In the dynamic dental marketing space, the utilisation of keyword-based domains often emerges as a topic of significant intrigue. This strategy involves embedding specific words or phrases within a website's address, closely aligned with the services rendered, aiming to optimise online visibility. But how does this tactic fare in today's densely populated internet landscape?
Navigating the intricate world of dental SEO can be daunting, especially when aiming to strike the perfect balance between patient-centric services and online visibility. At 360 Dental Marketing, we've dedicated years to mastering this craft, ensuring the dental practices we work with shine whilst also adhering to industry guidelines. So, let’s address a common query we often encounter: Does incorporating a keyword in the domain significantly impact SEO?
A keyword-based domain is a website address that incorporates specific words or phrases related to the services offered. For instance, a dental practice in Hawthorn aiming to target dental implants could utilise a domain like dentalimplantshawthorn.com.au, and a broader approach might lead to a domain such as dentalveneers.com.au. But does this approach still hold weight in the current digital landscape?
SEO, or Search Engine Optimisation, is a fundamental digital marketing strategy aimed at enhancing a website’s visibility on search engines like Google. SEO works by optimising a website’s content relevance, keyword usage, content, images and more to improve the site’s ranking on search engines such as google. By moving the website up the rankings it increases visibility and as a result can lead to more organic traffic, more leads and more conversions.
For dentists, SEO is particularly crucial. Dental SEO involves creating strategies that are specific for dental practices such as high search volume keywords related to dentistry, including “dental implants” or “teeth whitening”, and combining them with local SEO keywords so dentists can effectively reach their target audience in their specific location. This ultimately helps to finetune who your website reaches and thereby works to get your website standing out.
In the early days of the internet, the digital marketing space was nowhere near as populated as it is now and this meant getting your website to the top of search engine rankings was relatively straightforward, certainly easier than it is now. Simply by using keywords over and over again it could easily propel a webpage to the top of search results. However, as SEO strategists refined their techniques, platforms like Google evolved to prioritise relevant and credible content, bringing single-page or keyword-stuffed websites down the rankings.
Incorporating keywords in the domain can still be advantageous, but with a caveat. It's beneficial if you’re building a primary website around it, integrating keyword-included brand name combinations – think suburb name + dental/dentists. However, if the domain isn’t hosting a full-scale website, resources are better channelled towards ranking the primary domain.
At 360 Dental Marketing, we adopt a holistic strategy, intertwining high search volume keywords, local SEO for dentists, and captivating website design. Our focus is on the patient’s journey, transforming clicks into conversions, and ensuring your practice stands out. After all, it’s the authenticity and relevance that separate the ‘window shoppers’ from the appointment-makers.
