Private visibility audit

Church Lane Dental Practice

Hi there, let’s look at your local visibility.

We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from 25 spots around Church Ln in Manchester. You come up first at your own door, and you were found in the list at all 25 spots. But at most of them you sit outside the first three, and further out you fall a long way down. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means the practice is in the top three there.

So at your door you are easy to find. A few streets out, you are still in the list, but well below the first three names shown. Who sits above you there?

The comparison worth looking at

One nearby practice comes before you at most spots

Across the same spots, UrgentCare Dental Manchester comes before you at most of them, and you come before it at the other nine. Counted spot by spot, it sits higher in the list more often than you do.

Same search, a dental clinic, from the same spots around you, so the two maps sit side by side.

Its name shows in the first three at clearly more of those spots than yours, which is the gap to close. The next question is who actually reaches 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

Both kinds of visitor reach your website

About a third of the estimated visits from Google come from people typing your name, like 'church lane dental practice'. A similar share comes from searches for a dentist nearby.

  • A search like 'moston dentist' names no practice, and your home page comes up among the first results for it. That is a real strength.
  • A name search means the person already had your name. A search for a dentist nearby does not, so those are the searches that can bring you someone new.

So which searches are bringing those new people in, and where do they land when they arrive?

The searches behind the numbers

Two searches bring in people who do not name you

Beyond your name, two searches lead people to you, and both are the same thing: someone looking for a dentist in the Moston area, without naming a practice.

  • Someone searching 'moston dentist' finds your site among the first results, and lands on your home page.
  • Someone searching 'dentist moston lane manchester' also shows up among the first results, again landing on your home page.

These are people wanting a dentist near them, which is exactly what you do, so that general dental search is worth building on. Both land on your home page, though. So what does a stranger actually find once they arrive?

Picture patients searching for your treatments in Manchester being able to find you.

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

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.

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?
