What Licheo does for a Burnaby business

Metrotown and Brentwood hold the most licences

On October 31, 2026, Burnaby's open data held 18,816 business licences. Set aside the 3,964 for rentals and 14,852 are left. The City's community plan areas show where they gather: Metrotown has 2,362 of them, Brentwood 1,533, Royal Oak 1,103 and Edmonds 977. Metrotown alone counts 205 restaurant licences.

A shop near Metrotown shares a few blocks with hundreds of other businesses. Your Google listing should name exactly what you sell, show photos of the room and the shelves, and give hours that stay correct on holidays. Your website should repeat the same name, address and phone number, and mention Metrotown or Brentwood on the page where it is true.

Clinics and therapists: 1,980 health licences

1,980 Burnaby licences are for health services, and 1,044 of them belong to registered therapists. A person with a sore back who searches in Burnaby sees a long list of clinics.

Help that person decide. Give each treatment its own page: who it helps, how long a visit lasts, whether you bill the insurer directly and how to book. Show each practitioner with a photo and their registration. Ask patients who are happy with you for a Google review in their own words. These details answer a patient's questions, and they give Google and ChatGPT plain facts to repeat when someone asks about a clinic in Burnaby.

Mandarin, Cantonese and Korean in Burnaby homes

The 2021 Census found 86,460 Burnaby residents whose main home language is neither English nor French. 46,440 named a Chinese language, among them 25,565 Mandarin and 19,090 Cantonese speakers, and 5,975 named Korean. 16,060 residents can speak neither English nor French.

If your team speaks one of these languages, write it on your website and in your Google listing. A page for your main services in that language, prepared by a fluent writer, lets a family read about you without help. The same goes for trades: Burnaby has 1,286 home-based contractor licences, and a contractor who can explain a job in Korean or Mandarin should say so on every service page.

Questions Burnaby owners ask us

Why does another Burnaby business appear above mine on Google Maps?

Compare the two: the categories, the list of services, how recent the reviews are, the photos, and whether the website repeats the same name, address and phone. With 14,852 business licences in Burnaby once rentals are set aside, such details separate one name from the next. The free Get Found Check sets the two sites next to each other and lists what yours lacks.

Should my Burnaby website have a page for Metrotown and another for Brentwood?

Yes, if you serve customers in both. Burnaby's community plan areas include Metrotown, Brentwood, Edmonds, Lougheed and Royal Oak, and these are names local people use. Fill each page with real details from that area: the street your shop is on, jobs you finished there, where to park. Leave out the areas you never serve, because copies with only the name changed help nobody.

Should my Burnaby business have a website in Mandarin or Korean?

If many of your customers speak one of these at home, yes. In the 2021 Census, 25,565 Burnaby residents named Mandarin, 19,090 Cantonese and 5,975 Korean as the language they speak most often at home. Start with your main services, have a fluent person write them, and list the languages your staff speak on your Google listing.

I run a physiotherapy or massage clinic in Burnaby. How do I get more patients online?

Explain your care before the patient arrives. Burnaby has 1,044 licences for registered therapists inside 1,980 health service licences, so patients compare many clinics. Write a page for each treatment, show each practitioner with a photo and registration number, say whether you bill insurers directly, and make booking possible from a phone in a few taps. Then ask patients for reviews that name the treatment they had.

Can ChatGPT recommend my Burnaby business?

Yes, once the facts about you are clear and agree with each other. ChatGPT and Google's AI answers read your website, your Google listing, your reviews and the directories that mention you. We write your services, your Burnaby areas and your languages in plain sentences, keep them the same in every place, and check each month whether ChatGPT names your business when asked.

My Burnaby business already has a website. Is it lost if I switch?

No, it comes with you. Your Burnaby site moves to our platform keeping the same look, pages and web address, and Google keeps what it has learned about you. The move is done in two weeks. From then on we write the service and area pages it lacks, and the work continues each week.

How will I know if my Burnaby website is bringing in customers?

A plain monthly report shows it. It counts the calls, messages and bookings your Burnaby website produced, and names the place each person came from, such as Google search, the map, ChatGPT or a directory. Put one month next to the next and ask us about any number that is unclear.

What will I learn about my Burnaby business from the free Get Found Check?

It grades your website with a letter in under a minute. You see whether Google and AI assistants read your services and the Burnaby areas you cover, which fixes to make first, and how you compare with nearby competitors. There is no fee and no account to create, so run it again whenever you change something.

I am a contractor working from my Burnaby home. Do I need a website at all?

Yes, because customers have no shop to walk into. Burnaby has 1,286 licences for home-based contractors and 1,755 more for contractor trades, and a homeowner checks your website and Google listing before calling. Show photos of finished Burnaby jobs, list the areas you cover, give your licence and insurance details, and keep your home address hidden on Google if clients never come to you.
