How Doctor Bios Location Pages Boost Website SEO
  • Does your website have everything it needs to
    achieve high rankings in Google searches? Does it
    set you apart from competitors, increase website
    visits, and deliver helpful insights about your
    services to your local community? Does it include
    doctor bios and location pages?
  • Higher Google search rankings give you and your
    practice the
  • opportunity to be found by more potential new
    patients. You can enhance your ranking in
    countless ways, including site speed, mobile
    optimization, strong blog content, and service
    pages. Another way you can improve your ranking
    is by creating provider bio pages and location
    pages.
  • In this article, well explore what bio and
    location pages are, what to include, and how
    adding them can boost your SEO and benefit your
    practice. Youll learn why these pages are so
    important to your SEO strategy, and how you can
    create effective bio or location pages for your
    medical website.
  • How To Create An Effective Doctor Bio Page
  • Your doctor bio introduces you to your patients.
    It answers their most common questions about you
    as a prospective care provider. It should also
    share your philosophy of patient care and
    distinguish you from other doctors in your area.
    With that in mind, here are the basic elements
    you should include in each bio
  • An up-to-date, professional headshot
  • An overview of your educational background,
    credentials, and qualifications
  • Your medical specialties and areas of expertise
  • Humanizing details about your personal hobbies
    and interests
  • The location(s) where you practice

  • The languages you speak
  • Write your doctor bio in the third person, and
    include specific details that set you apart from
    other providers in your area.
  • Your bio content should help create additional
    references to the services you provide and where
    you provide them. This information tells search
    engines and prospective patients that you are a
    viable option for anyone looking for quality care
    in your local community.
  • If you want to level up your bio page, consider
    adding video
  • content and a few of your best online reviews.
    Video content brings you to life for prospective
    patients. By recording a brief video message
    about your patient care philosophy or a unique
    feature of your practice, youll add the human
    element to your bio. Youll also add more comfort
    and confidence to the patient experience. Theyll
    feel like theyve gotten to know you before their
    first visit.
  • By adding videos to your bio pages, youll reach
    those people who dont or wont read your website
    content. By combining both written and video
    content in your bio, youll better satisfy
    different visitor preferences and keep visitors
    on your page longer.
  • Feature Your Best Online Reviews
  • Build credibility by adding your best reviews to
    your bio page. Your visitors will gain a better
    sense of how others view the care they received
    from you. You can share your average star rating,
    your total number of reviews, and a sampling of
    those reviews. This shows prospects that you are
    a credible provider with positive support from
    your current and past patients.
  • Patient reviews are critical for your reputation
    management strategy and enhancing your online
    presence. If you dont have any

online reviews, you should begin building your
online reputation by

  • soliciting reviews from current and past
    patients, especially those who have commented
    favorably about your services. The best time to
    ask for a review is when the patient in is your
    office.
  • By creating a separate page for each physician at
    your practice, you can optimize their services.
    For example, Dr. Jones may be an excellent
    retinal surgeon, while Dr. Smith excels in
    refractive surgery. Highlighting them separately
    will give you better, more relevant SEO ranking
    results.
  • How to Create Effective Location Pages
  • Your location pages should feature each office
    thats affiliated with your practice. Separate
    location pages help prospects find you when
    theyre searching for specific services in your
    area.
  • For example, a prospect might use search terms
    such as retinal surgeon in Burlington or
    refractive surgeon in Jonestown. If you have
    offices in both locations, youll gain higher
    rankings for those search terms.
  • In addition to having separate pages, you can
    strengthen them for users and SEO results. You
    can optimize your practice location pages by
    including
  • Your practice name, address, and phone number
  • Individual office hours of operation
  • A Google My Business map for each location
  • Listing medical specialties/services at each
    location
  • Listing doctors who practice at each location
  • These elements are critical for patient
    prospects. They also help search engines align
    your practice information with the information in
    online directories like Google, Yelp, Yellow
    Pages, and Healthgrades. Your location pages
    become tools for improving your local SEO. They
    also tell prospects which of your providers work
    at the locations nearest to

where they live.

Your Web Content Should Detail Services at Each
location Informative content is critical for
enhancing rankings and driving better search
engine results. Include each treatment option and
service available at each location. This provides
patients with information about booking
appointments and provides relevant content for
search engines to crawl and index. Even if your
prospects dont read all the content, adding it
to your location page tells Google and other
search engines how your services and providers
connect to specific locations. Creating
well-optimized bio pages and location pages can
have a huge positive impact on your overall SEO
rankings. When you create robust location pages
and doctor bio pages on your medical website, you
will drive higher-ranking results and deliver
more helpful information for your prospects. The
result? More website visitors and appointment
requests to build your practice. Learn more
