When you look for a new business, do you just visit their location and walk in the door? Do you pick up a phone book and see what’s around? No, you don’t. No one does! Now, we use a search engine to see what’s in our area, and we make a decision rather quickly based on what sites come up and the impression we get from their websites. Often, these impressions only take a few seconds! To help ensure your office is one of the first to be seen when someone Googles a dental practice in your area, you need search engine optimization.

Google and other search engines can recognize when a user wants to find nearby services, and can adjust the links they provide accordingly. The efforts you make to ensure your links appear in local searches is referred to as local SEO. While many websites have little to worry about when it comes to local search rankings, your online marketing success can be closely tied to how effective you are at reaching people in and around your location. After all, people may appreciate the information you share online, but you can hardly expect someone to drive great distances for routine dental services! When working with dental offices, we make local SEO a priority in order to make you visible with the right people. Our goal as we build websites and maintain them with site content is to include information that leads to the most useful site traffic, rather than simply trying to raise your overall visits.
