Montreal SEO
Montreal SEO services built for the bilingual, competitive Montreal market — local rankings, bilingual optimization, and industry-specific strategies.
The Challenge
SEO in Montreal is a different game than SEO anywhere else in Canada. You're competing in two languages simultaneously. The local pack is crowded with competitors in every neighbourhood from Griffintown to Laval. And generic SEO strategies designed for English-only markets miss half the opportunity in a city where 56% of searches happen in French. Most SEO agencies either ignore the French market entirely or treat it as an afterthought — a translation of English pages that never ranks because the keyword research wasn't done properly for Quebec French search terms. Meanwhile, Montreal-specific local SEO requires understanding the geography, the industries, and the search patterns unique to this city. DevBuddy has been doing SEO in Montreal for 14+ years. We've ranked businesses across construction, manufacturing, professional services, restaurants, technology, and e-commerce in both English and French. With 225+ projects and deep knowledge of Montreal's competitive search landscape, we deliver bilingual SEO strategies that capture the full market — not just the English half.
