Blogging for Dentists – Page One Google Ranking In Minutes

How can a blog achieve prominent search ranking in minutes?

The clear benefits of a dental blog have already been discussed at length. It’s accepted that a blog is essential not just to provide dental practice patients with news updates, offers etc but also to support the main website pages as part of a thorough dental SEO campaign. But just how effective can a blog be to help achieve prominent rankings quickly? The results are quite surprising….

Take a look at the following clip taken  from page one of Google. Right at the top just under the paid ads is an entry for a blog post made on an active dental blog managed by Dental Media for one of their clients. This is a blog post made about a popular, up-coming dental implant technique and written in such a way that it is targeted for a specific location – in this case Basildon in Essex.

So, in itself, a great result to get a blog post to the top Google position for a prominent dental treatment term. However, here’s the really interesting part – the red arrow is indicating the time that Google took to find and rank that particular post; just 20 seconds. Really, a position one ranking on Google in just 20 seconds!

Several weeks after this blog was posted, it still ranks at position one for the search term – so an excellent position in seconds and also sustainable.

How are we achieving this?

First off, it is important to understand that you will not achieve this level of success with a brand new blog – this is a detail that other dental marketing companies are less than transparent about. Like a website, a blog has to gain some level of authority and relevance in the eyes of Google – this can take several posts and a couple of months to achieve but once you’ve achieved it, the power of an authoritative blog is huge!

Similar posts in this and in other blogs that we manage, all rank quickly and prominently for various dental treatment terms for many locations. It’s quite easy to see how consistent dental blogging of this nature can help you gain prominence in Google not only for your main location but for several other areas adjacent to you. Overall traffic increases we have seen from applying this technique are significant.
