What they are built on

What Markham runs on.

Behind the 26 sites we counted 3 platforms. The split says something about budget: 50% on WordPress usually means somebody was paid to build it, while the 0 on free builders were almost always put together by the owner.

on 10 of them.

Out of 26 sites in Markham, 10 have no enquiry form anywhere on the site and 6 have page title does not name the city they work in. We counted each fault separately, so a site with three of them appears in three rows below.

None of the 11 faults we counted in Markham requires a rebuild on its own. They add up to one, though, when a site carries four or five of them at once.

What this means for you

The Markham leaders
already fixed this.

4 of the five most-reviewed movers in Markham run a secure site that works on a phone. Between them they hold 1,926 reviews. That is the standard a customer compares you against before reading a word about you.

Where a mover lands depends on how many services need a page of their own — $590 at the small end, $3,900 for a practice with a dozen. Nothing is due until it is finished. Full pricing.

Questions

The usual questions.

How many movers are there in Markham?

27 listings, of which 4 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 23 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.

How many Google reviews do I need to compete in Markham?

To be average in Markham you need 70. To be in the top quarter you need more than 164. To be visible next to the busiest mover here you would need 630, which took them years. 17 of the 27 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a mover in Markham cost?

Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.

Before you decide anything

Find out whether
you have a problem.

Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
