1st on the List is a full service boutique SEO company located just outside of Vancouver, BC. Over the last 22 years we’ve used our expertise and experience to help clients with a range of custom SEO services, Pay Per Click Management and SEO Web Design, including website redesign and mobile web design services.

Each of our core staff has over a decade of experience, having serviced hundreds of SEO clients in Canada and the US in a diverse range of industries and markets. A deep understanding of Search Engine history and how Search Engines work plus our strict adherence to current search engine guidelines enables us to achieve long term, stable visibility for our clients with scalable growth.

One of the major differences in our SEO services is that all projects begin with a Detailed Site Audit which helps us identify deeper SEO issues on a website. We help prioritize and fix any issues prior to optimization beginning. In our experience our Site Audits ensure that you will obtain the best results possible. Any amount of onsite updates and linking can’t overcome the foundational issues we find on many sites.

In today’s marketplace virtually every web designer and marketing firm offers Search Engine Optimization as an add-on for their clients in addition to their core services. Some even outsource the SEO. Our core focus has always been SEO which means our full attention is on Search Marketing, the latest trends and the best practices. SEO isn’t an afterthought for us – it’s what we live and breathe!

We seek to establish long term working relationships with a limited number of clients. We truly care about your website and the success of your business as much as you do. You can count on us.

After opening for business in 2016, Safe Earth needed an affordable and productive marketing strategy to grow its clientele and expand into new cities.

…
official busy season. Since starting the campaign the client hasn’t looked back saying the results we’ve helped achieve are “unheard of”!

Owner Bob Keith says,“I am a one-man operator and I routinely gain 40+ customers per month which is unheard of in pest control. 1st on the List has extremely competitive rates for the results they deliver.

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the office manager at Keen on Green Disposal & Recycling. We are a local owner-operated junk removal company in Vancouver, BC. We pride ourselves in our desire to better the environment through our work and reduce the impact of waste. We work with organizations to ensure that as much waste is diverted from our landfills as possible, through recycling, repurposing and donation.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire 1st on the List Promotion ?

Our company website had problems. It was outdated, lacking in ability to convert leads, and we had frankly just outgrown it. With the growth of our organization, we wanted to improve our conversion rates and brand through the creation of a new website. We hired 1st on the List to not only work on our SEO, but to also help in the creation of a new high-conversion website that would be able to grow with us and showcase our services to our clients.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to increase our traffic, and increase conversions/bookings that originated on the site. We also wanted to have a website that was in-line with our company brand and that was able to highlight the best of our business. We believed that this new website would help us to continue to grow in a competitive market.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We had already heard of 1st on the List before from other businesses in our network, and had heard good things about them. We first hired them solely to work on our SEO. Upon deciding to create a new website, we then decided to also see if they were open to joining our project team to help brainstorm and envision what a successful website would look like. It started from that.

Describe the project in detail.

1st on the List (particularly Neeraj) saw through the entire project. First we worked in a team to brainstorm a vision for the website, we designed an outline of what we wanted our new website to look like. We found a designer together. We did research, we organized a photoshoot and video to create custom content to be added to our site. We brainstormed taglines. Neeraj helped with SEO and content. From start to finish, 1st on the List was involved in every aspect of the website creation.

What was the team composition?

The team comprised of myself, our owner Wilson, our web designer and Neeraj from 1st on the List. This team was there through beginning to end of the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our new website turned out GREAT! They have matched and exceeded our expectations. Although it is still too early to have the true impact of traffic and other metrics, we can already see that this website is much more effective than our last. It has received great feedback, and I know that this will result in even strong search rankings.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I believe that our team worked very well together and is part of the reason that we achieved such great results. Communication was strong. Neeraj at 1st on the List was always open to answering our calls, or responding to e-mails with questions or ideas. Follow up was always prompt and deadlines were always met. We used video chat, voice calling and e-mail to manage our communications, as well as written out project plans.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

We were very impressed by their wide array of knowledge and their willingness to go above and beyond to help us. They were able to refer us to quality vendors and professionals when needed, which was also very helpful. Their high level of customer service and expertise really distinguished them from other companies we have worked with in the past.

