SEO for DentistsSEO for dentists who want more new patients from Google. We help UK dental practices rank in Google Maps and local search, and we design dental websites that make booking an appointment easy.
SEO for dentists is the work that puts a dental practice in front of people searching for a dentist nearby, whether they need an emergency appointment tonight, want to register with a new practice, or are researching implants or Invisalign.
Dental search is local and competitive. Most patients choose from the three practices Google Maps shows first, and higher-value private treatments attract competition from practices well beyond the town centre.
We are a Manchester SEO and web development team. We track Google Maps rankings with our own GeoGrid scanner and build fast websites, so a practice gets both the visibility and the website that turns visits into bookings.
Categories, treatments, opening hours, photos and booking links set up correctly.
Your Maps ranking checked across the area your patients come from.
Clear pages for implants, Invisalign, whitening, emergency care and other treatments you offer.
Fast, mobile-first websites that make it simple to call or book online.
Booking buttons and links to the booking system your practice already uses.
A compliant process for inviting genuine patient reviews and responding to them.
Speed, structured data, indexing and accessibility on your practice website.
Calls, booking clicks and enquiries tracked each month, not just rankings.
Which treatments you want more of, where patients come from and who you compete with.
Your Maps visibility scanned for searches such as "dentist near me" and key treatments.
Business Profile, website speed, technical issues and practice details.
Helpful, accurate pages for the treatments that matter most to the practice.
A steady flow of genuine patient reviews.
Monthly reports on visibility, calls and booking requests.
Health content must be accurate and trustworthy. Google holds health-related pages to a high standard, and patients do too. Treatment pages should be clear about what a treatment involves, who it suits and what to expect, and should be reviewed by a registered dental professional at the practice.
Advertising rules still apply online. Dental websites in the UK must follow the General Dental Council's guidance on ethical advertising and the Advertising Standards Authority's rules. That means no misleading claims, clear information about who provides treatment, and care with before-and-after images and testimonials.
Private treatments need their own strategy. Searches for implants, Invisalign and cosmetic dentistry are worth far more to a practice than general searches, and patients research them for longer. Detailed, honest treatment pages and FAQs help a practice rank and win those patients.
The website has to make booking easy. Most dental searches happen on phones. A slow site, a hidden phone number or a complicated booking process sends patients back to Google and on to the next practice.
