Montréal SEO that is French first, not translated.

1. 01.

   Page-by-page audit.

   Every public page graded against what search engines actually read: the title, the heading, the depth of the copy, the internal links, the schema, and the page speed. The audit becomes the punch list, and you get it in writing before anyone talks about a fee.

2. 02.

   One keyword target per page.

   Stuffing five terms into one page weakens all five. Each page gets one honest target it can win, drawn from the language real customers use, which is rarely the language the industry uses about itself.

3. 03.

   Rewrite the page itself.

   Headings tightened, thin copy made substantial, internal links added between pages that belong next to each other. The page earns its ranking the legitimate way, by answering the question better than the pages above it.

4. 04.

   Technical pass.

   Title tags, meta descriptions, schema markup, image alt text, sitemap, robots.txt, and Core Web Vitals. The plumbing search engines need in order to understand the site, set up once and set up correctly.

5. 05.

   Measure and adjust.

   Search Console connected, a baseline taken, and a short written note each month for the first quarter on what is moving. Quiet check-ins, no dashboard theatre.

• We already have a translate button. Is that enough?

  No, and it is usually costing you the French rankings entirely. A translation widget renders in the browser, which means search engines index one page in one language and never see the rest. Real French pages at their own URLs with correct hreflang are what rank. The widget is convenience, not visibility.
• Should we do keyword research in French or translate the English list?

  In French, always. Translating an English keyword list gives you the French words for English concepts, and Québec customers frequently use different terms entirely. Research done natively finds the searches that exist here, which is often a completely different list from what an English-first process produces.
• What about backlinks?

  We don't do them. Link buying is a slow walk into a Google penalty, and the legitimate version, earning real links from real publications, is a public-relations job rather than a web-agency job. Everything we do lives on your site, which is the part you actually own.
• How long until I see results?

  Movement on long-tail queries within a few weeks. Movement on the terms you actually care about tends to land between two and four months. Anyone quoting a faster timeline on legitimate work is selling you something else.
• Do you guarantee a ranking?

  No. Anyone offering one is selling the wrong thing. We guarantee the work, not the outcome. What we will do is tell you honestly, before you spend anything, whether the term you want is winnable at your size.
