If you want more new patients, you need to rank at the top of Google. Most people search online before choosing a dentist, so your practice must appear where patients are looking. Identity Dental Marketing, known by many as the Best Dental Marketing Agencyhelps practices achieve this through simple, effective strategies.


1. Start With a Fast, Clean Website

Google rewards websites that load quickly and are built with clean code. A well-built WordPress site makes it easier for Google to crawl, index, and rank your pages. After updates, always submit your site for reindexing in Google Search Console.


2. Optimize Your Google Business Profile (GBP)

Your Google Maps listing is one of the biggest ranking factors for dentists.

Key steps:

        
  •     

    Make sure your name, address, and phone number match everywhere

        
  •     
  •     

    Choose accurate business categories

        
  •     
  •     

    Add services, photos, and descriptions

        
  •     
  •     

    Use local schema markup so Google understands your practice

        

This helps you appear in the Local 3-Pack, where most patients click.


3. Add a Blog Feed With Fresh Content

Google loves active websites. Adding a blog feed to your homepage shows that your site is updated regularly.
Short, helpful topics like treatment tips, FAQs, or dental education articles can improve your visibility over time.


4. Optimize Your Images

Photos that are too large slow down your website. The Best Dental Marketing Agency always compresses images and adds keyword-rich alt text. This improves both user experience and rankings.


5. Use Schema and Microdata

Schema helps Google display rich results such as:

        
  •     

    Star ratings

        
  •     
  •     

    FAQs

        
  •     
  •     

    Business hours

        
  •     
  •     

    Services

        

These stand out in search results and increase clicks.


6. Grow Your Google Reviews

Reviews build trust and boost rankings. Ask satisfied patients to share their experience, respond to all reviews, and show them off on your website.


7. Keep Improving Your Domain Over Time

SEO is ongoing. Adding content, improving links, monitoring performance, and updating your site all help strengthen your domain authority and keep you competitive.
