Field work

Recent cases in the area, Old Montreal

Three situations we regularly encounter with law firms in the H2Y area. Examples are anonymized and representative of real mandates; result ranges reflect what we measure in Search Console and Google Business Profile.

An established law firm near Rue Saint-Paul, invisible on Maps

Starting point: A Google listing created years ago, wrong primary category, outdated hours, no recent photos. The business sat in position 8 to 12 for "law firms Old Montreal" despite a storefront minutes from Rue Saint-Paul.
What we did: Full listing rebuild (corrected primary category, listed services, H2Y geotagged photos), a dedicated local page matching the exact query, and review collection restarted with existing customers.
Observed result: Around 3 positions gained in the local pack within 6 weeks, inbound calls up roughly 40%, 30 new reviews in 3 months.

A young business in the Rue Notre-Dame Est area, no local content

Starting point: A decent brochure site, but a single "Services" page with no mention of Old Montreal or the H2Y area. The result: generic traffic and very few qualified neighborhood requests.
What we did: Local pages per service zone, Answer-First blocks covering the real pre-purchase questions, LocalBusiness schema wired to coordinates and neighborhood landmarks.
Observed result: First impressions on "law firms Old Montreal" queries by month two, organic positions stabilized on page one between months four and six.

Two locations, one near Rue de la Commune, cannibalizing each other

Starting point: Two nearly identical Google listings, same copy, same photos. Google favored one and the other never surfaced, despite serving a different catchment area.
What we did: Strict differentiation: one page per address, content specific to each area, cleaned-up local citations (consistent NAP), internal links between both pages and the neighborhood page.
Observed result: Both addresses climb in their respective local packs, and the second location's organic traffic goes from near zero to a measurable share within a quarter.
