Vein Clinic Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
WHY IT MATTERS
of all traffic from the average Google search goes to results on page one, according to Chitika.
There’s a ton of misinformation out there about SEO. The truth is, search engines reward the same things your users value: correct information on a site that works well and is safe. To accomplish this, Google and other search engines weigh various factors such as the content of your site, the security protocols in place, its performance across mobile and tablet devices, and the accessibility of your site for users with disabilities.Â
What can you do to help your website rank higher?
- Make sure the technical elements of your site are working correctly - this includes your title tags, meta descriptions, and site security certificate
- Regularly add new content in the form of blogs and site content
- Build relevant, high-quality backlinks
- Optimize your on-page keywords and content
Local Vein Clinic Directory Listings
WHY IT MATTERS
of consumers who perform a local search ultimately visit a store within 5 miles of their current location.
Local search is incredibly important for vein clinic practices. Your prospective patients are searching for you locally. Managing your local directories and search listings makes sure they find you. This isn’t a one-and-done process – carefully monitoring your listings for inaccuracies is just as important as accurate coverage across platforms.Â
What’s important in a local listing? It’s known as NAP information and stands for Name, Address, and Phone number. These three listing elements are the key to making sure your listings don’t get your business penalized.Â
Managing every aspect of your local listings is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Local Power was created to make management easy by putting everything into one place.
Vein Clinic Reputation Management
WHY IT MATTERS
of consumers trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations.
Searchers looking for vein clinics use online reviews to help them decide who to trust. Can you blame them? Reviews offer a chance to see the results other patients have had with your practice, as well as how you handle negative reviews and customer service. Successfully managing your online reviews means successfully managing the reputation of your vein clinic practice.Â
Customers aren’t the only ones looking at your reviews. Search engines judge them too. Specifically, they’re looking at three things:
- The number of reviews
- The overall sentiment of the reviews
- Your responses to each review
Vein clinics have special concerns when it comes to reviews and HIPAA compliance. This, combined with the time-intensive nature of requesting and monitoring reviews across multiple platforms, is why we created Review Power.
WHY IT MATTERS
of consumers will follow a brand on social media to learn about new products or services.
Social media has become a staple of every practice and is now often embedded in an online user’s journey to becoming a patient. It can help instill trust and encourage connection on a more personal level. However, it’s easy to underestimate the amount of work required to run an engaging, successful social media presence that helps you stay top of mind with your current patients.
The key to doing social media successfully is planning, from the goals of your profiles to which content you’ll post. Social Power gives you a calendar view of all of your social media posts, while providing templates and designs for you to work with.
Vein Clinic Search Engine Marketing (SEM)
WHY IT MATTERS
of people say paid search ads make it easier to find the information they are seeking on a website or a search engine.
SEM is often referred to interchangeably as pay-per-click (or PPC for short) because you only pay when a user clicks on your ad and lands on your vein clinic website. What are you paying for exactly? The prime real estate at the top of search engine results pages. Because this is a paid strategy, having knowledge of budgeting, ad writing skills, and a solid website to convert the traffic you paid for is the key to success.
There’s a reason this strategy lives at the very top of our Pyramid of Success. If you’ve mastered every other piece of vein clinic marketing, this is a great strategy to grow your business even more. It’s also the most time-intensive.Â
SEM Power is the platform for you if you don’t want to manage it on your own.
Vein Clinic Blogging
Your vein clinic website needs a blog. Regular blog posts can drive traffic and potential patients to your site, provide regular content to link to on your social media pages and in your email messages and are important for SEO for your site. The bots that continually crawl your site view blogs as new content, and new content helps your site rank higher in organic search.
These blogs should be informational in tone, providing value to both current and potential patients. Posting needs to be consistent, usually one post each month. What should your blogs say? Each post should focus on a single treatment or procedure performed at your vein clinic. This information can help position your clinic as the vascular expert in the area. For instance, a blog post could detail your new VeinGogh treatment for spider veins.
Generating blogs can be difficult for clinics like yours — you’re a vascular specialist, not a writer. Many practices farm out these duties to freelance writers, or your digital agency should provide this content. By doing so, you ensure your blogging is consistent, and the quality is high. Plus, if you have a topic you want to add, you can still do so.
