SEO Services in Montreal
SEO is built into every website we ship. Ongoing management is $300/month for our web clients — no $1,500 retainer required. Edmonton-headquartered, working with Montreal clients across Greater Montreal, fully remote.
Most Montreal SEO agencies pitch a $1,500–$3,000 monthly retainer. We take a different angle. Every website we build already includes the SEO foundations that matter — schema markup, semantic HTML, fast load times, mobile optimization, internal linking, llms.txt, and AI-bot allows. You don't pay extra for them. After launch, ongoing SEO management is a flat $300/month for clients on sites we built — because we know exactly what's under the hood.
What Montreal SEO actually requires
SEO has three layers: technical (does Google understand your site?), on-page (does each page target the right keywords?), and off-page (do other credible sites link to you?). The first two are foundational — they should be set up correctly when the site is built, not bolted on as an upsell. The third is ongoing — backlinks build over time as you publish, partner, and get noticed.
Local SEO adds a fourth layer: Montreal-specific signals. That's an optimized Google Business Profile, citation consistency across local directories, neighbourhood-specific content if you serve specific areas (the Plateau, Mile End, Griffintown, Old Montreal, Verdun, and NDG), Schema.org LocalBusiness markup with proper geo coordinates, and local backlinks from Montreal publications and partners. All four layers matter, and we handle all four for restaurants and cafés, creative and design studios, professional services, and retail and other Montreal businesses.
How OnePoint SEO pricing works
Foundations — included in every build
From $499. Every website we ship has on-page SEO setup: title tags, meta descriptions, semantic HTML, mobile optimization, fast load times, structured data, llms.txt, internal linking. AEO is included by default too. See Montreal web design.
Ongoing Management — $300/month
For sites we built. Monthly on-page optimization, keyword tracking, technical monitoring, content recommendations, local SEO upkeep, and a plain-language monthly report. About one-tenth of the typical Montreal SEO retainer. See ongoing SEO details.
AEO Audit — $499 one-time
Have an existing site nobody finds — and ChatGPT can't cite? We score your current site against 25 AEO criteria and give you a prioritized fix list. No rebuild required. See AEO methodology.
Working with us from Montreal
We're headquartered in Edmonton and work with Montreal clients exactly the same way local agencies do — minus the office overhead built into their retainer. Entirely remote. Language note: our builds are in English; we structure them so a bilingual version is straightforward to add later. Discovery is a video call, design reviews are async docs, approvals happen by email, and monthly reports are plain-language summaries you actually read.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does SEO cost in Montreal?
Most Montreal SEO agencies charge $1,500–$3,000/month on a long retainer. OnePoint Solutions takes a different approach: SEO and AEO are built into every website we deliver, and ongoing SEO management is a flat $300/month for our web clients. Sites we build from $499 already include on-page SEO foundations, schema markup, llms.txt, fast load times, and mobile optimization.
Do I need a Montreal-based SEO agency?
No. SEO is a digital service — proximity doesn't change rankings. What matters is whether they understand local search signals and execute consistently. Entirely remote. Language note: our builds are in English; we structure them so a bilingual version is straightforward to add later.
What does Montreal local SEO actually involve?
An optimized Google Business Profile, citation consistency across local directories, neighbourhood-specific content if you serve specific areas (the Plateau, Mile End, Griffintown, Old Montreal, Verdun, and NDG), Schema.org LocalBusiness markup with proper geo coordinates, and local backlinks from Montreal publications and partners. We handle all of these.
How long does Montreal SEO take to show results?
Most clients see measurable improvement within 3–6 months. Montreal is competitive, but service-specific niches and neighbourhood searches are very winnable for well-built sites. Local long-tail opportunities are wide open.
Is AEO part of Montreal SEO?
Yes. Getting cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews is built into every site we ship, plus a $499 standalone audit for existing sites. As more Montreal searches move to AI assistants, AEO is becoming as important as traditional local SEO.
