Private visibility audit

Dr Aditya Dubagunta

Dr Dubagunta, let’s look at your local visibility.

We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from 25 spots around Blackhill in Consett. You appear on the first screen in many spots and first at the centre, but below the top three in most of the area. Each dot is one of those spots. Green means you are in the top three there.

Away from the centre, someone searching nearby may not come across you, while your stronger patch close to you is worth protecting. So who else is showing up around you?

The comparison worth looking at

One nearby practice shows up more widely

Shotley Bridge Dental Care appears ahead across more of the area around Blackhill in Consett, so people further out are more likely to see them before you.

We ran the same search from the same spots around Blackhill in Consett, so these two maps can be read side by side.

So the wider area around Blackhill in Consett is being covered by someone, just not by you. The next question is what happens when someone taps through to a website.

Each dot is a tested search location. Green means a top-three position for that search. The comparison concerns search visibility, not the quality of care.

Beyond the map

People are not yet searching for you by name

In this estimate, we found people reaching your site through Google, but none of the searches we found used your practice name.

  • That means people who already know you may still search other ways, rather than typing your practice name straight into Google.
  • It also means no one is arriving because they were told your name and looked you up.

So which searches are bringing those people to you without the name?

The searches behind the numbers

No dentist search we found brings new people

These searches are about general dental care in Consett, plus one search that is simply another practice's name.

  • 'rosebrough dental practice' shows up among the first results and leads to your home page, but that is someone looking for another practice, not for you.
  • 'consett dentist' shows up low on the first page and leads to your home page. It is seen by few people and brings almost no one.

The clear gap is this: someone looking for a dentist around Blackhill in Consett does not arrive through these searches yet. So which dentistry page should start doing that job for you?

Picture the patients searching for a dentist in Consett being able to find you.

Here is what already works well for you, and what we would put right first.

None of this is about your care. It is about who sees your name first.

You stay with your patients. We carry this part.

Patients choose before they call: from the first names on the map, from the first results on Google. My team rebuilds what decides that, your Google listing and the pages a patient lands on, and keeps it up every month. Here is what happens if you reply.

1
Start here

You send a message

WhatsApp or a voice note. Tell me which part of this page matters most to you. I reply myself.

2

About an hour together

We agree the priorities and what Forge will deliver, in writing. It is the only real time this asks of you.

3

Foundations first

Your Google listing and the pages a new patient lands on. Fixed before anything is built on top.

4

Systems that keep running

Kept up month after month. You watch it in a shared table, with a regular call, and your own people kept in the loop.

Work we have already done

Not a promise. The work itself.

Four practices, four kinds of work. Delivered, not promised.

A doctor who ran clinics, doing this part for you

I'm a doctor. I used to run a group of clinics, and I know this part of the job is not why anyone chooses medicine. Today my team does it for practices like yours: the research, the writing and the set-up. You come in only where clinical knowledge matters.

A message or a voice note is enough

Got a question?

A few things you may be wondering

The questions practitioners actually ask me after a page like this.

What would you do first for my practice?

We already have a website, an agency or someone who watches this. Do we start again?

Will this bring the right patients, or just more enquiries?

I searched myself and saw something different. Why?

What does it cost, and how long before something changes?

Do you work with the practice you compared me with?
