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?

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.

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

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.
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?

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.
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.
WhatsApp or a voice note. Tell me which part of this page matters most to you. I reply myself.
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.
Four practices, four kinds of work. Delivered, not promised.
See the projectsEvery page about implants rebuilt, down to the questions patients ask before deciding. Kept up month after month.
The page patients land on before they book, her Google advertising, and a weekly letter to the colleagues who refer to her.
Every question his patients ask, mapped, then written and linked from his own publications.
His whole site reviewed page by page, and the three-month plan, city by city.
For a given specialty. So we do not work with the practice on the second map above, and would not while working with you.
Then very little: the odd decision, and your clinical eye where it matters.
If you stop, you keep all of it. No minimum term.
Agreed in writing. Nobody honest can promise you a position on Google, and we will not.
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.
