Burnaby SEO services for local and B2B businesses

Usually because Google is not sure your business belongs to the Burnaby search. Common causes: your Google Business Profile uses a broad category or a service area that reads as "Metro Vancouver"; your website mentions Burnaby once, in the footer; your address is formatted differently across directories; or a Vancouver competitor simply has more recent reviews and a page that names Burnaby neighbourhoods. Burnaby sits right against the Vancouver city line at Boundary Road, so map results overlap constantly. A Burnaby SEO audit checks each of these causes against the businesses that currently win your searches and tells you which fix to make first.

Yes, enough that they should be treated differently. Google often treats Burnaby as a distinct local entity from Vancouver in the 3-pack, which means a Vancouver-only SEO strategy will leave Burnaby traffic on the table. Burnaby also has sharper neighborhood distinctions (Metrotown, Brentwood, Lougheed, Edmonds) that reward focused landing pages.

Yes. Independent retailers near Metrotown have a brutal disadvantage against big-box anchor stores in organic rank, but local pack and GBP is where the real fight happens, and those levers favor small, focused businesses with tight operational consistency. We build strategies that stop trying to beat the mall on head terms and win on local intent instead.

Yes. Many Burnaby tech businesses in parks like Lake City, Willingdon, and Glenlyon sell B2B, where SEO looks different: longer buying cycles, keyword intent focused on problems and solutions rather than location, and a heavy GEO / AI search component because decision-makers are researching in ChatGPT and Perplexity. We build hybrid strategies that cover traditional SEO, GEO, and account-based signals.

Each location needs its own GBP with real differentiation. Many Burnaby multi-location businesses (clinics, fitness studios, professional services) cannibalize their own listings by copy-pasting the same content across locations. We help define what makes each location distinct and set up ongoing processes so reviews, posts, and photos stay updated across all of them.

Month one is diagnosis: a technical crawl, a Search Console review of the Burnaby queries you already appear for, and a check of your Google Business Profile against the businesses that win your map results in Metrotown, Brentwood, Lougheed, or Edmonds. Month two is fixes: categories, service areas, schema, page titles, and a page for each part of Burnaby you genuinely serve. Month three is the first content and review work, plus a report showing calls, direction requests, and form fills by area. If a Burnaby SEO company cannot describe its first 90 days that specifically, keep looking.

Sometimes. At the 2021 Census, 11 percent of Burnaby residents spoke Mandarin most often at home, 8 percent Cantonese, and 3 percent Korean, so for clinics, real estate, tutoring, and professional services, a translated page can reach searches English-only competitors miss. We produce those pages with AI-assisted translation, with professional human review arranged on request, and set up hreflang so Google shows the right version. If your customers mainly search in English, we will say so and skip it.

Retainers start from $2,500 a month for a single-location Burnaby business, from $3,500 for multi-location or multi-neighbourhood programs, and from $5,000 for B2B tech and competitive categories. A one-time audit or Google Business Profile cleanup is available if you want a fix list before committing to a retainer. Prices are quoted in writing before any work starts.
