Of course, this doesn’t just apply to dentists, as MDPM Dental Marketing recently completed a total rebrand and website redesign as well!

Will Google’s SERP Changes Affect Your Online Visibility?
Thanks to a recent update to both paid and organic search results, Google’s search engine results pages (SERPs) have taken on a different look for desktop users. While some of these changes are cosmetic, they can add a new level of detail to the links provided in response to different queries. This is far from the first time a change has impacted SERPs. Over time, Google has found ways to include more information into the results they provide, making it easier for people to select a link that serves their needs. As part of our commitment to helping clients boost their SEO, we pay attention to the ways SERPs can change, and to what information you can include with links. As part of our support for your dental office, we can make sure you have helpful information included in every link while also helping your links appear more prominently in relevant search topics!

How Does A Google Broad Core Update Affect Your SEO?
Will you be affected by Google’s latest broad core algorithm update? Earlier this month, the search engine announced that it was implementing another one of its algorithm updates, one that can affect all search results and topics. This is not a change in response to a specific issue, or one that is meant to correct an ongoing issue. As new links and websites continue to appear and require indexing by search engines, broad core updates help ensure that pages are being properly evaluated and ranked over time. As a result, some sites can slip in search engine results pages (SERPs), even if they have not done anything wrong. It is worth noting that in addition to evaluating a site’s content and features, Google relies on user engagement and user experience to gauge where different links should be ranked.
So how will your SEO efforts be impacted now that Google has implemented a new update? If new dental practices have opened up around you and created websites of their own, or if your website is aging to the point where it is not as user-friendly as it could be, it can be hard to maintain your visibility in relevant searches. We have experience helping dental practices generate better results through digital marketing because we focus on organic SEO efforts. In addition to making your sites more attractive, and providing valuable content for your pages, we can talk to you about efforts that go beyond website management to help you connect with more people online, and attract new patients.

Let us take a deeper look at these trends.
Making Instagram Part Of Your Content Marketing Strategy
Have you considered Instagram’s potential for helping you attract more patients to your dental practice? For many people, this social platform is a way to share photos and videos, as well as a way to keep up with others. With that said, Instagram’s popularity, particularly with younger users, has made it an attractive outlet for digital marketing work. While much of our SEO support for clients is linked to website management and content creation, we are prepared to help you make better use of social media to promote your dental practice.

More SEO Trends To Help You Promote Your Practice In 2020
The internet tends to be the first place people look when they want to find a nearby business or service, which makes it hard to overstate the importance of having a website that is easy to both find and use.
