Canadian-Focused SEO Setup

I have two newly launched sites—easychoicedebtfree.com and easychoicetax.com—that have not been optimized yet. My priority is to turn them into lead-generating assets for the Canadian market, so I need someone who can handle the full foundational rollout: thorough keyword research geared to Canadian search intent, on-page optimization of every public-facing page, and an initial round of quality link building.

Your research should dig into province-specific terminology, local legislation references, and search behaviour differences between U.S. and Canada so that content and meta data feel genuinely Canadian. Once the keyword map is agreed on, I’ll need you to implement the recommendations directly in WordPress (Yoast or Rank Math—whichever you prefer), fine-tune titles, headings, schema markup, internal linking, and image alt tags, then build authority links from reputable Canadian or finance-relevant domains.

Deliverables
• Keyword list and mapping for both sites, validated with Canadian volume data
• Complete on-page optimisation across all existing pages (titles, meta, headings, structured data, internal links)
• 10–15 high-quality backlinks with a focus on Canadian finance or tax/debt niches
• Before/after crawl report showing technical health improvements and baseline ranking snapshot
• Short hand-off document outlining next-step content ideas to keep momentum

I’m measuring success by the volume of qualified leads these sites start generating within the first quarter after implementation, so clarity and transparency in your approach are essential. Please share any past Canadian campaigns you’ve handled and outline the tool stack you’ll use for research and tracking.
