Challenge

Win trust and rankings against entrenched competitors

The practice was competing against clinics with 200–600+ reviews and years of local SEO momentum but had minimal visibility for high-value treatments.

Technical gaps (no robots.txt, duplicate meta, broken links), thin service pages, and a seven-field booking form suppressed rankings and conversions.

We needed to fix crawlability, build authority quickly, and make it effortless to book on mobile—all within a six-month window.

Approach

Technical foundation

Cleared 38+ blocking issues so Google could crawl, index, and evaluate the site cleanly.

  • HTTPS/redirect clean-up, robots.txt, XML sitemap, canonical tags.
  • Fixed broken internal links and duplicate meta patterns.
  • Structured data for organisation, services, and FAQs.

Depth-over-thin content

Rebuilt every treatment page with intent-based copy, FAQs, and before/after proof to outrank templated competitors.

  • 1,000+ word guides for implants, Invisalign, veneers, emergency care.
  • Location modifiers for surrounding towns to capture near-me searches.
  • Clear CTAs, trust markers, and scan-friendly layouts for mobile.

Local SEO domination

Optimised Google Business Profile and citations to push into the map pack for priority services.

  • 25+ GBP service attributes and weekly update cadence.
  • Consistent NAP across 30+ directories and local schema markup.
  • Automated review acquisition that lifted average rating and volume.

Conversion optimisation

Reduced booking friction and highlighted social proof to turn traffic into appointments.

  • Form fields cut from 7 to 3 with click-to-call on mobile.
  • Sticky booking CTA and reassurance copy near pricing sections.
  • Embedded review widgets and clinician credentials across key pages.