Are there any areas for improvement?

We were very satisfied with the work and assistance that we received. Their service and willingness to go above and beyond was top-notch.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the manager of Urban Body Laser, a medi-spa.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire 1st on the List Promotion?

We were unhappy with our previous web development services provider and were looking to make a change.

What were your goals for this project?

We were hoping a new website and more digital advertising would improve both conversions and sales.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

A friend referred us to them.

Describe the project in detail.

Using information from our current website, List Promotion built a new website focused on conversions rather than simply displaying information. They also implemented Google Analytics. Now, they provide monthly SEO reports.

What was the team composition?

We worked with a web developer and an SEO/conversions specialist. There was also another resource that oversaw the entire project. Our team stayed constant throughout the development, and they consulted us on every change.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any statistics or metrics that speak to the quality of their work and impact of the engagement?

The website looks wonderful and converts visitors at a much higher rate than our old website did. Sales have increased MoM more than we expected.

How did the 1st on the List Promotion perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve been amazing to work with, always responding to us promptly and offering friendly and engaging service. Most refreshing has been their genuine excitement for our success. Communication wise, we speak through phone calls and emails.

What impresses you about the 1st on the List Promotion?

Their results, experience, and professionalism all stood out to me, but their customer service is particularly noteworthy. Unlike other companies we’ve worked with, they provide monthly reports on their progress and include us in every decision they make. Nothing on our site changes until we both agree to it.

Are there any areas for improvement?

The only area I can name is development speed. It took a little longer than we had anticipated.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your organization.

We are Mirage Screen Systems Inc.

What is your role and responsibilities?

I’m the CEO.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What was your goal for working with 1st on the List Promotion?

Our Web traffic flattened out and that affects our sales. We wanted to grow Web traffic.

SOLUTION

Please describe the scope of their work.

Organic SEO [search engine optimization] is the main service provided. We’re planning to do more types of digital marketing activities with them. Every six months, we meet in person and review everything they are doing and strategize for the next period.

What was your process for selecting 1st on the List Promotion with which to work?

I asked around to my network and four different businesses suggested 1st on the List.

Can you give a sense of the size of the initiative in dollar terms or a personnel work-hour figure?

It was about $10,000 to $50,000.

When was the work completed?

We started the engagement slightly more than a year ago. It’s ongoing work.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Do you have any statistics or metrics to track improvement from the project?

Our traffic results have gone up 20 percent year to year. We’ve seen an increase in sales also.

Are you satisfied with their performance?

Yes, we are happy.  

Is there anything unique or special about 1st on the List Promotion that really makes them stand out compared to other business partners?

They’re not snake oil sales guys. They are honest and deliver. They’re very reasonably priced.

What advice would you give to future clients of theirs?

Just know what you want to accomplish and know how much money you’re prepared to spend. Be consistent and don’t change course all the time. Don’t spend a bunch of money and then let your plan drop off. Organic SEO requires a large time investment to be successful.

Looking back on the work so far, is there any area that you think they could improve upon or that you might do differently?

Not really.

BACKGROUND

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

Our goal for the work with 1st on the List Promotion was to improve the search engine search results for our website.

SOLUTION

1st on the List primarily worked on organic SEO [search engine optimization]. I selected them after working with two other agencies that failed to deliver. Those firms produced minimal results and so that lead me to 1st on the List Promotion.

I selected them because they seemed to be more organized and have a better process than competitors. They have very sound strategies and produce real results. I have worked with 1st on the List for about four years and have no plans to stop the engagement.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We are very satisfied with their work. Their strategies are well thought out and they provide quality customer service. We have seen strong growth in website traffic and I can tell their employees are industry experts that keep me ahead of changes in Google's algorithms.

They have a top-notch team and I have no complaints. My advice to their future clients is to have your goals well-defined going into the project.

In terms of results, we saw a month-to-month improvement in organic search traffic, with several pieces of content ranking on the first page of Google. We were able to extend our brand awareness. Overall, we were targeting awareness in the local area more than sales, and that was successful.
