18% of Moncton businesses have no website
I measured. Every month my crawler checks 504 Moncton businesses across ten everyday categories and audits every website it finds. This page is what the data says, and what I build for the businesses that want to be on the right side of it.
Moncton is the fastest-growing city in the Maritimes, and growth means customers who haven’t picked their businesses yet. Every month, new arrivals choose a garage, a dentist, and a restaurant, and they choose from search results.
I don’t guess about the state of Moncton’s web presence: I measure it. The same crawler that keeps my own sites honest checks 504 local businesses across ten everyday categories, restaurants to roofers, and audits every website it finds for speed, mobile readiness, HTTPS, and the technical signals Google reads. The numbers on this page are from September 2026, and they refresh automatically.
Where Moncton businesses are losing online
- 28% of auto repair shops have no website at all: 17 of the 60 I checked.
- 26% of plumbers have no website at all: 14 of the 53 I checked.
- 22% of accountants have no website at all: 13 of the 60 I checked.
- 14% of existing sites aren’t mobile-ready, on the devices nearly every local search happens on.
- 42% give Google no structured data, so search engines only half-understand what the business even is.
- 7% of listed websites are dead or unreachable, sending customers to an error page.

Questions from Moncton businesses
Should my site be bilingual?
In Greater Moncton it’s often worth it: a third of the market lives in French. I build bilingual sites with proper hreflang signals so each language ranks on its own, and we can start English-first and add French when it pays.
Moncton has real agencies. Why hire a remote developer from Nova Scotia?
You’re not hiring a location, you’re hiring the person who does the work. With me there’s no account manager and no markup: the developer who quotes the job builds it, hosts it, and answers the phone afterward. The portfolio and the data on this page are the case.
Where are the biggest online gaps in Moncton?
The table on this page is live from my crawler: the industries with the highest no-website and failed-mobile rates are sitting right there, updated monthly.
