The Importance of Local SEO for Dentists and Orthodontists

Local SEO improves search visibility and brand awareness for local dental or orthodontics practices.

Search Engine Optimization is the process of affecting the visibility of a website or a web page in a search engine’s unpaid results—often referred to as “natural,” “organic,” or “earned” results. Generally, the earlier (or higher ranked on the search results page) and more frequently a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine’s users.
