Canadian Process Serving Inc.

Canadian Process Serving Inc.

We are:

  • North America’s largest process serving company
  • A professional association of retired peace officers
  • A legitimate and dedicated operation: we are not a directory or ‘middleman’
  • Celebrating 35 years in business!

Remember the old saying “You get what you pay for?” There is a reason why this statement is used so often. In our industry there is a “HUGE” amount of fly-by-night operations that are here today and gone tomorrow. Ask yourself what your ‘peace of mind’ is worth. Also ask yourself what it means to know that you can trust a company 100% and know that the affidavit you receive is worth the paper it is written on. There is a good reason why we have been in business for 35 years: TRUST.

Our process servers are retired peace officers recruited from the ranks of City, Provincial, and RCMP forces. Over the years we’ve acquired a solid reputation among the North American legal community for accomplishing difficult services: we’ve served celebrities, political figures, and individuals who have evaded other companies. We have been in business since 1983 and include the nation’s top law firms in our list of regular clients.

After 35 years in business, we are at our highest number of corporate offices, resulting in the greatest amount of coverage and lowest bill totals ever.

Yoast BV

Yoast BV

Yoast – SEO for everyone

Yoast helps you to get the most out of your website by making SEO available for everyone. You
might know our Yoast SEO plugin; with over 7.8 million active installs, Yoast SEO is one of the
most popular WordPress plugins worldwide.

At Yoast, we believe in holistic SEO: not just one aspect of a website, but all aspects are
important and should, therefore, be as good as possible. We don’t approach SEO as a trick to
rank higher in Google but stimulate site owners to make their site the best search result. All
awesome websites have three things in common: they’re easy to use, contain the right
information, and they’re fast and reliable. If you do all that right, a website becomes easier to
find as well!

Our products help people create remarkable sites. We offer WordPress plugins that make
optimizing your WordPress website as easy as pie. In addition to that, our online courses help
you develop the skills to make your website easier to find. And it doesn’t stop there: we’ve
partnered with Magento and TYPO3 experts and brought Yoast SEO to other platforms too, as
we love to contribute to open source projects. All that ties up nicely with our ultimate goal: trying
to make the web better for everyone.
