Why Consider Local SEO?

Local SEO is important for Doctors and Practices and can:


  • Improved Google Authority by reinforcing consistent information about the practice,
  • Build search ranking by increasing off-site backlinks from high domain authority sites, 
  • Increase website trust score by consistent and accurate citations.


Local SEO for Doctors is an important element of a practice's SEO and Medical Marketing strategies.

About the Local SEO Program

Because thousands of patients use local directories to find services every hour, displaying complete and correct information is a baseline.


Local SEO for medical practices is crucial as it enhances a website's SEO and increases organic traffic, while also helping to attract valuable new patient engagement.


Local Listing

Most practices' listings are generic, auto-generated, incomplete or non-existent.

This can undermine your Google Rank and impact your online visibility.

Unified data positively impacts your Google Authority as the search algorithm values consistent and accurate data.


When building backlinks, it is essential to use the exact details across all linking sites.

The Local SEO Program is designed to ensure your practice's local listings use complete, accurate and up-to-date information to reinforce search engines' confidence.

The process includes the following stages

  • Editing or Claiming your practice citations,
  • Updating or Submitting your practice information,
  • Verifying and Linking  your practice's local listing


Online Reviews

The Local SEO Program also includes a Reputation Management service that helps practices:

  • Gain More Reviews, enhance your reputation, establish trust, and attract new patients.
  • Monitor & Manage Reviews, to stay on top of all your reviews, no matter where they are left, and
  • Showcase Reviews, to present your best reviews centre stage on your website.
