Toronto & the GTA
We build websites and run local SEO for movers across the Greater Toronto Area. Everything below comes from our own survey of 620 listings in this field — we opened all 558 of their websites and checked what was there.
Review counts are not comparable between trades — 67 is the middle for movers, which is a very different number from what a dentist or a barber would see. The upper quarter of this field is past 164 reviews and the busiest mover we found holds 3,219.
What they are built on
Detected from the 558 moving companies websites we opened. 18 are on a free or entry-level builder, 3 on software discontinued years ago, and 57 still date themselves 1995 or earlier in the footer.
What actually breaks
Counted separately across all 558 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 mover 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. 20% of movers with a website still have no mobile version — that alone is an opening.
Forms, booking, click-to-call. 151 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 mover needs from a website is genuinely different from what a retailer needs. We surveyed 620 moving companies to write this one.
60 of the 620 we checked have none attached to their Google listing, and 83 more link to a site that does not load. Of the 558 working sites, 111 have no mobile version.
The median across the GTA in this field is 67; the upper quarter is past 164 and the busiest single mover we found holds 3,219. Those numbers mean nothing outside this trade — a count that is exceptional for a mover is unremarkable for a restaurant.

Your turn
The check behind this page is the one we ran on every business above. Put your own address in and it will load your site on a phone screen, look at the certificate and the page age, and tell you what a visitor meets. No email, nothing stored.
We build the site, you look at it, and you pay once it is finished and you are happy with it. Hosting, edits and the Google listing carry on monthly, cancellable any month.
