SEO and Social Media Marketing for Toronto Refrigeration
Client Overview: Toronto Refrigeration
Toronto Refrigeration is a well-established business specializing in refrigeration services for residential and commercial customers across the Greater Toronto Area. The company has built a strong reputation for reliability and expertise in refrigeration by offering top-notch services such as repairs, installations, and maintenance. However, as digital marketing became increasingly essential for business growth, Toronto Refrigeration recognized that its current SEO and social media marketing efforts were not delivering the desired results.
Despite having a professional website and established social media accounts, Toronto Refrigeration struggled to attract new customers online and needed help. Their search engine optimization (SEO) performance was weak, with poor rankings on search engines like Google, leading to low website traffic. Furthermore, their social media marketing efforts lacked a cohesive strategy, which meant they weren’t effectively reaching their target audience.
Toronto Refrigeration partnered with LinkLumin to revamp its SEO strategy and implement a targeted social media marketing strategy to boost its online presence, drive relevant traffic, and generate leads.
Client Goals
Before engaging LinkLumin, Toronto Refrigeration had three primary goals:
Improve Online Visibility:
Achieve better rankings on search engines to appear on the first page of Google and attract more traffic from local customers searching for refrigeration services.
Increase Brand Awareness on Social Media:
Build a strong social media presence to connect with residential and commercial customers while enhancing the company’s reputation and authority in the industry.
Generate Leads and Boost Engagement:
Convert increased visibility into qualified leads and higher engagement on social media and the website, ultimately driving business growth.
Challenges: Low Online Visibility and Ineffective Social Media Marketing
Poor SEO Performance
Before working with LinkLumin, Toronto Refrigeration had low visibility on major search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. Despite offering high-quality services, they were not ranking on the first search engine results page for key terms related to refrigeration services in Toronto.
Some of the major challenges included:
Weak On-Page SEO:
Their website must be optimized for important search engine optimization (SEO) factors such as meta tags, keyword usage, and alt text.
Lack of Technical SEO:
The website had technical issues such as slow page loading times, broken links, and poor mobile usability, negatively affecting its SEO performance.
Lack of Local SEO:

Social Media Marketing Challenges
Despite having accounts on key social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, Toronto Refrigeration’s social media marketing efforts were inconsistent and lacked a strategic approach:
No Clear Social Media Marketing Strategy:
Their posts were infrequent and lacked coherence, resulting in minimal engagement and no measurable increase in brand awareness. Posts did not cater to their target audience or reflect their expertise in the industry.
Low Engagement on Social Media Posts:
The published posts were not designed to drive engagement, as they did not offer value or encourage interaction. Additionally, no focus was on creating engaging visuals or using high-quality images.
Limited Use of Paid Social Media Ads:
Toronto Refrigeration had not invested in social ads, which meant they were missing out on opportunities to reach a broader and more targeted audience through Facebook users and other social media channels.
