Why Your Hospital Needs SEO

When was the last time you tried a new restaurant? Or needed to find a mechanic? Or booked a hotel in a city you’ve never visited before? How did you decide where to go? Did you just roll the dice and hope for the best? Probably not. Instead, you likely searched Google and compared options.

The same is true for patients looking for a hospital. Whether the patient needs urgent care at an Emergency Room, or is researching some kind of longer-term treatment or surgery, patients need to be able to find information about your hospital online.

This is why your hospital needs SEO as part of its marketing strategy.

Get Google’s Seal of Approval

Just like any brand or business, your online presence plays a huge role in how you are perceived by potential patients. Statistically, a vast majority of people click on the top few results of a Google search, with that number dropping off quickly on page one and almost nobody making it to page two of results.

By not investing in your hospital’s SEO efforts, not only will your ranking in Google searches suffer but so will your bottom line. If you are not utilizing SEO strategies to make sure potential new patients know about the services, specialties, and treatments offered by your hospital, then you are leaving money on the table for someone else to grab who does.

In reality, it does not matter how great a specific service or area of care is at your hospital if someone researching that information cannot find it. People tend to see ranking well in Google as a seal of approval, and in order to attract patients to choose your hospital, you need to use SEO to get that seal of approval for yourself.

See a Specialist

You are likely wondering how to actually do this, though. Fortunately, you don’t have to do this on your own. After all, you would seek out the expertise of a doctor for your medical needs, so why not go to an expert to diagnose and treat your SEO needs.
