Private visibility audit

Jiten Doshi

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

We ran the same search, Dental clinic, from 25 spots around Argyle St in Bath. You come up first right by your practice. Beyond that, you are far down the list in most spots, especially to the west and northwest. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means the practice is in the top three there.

A person searching from those weaker areas may not come across you, while your immediate area is worth protecting. So what does a stronger nearby practice manage to show?

The comparison worth looking at

One nearby practice shows up more widely

In the same search, Bath Dental Excellence Dental & Implant Clinic appears ahead both close to you around Argyle St in Bath and further out.

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

That suggests a wider local presence is reachable around Argyle St in Bath. The next question is who is actually reaching your 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

From what we could estimate, Google is not yet bringing you people who search for your name. We did find broader searches such as 'orthodontist bath'.

  • That means patients who already know you may still reach you another way first, like a recommendation, walking past, or being an existing patient.
  • When someone nearby searches for a dental clinic around Argyle St in Bath without knowing your name, your website is not yet how they find you.

So which searches bring people to you without your name, and where do they land?

The searches behind the numbers

New people rarely reach you by search

These are searches for dentistry and orthodontic treatment around Argyle St in Bath, from people who do not already know your practice by name.

  • When someone searches 'orthodontist bath', you show up low on the first page, so few people see you and it brings almost no one to your orthodontic treatment page.
  • When someone searches 'bath dentist', you are beyond the first page of results, so most people never see your home page from that search.

The clearest gap is general dentistry. Someone looking for a dentist around Argyle St in Bath does not arrive this way yet.

Picture the patients searching for dental treatment in Bath being able to find you.

Here is what already works for you, and where we would start 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.

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

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?
