Healthcare SEO FAQ

What is YMYL and why does it matter for healthcare SEO?
YMYL (Your Money Your Life) is Google's classification for content that could impact a person's health or finances. Healthcare websites face stricter quality standards. We ensure all content demonstrates medical expertise and follows E-E-A-T guidelines to avoid ranking penalties.
Can you help with dental clinic SEO specifically?
Yes. Dental SEO is one of our strongest specialties. We optimize for procedure-specific searches ('teeth whitening Nairobi,' 'dental implants Kenya'), build review profiles, and ensure your clinic dominates local dental searches.
How do you handle patient privacy in SEO?
We never use patient information without consent. Testimonials are anonymized unless explicit permission is granted. All our strategies comply with healthcare privacy standards and Kenya's Data Protection Act.
How long before we see more patients from Google?
Healthcare SEO typically shows local results within 2-3 months. Competitive specialty keywords (like 'best hospital in Kenya') may take 6-9 months. Most practices see a meaningful increase in appointment requests by month 4.
Do you work with hospitals or just small clinics?
Both. We work with major hospitals, specialist clinics, dental practices, pharmacies, and mental health professionals. Our approach scales from single-practitioner clinics to multi-location hospital networks.
