FAQ

SEO questions, answered

How long until I'm on the first page?

Most clinics see real movement in three to six months, depending on the area and how many clinics nearby offer the same care.

Can you guarantee the top spot?

No one honestly can. We can promise steady, careful work and clear reports.

What's Google Business Profile?

It's your clinic's listing on Google Maps. For local searches, it's often the first thing patients see.

Can you help us get more Google reviews?

Yes. We make it easy for patients to leave a review on Google, with a simple link or QR code, and help you reply to them. We ask every patient the same way, never offer rewards for reviews, and don't post reviews on your website, because colleges and Google don't allow those. Replies never mention a patient's care.

Should I start with SEO or Google Ads?

Ads bring calls in now; SEO builds over months and then keeps working without a cost per click. Many clinics start with both, or start with ads while SEO builds.

Do I need a new website for SEO?

Not usually. We improve the site you have. If something is holding it back, we'll tell you plainly.
