SEO shark agencies and con artists rely on myths and legends, don't become a victim

In this section I'll take you through the common myths that surround Dental Practice SEO and debunk them including:

  • Blogging
  • Sitemap Submission
  • Keyword Tools
  • Link Building / Content Marketing

Yes, you have probably heard many say things like 'You have to blog', 'You need to have a Facebook page' or be on Twitter. You need to beg other websites for links.

No, none of that. These are SEO techniques which are not relevant to local businesses like dental practices but people tend to spurt them out when they don't really understand Search Engine Optimization and how it should apply to a Dental Practice which serves a particular geographical area.

This might involve ranking you in their top 10 for certain searches 'now and then' and measuring how well people react to you compared to those who are currently ranking. For searches carried out dozens of times a day they are able to gather this information and make a decision within a matter of days. For more occasional search phrases it takes longer.

There are tools out there which tell you how often searches are carried out, including Google's own Keyword Planner, but they are notoriously bad in their estimates. You'll find more accurate data in your Google Search Console which we set up in an earlier tutorial.

It costs but Google will tell you how well your website is being received by people (versus competitors) while at the same time giving Google the data it needs to make ranking decisions far faster. It works like this:
