I have worked with Qode Media for over a year and I've had a great experience. I have the pleasure of working with Divya, Dan, and Flavia. The Qode Media model of having two account managers is very useful and when one person is away, nothing is missed. They've worked on a variety of projects around customer strategy, marketing, development, and more. All the projects I've done with them are well thought out and executed.

I switched over to Qode Media Inc last year after countless attempts with other agencies, and my business has picked up 100%. This is a real legit company with a team of knowledgable experts that know how to get your business online where it can be seen to generate leads. I personally have been working with Shreya she is truly amazing and so dedicated to look into any issues and have them corrected ASAP & even answer my emails on late hours i could not ask for more. I highly recommend Qode Media Inc.

When we started our company back in 2012, we needed a website and marketing. Qode Media did the website design and then performed SEO or search engine optimization services for the Toronto area. We were able to get enough customers so that we could become a business with employees and open an office. In all my years of business, I would never have thought that a website and Google marketing can build an entire company from scratch. We are very appreciative of all the hard work from the team at the best SEO Toronto company.

17:29 09 Jan 23

The people at Qode Media are very responsive and really put in genuine effort to ensure success for their clients. I have been working with them for years and I give them my thumbs up.

As a smaller company, we felt very confident and proud of our workmanship. All of our customers were more than satisfied with our quality, price, and professionalism. Our only challenge was marketing. We put our trust in Qode Media. They delivered in terms of SEO page 1 ranking in Google organic search, page one in Google Business Profile and outstanding return on investment on our Google Ad spend. Moreover, they are a fell service website hosting and design company so all my needs were met with one agency. Since we have been working with Qode, we have been non-stop booked for our business. In my mind, they are the top SEO Toronto Company. They have my stamp of approval

Since then my business has doubled in revenue (within 2.5 years)Working with Jordana has been a blessing. I can’t say enough. You feel like you’ve know her for years.

The SEO difference between WordPress and Squarespace

31 Mar 2016

It’s no secret that WordPress and Squarespace are among the most popular content management systems (CMS) used today. Millions of people around the world use both systems to manage their websites. Both of these systems are coded and run completely differently; your website’s SEO raking is inherently already affected just based on the CMS that you’ve decided to use. This got our Qode Media team wondering just how much each system affects SEO.

WordPress has been the leading choice for CMS for many people. The extensive library of SEO plugins and management services allows for each aspect of your site to be optimized specifically. There are hundreds of plugins that give you advanced optimization options unavailable otherwise. For some, the ability to be in charge of each specific SEO option is the perfect reason to choose WordPress.

Squarespace on the other hand doesn’t have any SEO customization options at all; in fact, Squarespace claims that “Squarespace sites come completely optimized for SEO out of the box without you having to do anything at all.” Users don’t have as much control over SEO features like sitemaps, title descriptions and search engine descriptions as they’re coded right into the theme; there aren’t any SEO plugins to make any customizations. Although not ideal for customizing SEO the way you want, the simplicity of Squarespace’s SEO allows for people who aren’t as well versed in SEO practices to provide basic optimization for their site.

Both systems have their own specific advantages regardless of their SEO integration. Each system is unique and can definitely benefit a brand based on their functionality. However, having great SEO optimization is a pretty big deal to us; that’s why we’re the best SEO and Internet marketing company in Toronto. If you’re looking for low-cost and Toronto SEO services, contact one of our Qode Media representatives today by using our online form or by giving us a call at 416-208-0157.
