Local SEO Basics
Local search is where many patients start. Claim and complete your Google Business Profile, choose accurate categories and keep hours, services and contact details current. Make sure the same name, address and phone number appear on your website and in directories.
Structured Data
Structured data is code that labels the facts on your page so machines read them correctly. For a clinic it can describe the business, its address and hours and the questions answered on the page. Your web developer can add it using schema.org types such as a local or medical business.

Frequently Asked Questions

- There is no fixed number. Steady, recent and genuine reviews matter more than a one-off burst.
- Can we answer reviews?
- Yes, politely. Do not confirm or discuss a patient's health information in public replies.
