are doing.
What happens if I stop SEO?
You won’t “lose everything,” but rankings usually flatten or slide over time.
SEO is like going to the gym — momentum compounds. The longer you stay consistent, the stronger and more defensible your results become.
Do you handle Google Business Profile management?
Yes. We handle:
- Weekly posts
- Photo uploads
- Review responses
- Category tuning
- Local ranking improvements
This is included with your monthly SEO plan.
Does SEO help if I also run Google Ads?
Absolutely. SEO strengthens your site and improves your Quality Scores, which can make your ads cheaper and more effective. Both together create a steady pipeline of leads.
