Victoria SEO Company
Banish Media provide Victoria SEO services and has over 6 years of experience, helping several Victoria-based businesses grow their organic web traffic. As a dedicated Local SEO Victoria company, we strive to understand the unique needs of every local business.
In Victoria, many companies are selling SEO services, but they often fail to analyze the needs of local businesses. That’s where Banish Media can shine! We make sure to understand the core problems & issues faced by the businesses before doing anything.
Our Victoria SEO Services
At Banish Media, we specialize in Search Engine Optimization (SEO) services tailored to meet the needs of Victoria businesses. Our offerings include:
- On-page SEO: Optimizing individual pages on your website for the local targeted keywords.
- Technical or Off-page SEO: Enhancing the technical aspects of your site, like robots.txt, improving its crawlability and indexation.
- Google My Business Optimization (Local SEO): Boosting your visibility in local searches.
- Backlink Building: Increasing your site’s authority with quality backlinks.
- Content Strategy: Crafting content that attracts and engages your audience.
On-Page Search Engine Optimization
Let’s dive into keyword and content strategy. If you’re not familiar, this involves identifying the search terms people use on Google and optimizing your site so your local Victoria business appears for those keywords. For example, if someone searches for “best plumbers in Victoria BC,” our goal is to target that keyword on your website so Google recognizes your site as relevant and shows it at the top of the search results. We start by focusing on low-hanging keywords—those that are easier to rank for and can quickly boost your traffic. From there, we continue implementing strategies that will help your business rank steadily and sustainably over time, ensuring a consistent flow of calls and business growth.
Local SEO Audit
We also offer local SEO audits tailored specifically for Victoria businesses. This means we evaluate the local aspects of your online presence, such as your Google My Business profile. We ensure it’s fully optimized by updating your title and description, adding images, and keeping your business hours current. Our audits also cover creating and managing citations, which are crucial for local SEO. We check whether you have existing citations, assess your NAP (Name, Address, Phone Number) consistency, and verify the installation of Google Analytics and Search Console. Additionally, we analyze your backlink profile, focusing on the quantity and quality of local backlinks. Our comprehensive local SEO audits are designed to give your business the edge it needs in the Victoria market.
Technical SEO
At Banish Media, we also take care of the technical SEO aspects of your website. Technical SEO involves optimizing the backend of your site to ensure it’s performing at its best. This includes checking for essential elements like a proper robots.txt file, ensuring your pages are being indexed correctly, and assessing your website’s loading speed. We also examine plugins to see if any are negatively impacting your site’s performance, and we look at the code structure to optimize it for better efficiency. These are all part of what we call technical SEO, which goes beyond on-page and off-page strategies to include crucial backend enhancements that contribute to your website’s overall success.
Google My Business (GMB) Optimization
GMB optimization, also known as Google Profile Optimization, is one of the most crucial aspects of local SEO, especially for Victoria businesses. This is because many people search on Google Maps using keywords like “local roofers near me” or “Mortgage brokers in Victoria.” Having a well-optimized Google Business Profile significantly increases your chances of ranking in the top three map listings, also known as the map pack. To achieve this, it’s essential that every element of your profile is fully optimized. Learn our guide to GMB optimization.
How do we perform SEO Service in Victoria
How does our Victoria SEO work?
We use a framework to perform SEO services for local businesses in Victoria. Below are the steps on how we approach it. Our SEO team leverages their expertise and local knowledge to ensure your business reaches the first page of Google, significantly enhancing website traffic and rankings.
Step 1: SEO Audit
Before we start doing SEO on your website, we perform a thorough SEO audit on your website & all other digital marketing assets. Once we have the report, it helps us to create a list of items that need attention the most and the least.
Step 2: Competitor Analysis
This step is really important. We basically go through all of your competitors, their websites internet marketing, social media, etc and create a list of things where they are doing a good job than your business in terms of internet marketing and SEO. This report becomes the SEO foundation for a business website and all of our work is based on that report.
Step 3: Keyword Research
The third step is to do deep keyword research using specialized keyword optimization tools such as AHREF, SEMrush & Moz. This gives us an idea on which keywords terms to target first, and which terms require more work than the others. We always go first towards the low-hanging fruits, i.e. keywords with high volume and low competition. This strategy helps your website get SEO and traffic boost in a short amount of time.
Step 4: On-Page Optimization
Once we have the right keywords, SEO Audit and competitor analysis report, we can start with On-page SEO. Many businesses have weak on-page SEO optimization. And again, on-page optimization is by far the most important thing you can do in the SEO space.
Step 5: Website Speed Optimization
Once we finish the on-page optimization, we optimise the website speed. According to Google, website speed plays a big role in the UX/UI. The faster the website is, the higher the website traffic rankings will be.
Step 6: Backlinks
Now here comes the Off-page SEO. Since our clients are in Victoria, we try to create partnerships with communities, businesses, events, etc to get us valuable backlinks. These backlinks serve as a ranking signal to Google and increase the website’s authority and traffic.
Step 7: We wait & see the growth
Once the previous steps are performed, we wait! Yes, you heard it right. SEO especially local SEO is all about patience. If we make too many changes to the website in a very short period of time, that sends a negative signal to Google.
Step 8: Reporting
At this stage, you will be on the first page of Google & we will be so happy to share the results with you. In any case the Google rankings still didn’t go up, we start from Step 4 again & keep doing it until we see the results.
