How Agincourt homeowners find a contractor
Searching in Chinese characters
Some homeowners type their furnace or plumbing search in Chinese, and others mix both languages in one query.
Chat-group recommendations
Names get passed around community chat groups, then looked up on Google before anyone calls.
Can someone explain the quote?
Owners want to know quickly whether your team can walk them through the job in their language.
Key pages in both languages, written by people, not a translator app.
Heat pumps, 1960s backsplits and searches in two languages
Around Sheppard Avenue East and Midland, with the Agincourt GO station near the middle and Markham just north, most streets are lined with 1960s backsplits, bungalows and semis, plus newer townhouses. Houses that age need new furnaces, air conditioning and heat pumps, and updated kitchens and bathrooms. Agincourt is also home to one of Toronto's largest Chinese-Canadian communities, and many homeowners search in Chinese as well as English.
A bilingual site has to be done properly to work. Key service pages come in English and Chinese, written for how people search, and set up so Google shows each version to the right person. Your Google Business Profile lists the languages your team speaks, and rankings get tracked in both, so you can see which searches turn into booked jobs.

Agincourt web design questions
Should we use Simplified or Traditional Chinese?
It depends on your customers. Families with roots in Hong Kong or Taiwan often read Traditional Chinese, while many people from mainland China read Simplified. We look at who you serve and recommend one or both, and the site is set up so each version is easy to find.
Who writes the Chinese pages?
We write the English pages for search, then work with you or a fluent writer you trust to produce the Chinese versions. Machine translation is a starting draft at best. A homeowner can tell when a page was pushed through an app, and it costs you the trust the page was meant to earn.
Does a bilingual site cost more?
Projects start at $1,500, and adding Chinese pages means extra writing and setup on top of that. How much depends on how many pages you want in both languages. Many companies start with their three or four biggest services and add the rest later.
How do we show up in the Maps pack in Agincourt?
Agincourt's results draw in businesses from across Scarborough and Markham. We optimize your profile, build an Agincourt page, help you collect reviews from local customers in either language and track your rankings around Sheppard and Midland, so you can see whether you're gaining ground on companies based farther away.
