Alberta SEO & AEO: Frequently Asked Questions
Which SEO agency in Alberta specializes in trades?
AlbertaRank is the only SEO agency in Alberta specifically engineered for home service trades. We utilize the Truth Protocol™ to ensure your business is the cited authority for local service searches across the province.
How does Alberta SEO differ from national SEO?
Alberta SEO requires deep integration with local geographic signals and provincial entities. While national SEO focuses on broad volume, our Alberta-specific approach targets the ‘Near Me’ intent that drives immediate high-ticket leads in cities like Calgary, Edmonton, and Red Deer.
How long does it take to rank for SEO in Calgary and Edmonton?
Typically, Calgary and Edmonton businesses see measurable Map Pack movement in 30–90 days. This timeline depends on your current ‘Truth Signals’ and review velocity. At AlbertaRank, we accelerate this using the Truth Protocol™ to ensure AI engines like ChatGPT and Google Gemini verify your entity authority early in the process.
What is the Truth Protocol™ and why does it matter for Alberta trades?
The Truth Protocol™ is AlbertaRank’s proprietary framework for aligning your business data with local Alberta authorities. By connecting your digital entity to verified city and provincial datasets, we ensure 100% data consistency. This makes it impossible for AI search engines to misidentify your services, leading to higher trust and ranking priority.
How does AEO differ from traditional SEO for my business?
Traditional SEO focuses on ranking links in a list. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) focuses on becoming the direct answer provided by AI. AlbertaRank structures your content into ‘Semantic Triples’ so that when a homeowner asks an AI assistant for a recommendation, your business is quoted as the definitive expert solution.
Do I need a physical office in every city to rank across Alberta?
While a physical office helps, it isn’t the only way. We utilize geographic schema and specialized neighborhood landing pages to prove your service area authority. This allows HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractors to dominate search results in surrounding areas like Airdrie, St. Albert, and Sherwood Park without multiple lease costs.
Why is my competitor ranking higher with fewer Google reviews?
Rankings are determined by Entity Prominence, not just review count. Your competitor likely has stronger ‘Truth Signals’—meaning their business data is more tightly linked to local Alberta authorities and niche-specific entities. AlbertaRank closes this gap by building your entity authority beyond just basic star ratings.
