Private visibility audit

The Fold Dentistry

Hello, let’s look at your local visibility.

We ran the same search, Cosmetic dentist, from 25 spots around you in Manchester. The map shows you lower down close to you, then far down the list in most other spots. So this looks weak across most of the area tested. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means the practice is in the top three there.

That may mean someone searching from farther across Manchester may not come across you when they need a cosmetic dentist nearby.

The comparison worth looking at

One nearby practice shows up more widely

Compared side by side, Smile Stylist Dental Clinics shows up both close to you and further out in Manchester, so people searching nearby are more likely to see them.

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

That suggests a wider local presence is reachable for you in Manchester. The next question is whether your website is bringing in people who do not already know you.

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

Most people who find your website already know you

This estimate suggests most people who reach your website through Google were already looking for you, for example 'the fold dentistry'.

  • In practice, they had already heard of you, through a recommendation, by walking past, or because they are already a patient.
  • Someone nearby looking for a cosmetic dentist in Manchester without knowing your name makes a different search, and your pages sit too far down for most people to see.

That leads to the next question: which searches bring people to you without your name?

The searches behind the numbers

We found no new-patient searches bringing people

These are general dentist searches around Manchester, plus one search about a dental team. They lead to your home page or your Sale and Hale dentist page, not to cosmetic dentistry pages.

  • 'dentist sale' shows up beyond the first page of results, so most people never see it, and it leads to your Sale and Hale dentist page.
  • 'dentist fallowfield manchester' shows up beyond the first page of results, so most people never see it, and it leads to your home page.

The useful finding is the gap: none of the searches we found is about cosmetic dentistry, so someone looking for a cosmetic dentist in Manchester does not arrive this way yet.

Picture the patients searching for cosmetic dentistry in Manchester being able to find you.

There is real ground already won here, and a few gaps that are holding it back. Both are plain to see, and both can be worked on.

I ran clinics myself, so this is two colleagues reading the same page rather than a sales call. Each of these can be worked on one at a time.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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?
