SEO, or search engine optimization, is one of the most important tools required in order to build a successful blog or website today.
Optimizing a website for search engines offers a variety of benefits that help to boost online visibility while ultimately increasing the number of page views and visitors you receive each day.
Implementing a few SEO tips when working in the healthcare industry can help to keep medical practices in the game and competing online for visitors and visibility.
Research Trending Topics and Keywords in Your Healthcare Niche
Research the latest trending topics and most relevant keywords in your niche using tools such as Google Trends and Google Analytics.
Post content and share updates using trending words and phrases to help boost your website’s SEO while also attracting the right audience and demographic.
Choose Appropriate Page Titles and Headers
Always use proper grammar and punctuation when crafting new page and post titles for your website. Avoid using hyphens whenever possible.
- Create titles based on the most significant topic covered in each piece you share.
- Research the keywords you want to use in your title to compare popularity and the current trend of the search.
Optimize each of your post’s titles each time you create and update.
Share Links to Other Content of Yours in Your Posts
Sharing links to other posts you have on your website or blog with each new update is a way to boost SEO. It also increases page views from visitors who are actively browsing.
Including links to other content on your site with each new post is a quick way to create a sitemap. A sitemap helps search engine bots to virtually “crawl” your website much easier and in less time.
Use a CMS That Support SEO Plugins
Use a content management system (CMS) such as WordPress that allows you to install SEO-related plugins.
With the right SEO plugins and a CMS such as WordPress, always guarantee that each piece of content you publish is fully optimized for all search engines.
- Implement tags, meta tags, and other keywords for each page
- Use your choice of SEO plugins and CMS
If you are unsure of how to go about implementing CMS such as WordPress and want an optimized healthcare website, consider hiring a professional web design company.
Using an advanced CMS is highly recommended for optimal tools to manage and improve SEO and content management.
Allow Guests to Contribute Their Posts to Your Website
Allow other medical practitioners and professionals to contribute guest posts to your blog. They are likely to share a link to your website using their social media profiles or official websites and blogs, boosting your SEO.
The more interaction you gain from other websites, the higher up your website will appear within the first pages of search results.
Guest Blog on Another Site
Connect with other medical professionals in your field to inquire about guest-blogging on their websites or social media pages. In exchange, offer them a spot on your blog or within the next update you publish on social media.
When you share your posts on other professional pages or websites, you increase your credibility while building a positive, professional relationship for yourself in the medical field online.
The more your website’s link and optimized headlines appear on other websites, the better your search engine ranking.
Create and Link Your Social Media Accounts
Creating social media accounts is necessary for most professionals and companies to survive and thrive today.
Having a social media page specifically for your medical practice or its blog is a way to connect with potential patients. Social media also boosts your website’s SEO with each update you share.
Updating social media pages consistently is key to generating more followers while keeping loyal users genuinely interested in what you have to say.
- Cross-post your updates using multiple social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter.
- Choose the top keywords in your medical niche to grab the attention of new potential followers.
Create a posting schedule to prevent your followers from becoming bored or disinterested in your content.
Share Relevant and Engaging Updates on Social Media Using Relevant Keywords
Share relevant and engaging updates in your field of medicine on social media. Be sure to use relevant keywords in the title of the post you link.
Also include your selected keyword in the update you share on social media itself. This link explains how to choose keywords.
Social media is a great tool to quickly boost your website’s overall search engine optimization organically.
The more optimized your website and online presence is, the easier it becomes to reach potential patients and clients in any field or industry.
Implementing the right SEO tips and tricks can help you to quickly boost your medical practice’s overall ranking in both local and international search results across top engines today such as Google, Yahoo!, and Bing.

Is building links through commenting dead in 2018? Also what about building backlinks through social bookmarking and directory submission?
Most comments are nofollow by default, so those at least probably aren’t very beneficial. But some still do commenting so they must believe it helps.
