How Llanishen Dental Centre Achieved Page 1 Rankings and 86% More Patient Inquiries
Introduction
Llanishen Dental Centre faced a common challenge: they were completely absent from local search results. When potential patients searched "dentist Llanishen" or "dental practice near me," competing practices appeared while Llanishen remained invisible.
They needed a modern website and comprehensive SEO strategy to compete effectively.
Our approach
Digital foundation
We rebuilt their digital foundation with a focus on local search visibility and patient conversion.
Website development
We designed and built a new mobile-optimized website, with fast load times, easy navigation and relevant content. Our focus was on conversation, using prominent booking CTAs and easy to use, accessible contact forms.
Local SEO Implementation
We improved the website to rank for local searches like "dentist Llanishen" and "emergency dentist Cardiff," made it faster and mobile-friendly, and set up their Google Business Profile to attract more patients through reviews and regular updates.

Patient inquiries
In detail
The 86% increase in inquiries translates to approximately 15-20 additional patient contacts monthly - all from organic search with no ongoing advertising costs.
Why it worked
Local keywords
We focused on searches that indicate immediate need ("dentist near me," "emergency dentist") rather than broad informational queries. This meant traffic translated directly to appointment bookings.
Mobile-first design
With 75% of dental searches occurring on mobile devices, we built for mobile performance first.
Google optimized
We actively managed the Google profile listing, posting updates and encouraging reviews. An active Google profile ranks better.
Helpful content
Rather than keyword-stuffed pages, we developed service descriptions that actually answer patient questions: what treatments involve, why they're recommended, typical costs. This builds trust and improves rankings.
Technical SEO
Many dental websites have invisible technical problems that hurt rankings. We addressed site speed, mobile responsiveness, broken links, and indexing issues that were preventing Google from properly ranking the site.

ROI
In detail
The investment pays for itself with 2-3 new patients. The practice now generates 15-20+ monthly inquiries from organic search - a sustainable patient acquisition channel that continues delivering without additional ad spend.
