SEO Optimization and Content Strategy for a Sports Centre of Excellence in Gatineau
Gym Beaudoin-Gym PurSang, a leading establishment in the Outaouais region specializing in disciplines such as fitness, karate and cross-training, mandated our SEO agency in Montreal to improve its positioning on the web.

To improve the positioning of the Gym PurSang in the search results, a complete semantic analysis was carried out. This study identified relevant keywords for each service, such as “karate kids Gatineau,” “cross-training Outaouais,” or “personalized fitness classes.”
