movers in Toronto.

There are 27 moving companies listed on Google Maps in Toronto. 25 of them put a website on the listing, and we opened every one of those 25 ourselves. Here is what was behind them.

5 of the 25 Toronto sites had nothing wrong with them at all. The other 20 had at least one of the faults listed above, and most had more than one.

What they are built on

72% of them run
the same platform.

Behind the 25 sites we counted 3 platforms. The split says something about budget: 72% on WordPress usually means somebody was paid to build it, while the 1 on free builders were almost always put together by the owner.

What actually breaks

Copyright line years out of date
on 9 of them.

Out of 25 sites in Toronto, 9 have copyright line years out of date and 6 have page title does not name the city they work in.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 9 faults we counted in Toronto requires a rebuild on its own. They add up to one, though, when a site carries four or five of them at once.

Who you are up against

What this means for you

The Toronto leaders
already fixed this.

4 of the five most-reviewed movers in Toronto run a secure site that works on a phone. Between them they hold 5,581 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

Before you ask.

How many movers are there in Toronto?

27 listings, of which 5 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 22 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 Toronto?

To be average in Toronto you need 141. To be in the top quarter you need more than 449. To be visible next to the busiest mover here you would need 2,004, which took them years. 15 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 Toronto 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.
