Digital Benchmark Solutions is a Canadian digital marketing agency covering every service that moves the needle — SEO, Google Ads, social, web design, content, email and AI search — and we benchmark all of it against the competitors beating you today.
Most agencies do one thing well and outsource the rest without telling you. We run all fifteen in-house, which means your SEO, your ads and your website stop working against each other — and one team is accountable for the number at the bottom.
Technical fixes, content built around real Canadian search demand, and links that actually move rankings — measured against your competitors every single month.
ExploreGoogle Business Profile optimisation, local landing pages, citations and review generation — so the three businesses shown on the map are yours, not theirs.
ExploreSearch, Performance Max, Shopping and YouTube campaigns built around profit per conversion — with the waste cut out every week.
ExploreCreative-led Facebook and Instagram campaigns with proper tracking, built to bring in leads and sales you can trace back to a specific ad.
ExploreStrategy, content, scheduling and community management across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok — consistent enough to compound.
ExploreFast, mobile-first, SEO-ready websites in WordPress, Shopify or clean static code — designed around the enquiry, not the homepage slider.
ExploreShopify and WooCommerce growth — product SEO, Shopping feeds, paid social and the email flows that quietly pay for everything else.
ExploreResearch-led articles, service pages and lead magnets written by people who understand your industry — built to earn rankings and AI citations.
ExploreCASL-compliant campaigns and automated flows that turn one-time buyers and cold leads into repeat revenue.

ExploreLogo, identity systems, brand guidelines and the day-to-day design work that makes everything else you publish look deliberate.
ExploreShort-form vertical content, YouTube channel growth and video ads — the format Canadian audiences now spend the most time in.
ExploreTargeted prospect lists, compliant cold email and LinkedIn outreach, and landing funnels that book meetings into your calendar.
ExploreGA4, Google Tag Manager, call tracking, server-side events and one dashboard that finally agrees with your bank account.
ExploreAnswer Engine Optimisation — the work that makes AI assistants name your business when Canadians ask them who to hire.
ExploreMarketing goes wrong when nobody can say what "good" looks like. So before we propose anything, we measure where you stand against the three competitors you name, across every channel that matters.
A deliberately boring process, run consistently. That's what produces results people call remarkable.
We measure where you actually stand — rankings, traffic, ad efficiency, conversion rate and AI citations — against the three competitors you name. Nothing gets proposed until we can see the gap.
You get a written plan with the work in priority order, what each piece should move, and what it costs. If something isn't worth doing yet, we say so rather than padding the retainer.
Technical fixes, pages, campaigns, creative and tracking get shipped. Tracking always comes first, because everything after it is guesswork without it.
One dashboard, live, showing spend, leads and cost per lead by channel. You never have to ask what's happening — you can just look.
Every month we cut what underperforms and put the budget behind what works. That compounding is the whole point, and it's why the second year beats the first.
Most agency relationships fail for the same reason: the client cannot tell whether it's working. We built the whole company around removing that doubt.
Every engagement opens with a measured baseline against named competitors. You always know whether you're winning.
Month to month after the first 90 days. We'd rather earn the renewal than enforce it.
Your accounts, your domains, your data, your creative files. If we part ways, nothing walks out the door with us.
No account manager relaying messages to a team you never meet. You talk to the people doing the work.
A live dashboard plus a monthly note in plain English: what we did, what changed, what's next.
If a channel won't work for your margins, we'll tell you before you spend, not after.
More Canadians every month are asking ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Perplexity who they should hire — and acting on the three names that come back. Those answers are being decided right now, and almost none of your competitors are working on it.
We benchmark how often each engine names your business for the prompts your buyers actually use, then systematically improve the signals that drive it: machine-readable facts about your company, answer-shaped content, and third-party corroboration across the sites these models read.
We run a fixed set of buyer-intent prompts against five answer engines on a schedule and log every business named. That produces a share-of-voice figure that moves over time, instead of a screenshot that proves nothing.
Every industry has its own search behaviour, seasonality and buying cycle. Here's where we've done the homework.
Search behaviour in Surrey is not search behaviour in Sainte-Foy. We publish a dedicated page for every market we serve, with the local competition, language and seasonality that actually apply there.
In practice, three things: bring the right people to your website, convince them to contact you, and prove which of those two things is working. We cover the full set — SEO, paid ads, social, content, email, web design and analytics — but a good agency will only sell you the parts your business actually needs right now.
Most small and mid-sized Canadian businesses invest between $690 and $2990 CAD per month with an agency, plus ad spend if paid channels are involved. Our packages start at $690/month and everything is quoted before you commit — see our pricing page for what's included at each level.
Yes — we work with clients right across Canada, from Victoria to St. John's, and everything runs remotely. We publish a page for each of the 33 markets we cover so you can see how we'd approach yours specifically.
Paid channels produce leads within days of launching. SEO and content typically show real movement in 6–12 weeks and compound from there. Anyone quoting faster than that on organic search is either misleading you or about to take a shortcut you'll regret.
Yes. For Quebec and bilingual markets like Ottawa–Gatineau we build native French content rather than translations, with correct hreflang so both language versions rank without competing with each other.
No. After the first 90 days — which is the minimum honest runway for most work to show results — everything is month to month.
Send us your website and the three businesses that beat you. Within two business days you'll get a written benchmark — where you stand, what's costing you leads and what we'd fix first. No charge, no obligation.
