New Google Mobile Search Index


Posted on 10/26/2016 by Wendy Hensley, Marketing Manager
Google Mobile Search IndexGoogle has again announced a shift in their indexing and it has everyone stepping up their mobile game a bit.

Although Google had announced some time ago that they were going to use different algorithms to deliver results for mobile vs desktop users, Google has had one index for those searches regardless of the user platform. The index is the catalog of websites and pages that Google finds and delivers in their results.

Last week Google announced that they'd be separating these search indexes and the desktop index won't be updated as often as the mobile version. This change is in line with Googles shift to focus strongly on mobile users and search results.

What does this mean for your dental website?


Google is essentially saying that mobile search is more important than desktop search and that's a theory you should adopt for your website as well.
If you don't already have a mobile friendly site, it's time to make that happen for your practice. If you want to receive relevant search traffic in any capacity, you must update your site and make it accessible on mobile devices. Not doing this immediately means your site will lose valuable traffic and therefore potential patients.

Keep in mind that having a mobile friendly site is about more than just having a responsive site.

You need to also make sure that your content loads quickly and effectively on that device. Be sure you’re testing your content, optimizing your images and video, and viewing your site on various mobile platforms to ensure it's viewable.

Google also offers several tests that you can run for free on your site.
Check out this page load test or this mobile friendly test.

Along with the basics, we also offer a wide-variety of additional marketing services. Some of these services include:
• 

Credit Card Processing:

We have partnered with an online credit card processing company to help your patients pay through your website. Our partnership also helps you save money with lower rates and transaction fees.
• 

Dental Practice Photography:

Custom photography can help potential patients feel connected to your practice before their first appointment. If you need an experienced photographer to update your online photos, our team is here to help!
• 

Patient Education Videos:

What's the best way to make sure a patient follows through on treatment recommendations? Make sure they have the information they need to understand the benefits of dental treatments offered by your practice.
• 

Direct Mail Campaigns:

Believe it or not, direct mail campaigns are still a powerful promotional tool, especially for people that have just moved to your area. If you want to target this demographic, we can design a custom campaign tailored to your office and brand.
• 

Email Based Newsletter for Patients:

An electronic newsletter is one of the best ways to stay in touch with your current patients. We want to avoid the old adage, “out of sight, out of mind.” Staying visible with a newsletter can lead to more scheduled appointments and better patient loyalty.
• 

Email Hosting:

We offer email hosting to ensure your business email matches your website domain. A matching domain and email address is much more professional that using Yahoo, Gmail, or Hotmail.
• 

Facebook Ads:

Due to Facebook’s popularity, paid ads can be a fruitful way to generate new patients leads. Facebook ads are also unique in that they allow us to target your key demographic (with laser focus) based on age, gender, geographic location, relationship status, “likes,” education, job title, and other aspects.
• 

Logo, Design, and Branding Services:

Your logo and brand may be more important than you think. Talk with our design team to learn more about your possible options, whether you need a new logo or want to update an existing one.
• 

Online Bill Pay:

Much like our credit card processing, online bill pay makes it easier for your patients to pay for their treatments, especially if they need a payment program. We use the latest software and security measures to ensure a seamless billing process.
• 

Patient Forms (Fillable PDF):

A fillable PDF makes it easier for your patient to complete their paperwork before their first visit. This reduces your set-up time, allowing you to see more patients throughout the day.
• 

Patient Forms (Secure Online):

Secure online forms cut paperwork out altogether, meaning your staff will not have to waste time transferring the data to your computer system. It is also a more environmentally-friendly option, a nice selling point for patients that want to keep it green!
