Local Dental Searches Turn into Appointments
When people search for a dentist, they are ready to book an appointment. Searches like “dentist near me”, “emergency dentist today”, or “private dentist in [area]” show clear and immediate intent. If your practice does not appear in Google Maps and local search results, those patients choose another dentist.

What our clients say
We needed revenue, not just traffic. Their localfirst strategy wins Maps, and Ads convert. The monthly numbers are crystal clear and keep momentum high.
Our pubs now dominate for local searches and new customers find us daily. The rollout across venues was coordinated and fast—exactly what we needed.
They focus on “near me” demand and show the numbers that matter. Reports are concise and tied to bookings—our direct revenue is up and traffic finally pays its way.
Our Approach
-
We capture high-intent local searches across Google Maps, mobile search and “near me” results. Every call, booking and enquiry is tracked so you can see real patient growth, not estimates.
-
We grow visibility for non-brand searches like “emergency dentist”, “private dentist” or “teeth whitening in [area]”. This builds consistent demand over time while reducing cost per acquisition.
-
We provide clear and accurate reporting using GA4, call tracking and booking data. You see cost per booking, revenue impact and the exact actions being taken next. Nothing is hidden.
FAQs about Local SEO for Hospitality
Can you track calls and bookings from dental ads?
Yes. We track phone calls, form enquiries and booking actions using GA4, call tracking and Google Ads. You see which campaigns generate real patient enquiries.
What kind of CPA or ROAS should dental practices expect?
The average return ranges between eight and twelve times within ninety days. Many clinics see stronger results as campaigns mature and data improve.
Do you separate emergency, private and NHS searches?
Yes. Emergency dentist, private treatments and general dentistry are segmented to control spend and focus on higher-value patient acquisition.
Do you use Performance Max for dental practices?
Performance Max is used where it helps capture Maps and local demand. Search campaigns are used for specific high-intent dental treatments.
How do you prevent wasted spend on low-intent searches?
We use strict location targeting, service-based keywords and ongoing negative keyword management to remove irrelevant traffic.
What is included in your Local SEO setup for dentists?
We optimise your Google Business Profile, dental services and categories. Local schema is added, citations are cleaned, and service and location pages are created.
How long does Local SEO take for dental practices?
Most practices see early improvements within 30–90 days. Competitive areas may take longer, but results build steadily over time.
What is postcode or coverage tracking?
Coverage tracking shows how your practice ranks across surrounding postcodes. This highlights growth opportunities beyond your immediate location.
Do you create local content?
Yes. We create service and location pages, educational posts, and dental updates tailored to your area to increase relevance and attract nearby patients.
Can you support multi-location dental groups?
Yes. Multi-location SEO is a core part of our work. We build scalable structures and reporting by practice and region.
Do reviews impact dental rankings and bookings?
Yes. Reviews strongly influence Maps visibility and patient trust. We help improve review volume and response quality.
What do you need to start?
We need access to your Google Business Profile and GA4. If Google Ads are running, access helps us review performance. We also confirm services and target areas.
Do we need a meeting?
No. Clear reporting reduces the need for regular calls. We schedule discussions only when useful.
What do you report on?
We report on calls, enquiries, bookings and leads. Where advertising is involved, we also report on CPA and return by treatment or location.
How long are contracts?
No. Contract length depends on scope. We prioritise flexibility and performance over lock-ins.
