Toronto & the GTA
Driving schools are a field where the website is checked before the phone is picked up. We surveyed all 642 of them in the GTA and opened every site — here is the state of the field and what a replacement costs.
Review counts are not comparable between trades — 134 is the middle for driving schools, which is a very different number from what a dentist or a barber would see. The upper quarter of this field is past 306 reviews and the busiest driving school we found holds 3,877.
What they are built on
Detected from the 512 driving schools websites we opened. 24 are on a free or entry-level builder, 1 on software discontinued years ago, and 53 still date themselves 2008 or earlier in the footer.
What actually breaks
Counted separately across all 512 sites in this field, so a site with four faults appears in four rows.
Built for this trade
One page cannot rank for everything a driving school does. Each service gets its own page, written for the words people actually type — which for this field is rarely the words the trade uses internally.
Reviews, photographs and the details that make someone pick you over the listing above yours. 18% of driving schools with a website still have no mobile version — that alone is an opening.
Forms, booking, click-to-call. 185 sites in this field have no enquiry form at all.
Questions
No. We work with local businesses across the GTA and keep a separate page per trade because what a driving school needs from a website is genuinely different from what a retailer needs. We surveyed 642 driving schools to write this one.
86 of the 642 we checked have none attached to their Google listing, and 75 more link to a site that does not load. Of the 512 working sites, 92 have no mobile version.
The median across the GTA in this field is 134; the upper quarter is past 306 and the busiest single driving school we found holds 3,877. Those numbers mean nothing outside this trade — a count that is exceptional for a driving school is unremarkable for a restaurant.
Between $590 and $3,900 for the site depending on size, paid after it is built and you have seen it. Then $129 to $990 a month for hosting, edits, your Google listing and ongoing SEO. Cancel any month.
