The Problem

YOUR WEBSITE IS SPEAKING A LANGUAGE GOOGLE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND

Most local business websites were built by someone who knew how to make things look good. That's not enough. Google doesn't look at your site the way a person does. It reads code, crawls structure, and weighs signals that most designers never think about.

The result: a website that looks fine and does nothing. We've seen businesses spend $5,000 on a new website and drop in rankings the week it launched, because nobody optimized a single page for search.

On-page SEO fixes the foundation. Everything else, GBP, citations, content, builds on top of it.

Typical Local Business Site: Before Optimization
Title Tag Optimization 12%
Keyword Placement 8%
Page Speed Score 34%
Internal Link Structure 20%
Local Schema Markup 0%
Mobile Optimization 61%

What's Included

EVERY SIGNAL GOOGLE
USES TO RANK YOU. FIXED.

Crawlability

FULL TECHNICAL AUDIT

We crawl your entire site the same way Google does. Broken links, redirect chains, duplicate content, crawl errors, missing canonical tags. Everything that's silently sabotaging your rankings gets identified and fixed.

Relevance

TITLE TAGS & META DESCRIPTIONS

These are the first thing Google reads and the first thing a searcher sees. We rewrite every single one with precision: targeted keywords, location signals, and compelling copy that earns the click even when you're ranked second or third.

Structure

HEADER HIERARCHY & CONTENT

H1, H2, H3 tags aren't just formatting. They tell Google what each page is about and how concepts relate to each other. We restructure your page hierarchy so the right keywords appear in the right places with the right weight.

Geography

LOCAL LANDING PAGES

If you serve multiple towns (Red Deer, Ponoka, Lacombe, Innisfail) a single homepage isn't enough. We build dedicated, optimized landing pages for each service area, so you rank locally in every market you serve.

Authority

INTERNAL LINKING STRATEGY

How your pages link to each other tells Google which pages matter most. We map and build an internal link structure that distributes authority to the pages you most need to rank, without wasting it on dead ends.

Performance

CORE WEB VITALS

Page speed is a confirmed Google ranking factor. We audit your Core Web Vitals (load time, layout shift, interactivity) and provide specific, actionable fixes or work directly with your developer to implement them.

The Difference

WHAT CHANGES AFTER
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH YOUR SITE

Before Cresline
  • Title tags say "Home" or just the business name, no keywords, no location
  • Every page targets the same vague keywords, or none at all
  • Page loads in 6+ seconds. Google penalizes you silently
  • No schema markup. Google doesn't know your address, hours, or service type
  • All your service areas funnel to one generic homepage
  • Broken internal links waste what little authority you've built
  • Mobile experience is an afterthought, and 70% of searches are mobile
After Cresline
  • Every page has a precise title tag with service keyword + city + intent
  • Each page targets one clear keyword cluster, no cannibalization
  • Page speed optimized: sub-3 second loads wherever possible
  • Local business schema installed. Google reads your NAP, hours, and categories
  • Dedicated landing pages for each service area you want to rank in
  • Clean internal linking structure routing authority where it counts
  • Mobile-first, fully optimized for the device 7 in 10 customers use

Questions

THINGS PEOPLE ASK US

Every site is different. If you have a specific question about your situation, reach out directly. We'll give you a straight answer.

Ask Us Directly
Do you need access to my website to do this? +

For a full implementation, yes. We'll need editor access to your CMS (WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, etc.). For the initial audit, we can identify all issues externally without any access. We'll walk you through what we need before any work begins.

What if I don't have a website yet? +

This is actually an opportunity. Building SEO in from day one is far more effective than retrofitting it later. We can advise on site structure, content requirements, and technical setup before your developer builds, or refer you to someone who can build it right.

How long does on-page SEO take to show results? +

Technical changes can be indexed by Google within days. Ranking movement typically takes 60 to 120 days for competitive keywords, and faster for low-competition local terms. On-page SEO is the foundation. GBP and citation work stacked on top accelerates the results significantly.

Will you need to change my website's design? +

Rarely. Most on-page SEO changes are invisible to visitors. They're in the code, the metadata, and the content structure. We may recommend adding content to thin pages, but we don't redesign unless you want us to.

Is on-page SEO a one-time thing or ongoing? +

The initial build is the heavy lift. After that, we monitor performance, make adjustments as Google's algorithm updates, and optimize new pages as your site grows. Most clients combine this with our GBP and citation services for a full local SEO package.

YOUR WEBSITE
IS COSTING YOU CUSTOMERS.
