Private visibility audit

Mr Maximillian “Max” Mifsud

Mr Mifsud, let’s look at your local visibility.

We ran the same search, an orthopedic surgeon, from 25 spots around Headington in Oxford. You show on the first screen in many spots, but you drop below the top three in most. So people nearby can see you, though not usually among the first few. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means you are in the top three there.

That means someone searching nearby may not see you in the first few, which raises a simple question: what happens when one nearby practice is checked the same way?

The comparison worth looking at

One nearby practice shows up more widely

Against Oxford Shoulder Surgeon, you appear less often both close to your address and further out around Headington in Oxford, so patients nearby are more likely to see them first.

This is the same search, made from the same spots around your practice, so the two maps can be read side by side.

So being seen across those same spots is possible for you too. The next question is who is actually reaching your website now.

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, none of the searches we found used your practice name to reach your website through Google.

  • That means this audit has not yet found name searches bringing people to your site, so the next question is which other searches are doing the work.

So which searches bring people to you without your name?

The searches behind the numbers

New visitors are not reaching you yet

These are searches about hip dysplasia and DDH, leading to your page on that service rather than to your practice name.

  • 'ddh medical abbreviation' shows up beyond the first page of results, so most people never see it, and it leads to your page about hip dysplasia and DDH.
  • 'ddh hip dysplasia' is also beyond the first page, where most people never look, and it leads to the same page.

So the searches we found are in your own paediatric orthopaedic field, but none is yet bringing new people around Headington in Oxford to that page.

Picture the parents searching for hip surgery in Oxford being able to find you.

Here is what already works 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 plastic surgeon in Italy

His whole site reviewed page by page, and the three-month plan, city by city.

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

WhatsApp or voice note: +33 7 43 69 81 74. Tell me which part of this page you want to understand better. I reply myself. This page was made for your practice only, and it comes down 32 days after it was published.

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?
