The blog is organized into seven categories: SEO and local search, online advertising, websites and conversion, automation and CRM, reputation and reviews, measurement and tracking, and search and AI. Each article walks through one real decision for a business in Greater Montreal. ### Who writes the blog articles? Articles are drafted with AI assistance, then checked and published by Marven Salgado, founder of SIB, a marketing agency based in Mascouche that has worked with local businesses across Greater Montreal since 2016. His About page covers his full professional background. ### How does the blog search work? The search bar looks through the titles and content of blog posts only, in the language of the page you're on. Type a keyword, such as a service or platform, to see matching articles. Service pages and case studies aren't included in these results. ### Do the articles replace working with the agency? The blog articles do not replace working with the agency. The articles explain the principles behind each topic, but working with SIB starts with a diagnosis specific to your business, your customers and your call or quote goals. Our service pages describe exactly what each engagement includes, step by step. ### Is the blog written for every type of business? The articles reflect situations SIB's own clients face across many industries: clinics and medical aesthetics, salons, restaurants, home services, merchants and franchises throughout Greater Montreal. Some posts focus on one industry in particular, while others apply to any local business regardless of sector.
