SEO agency in Canada, from an office in LaSalle, Ontario

Plate Lunch Collective works with businesses across Canada. Canada is a full-service market, same tier as the United States. The founder spent seven years working in Canada on a work visa before founding the practice in Hawaii.

A business in Quebec needs its details complete in French and in English. Directories, review sites and Google Business Profile each handle two languages differently, and a listing that's full in English and thin in French shows up for one language and goes missing in the other. We build and check both versions everywhere they count, so you're in the running whichever language someone searches in.

Yes. A restaurant group in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver gets a listing and a page for each city, and in Montreal that means French first. Directories and review sites can also differ from one province to the next, so we check which ones count in each place instead of copying one city's setup onto the others.

Ski season in Whistler, summer on Prince Edward Island, festival season in Montreal. Each one brings its own rush of searches. We get your pages and listings ready before that crowd starts planning, for the Google searches and ChatGPT questions that begin weeks or months before the trip.

The market knowledge predates the company. Its founder spent years optimizing for clients in provinces from British Columbia to Quebec, working onsite in cities across the country rather than running everything from a single desk. What that teaches you is that near me is elastic: it means one thing in a transit-dense city and something very different where the nearest option is a long drive, and the same query carries a different journey from province to province. Bilingual search, regional identity, and the distance between a major metro and a mid-size market are things you calibrate by having been there. That's what goes into the work Plate Lunch Collective does for a Canadian business.

Every cycle runs 90 days and opens with the jobs that will count most for your business in its province, carried out in English, in French or in both. The work is mostly SEO in each language your market uses, listings that match in both, and outreach to the trade papers and regional guides your buyers read. Your leads, calls and sales are the test, and each quarterly report sets them against the count we made before any work started. Ongoing work starts at $1,500 USD a month.

Identity first. One name, one address, one phone number, one set of hours, matching on the site, the Google Business Profile and the directories that count in that market, in both languages where the market runs in both. Many local sites we open have two or three versions, and we fix that first. Then pages for the places the business really serves, each with something true and specific on it; a Kitchener page that is a Woodstock page with the city swapped gets filtered. Reviews get a process. We run all of it as one project, because the work that puts a business in Google's map results is the same work that gets an AI assistant to name it when someone in that metro asks.

You can start small with the AI Search Game Plan, from $1,500 USD, one report on how your business comes up for buyers in your province. Ongoing work starts at $1,500 USD a month, and the honest comparison is what one new client, patient or order from your province is worth to you. We're measured by the leads your province sends, compared with when we started.

We do, and in Canada that often means two languages. A trade association newsletter in Ontario, a French-language business paper in Quebec, a supplier's partner page or a regional guide your province's buyers read can each link to you when there's a story behind it. So we start from your story, a project, a local first or a busy season, and take it to the editors and partners who'd care. Every link is earned.
