How a Miami Dental Practice Went From Page 5 to Position 2 in 6 Months

This practice had been serving Miami families for over a decade and had excellent reviews, but almost none of that translated online. For their most important search, "family dentist Miami," they sat on page 5, where essentially no one ever looked. New patients were finding competitors instead, even competitors with weaker reputations.

Miami is one of the most competitive dental markets in the country. Several large groups dominated the first page, and the practice had tried a previous SEO provider that delivered confusing reports and no real movement. They were skeptical that SEO could work for them at all.

Within three months the practice had climbed from page 5 into the top of page 2, and by month six they held position 2 for "family dentist Miami," sitting inside the Google map pack for the first time.

The impact on the business was immediate and measurable. New patient phone calls from search roughly tripled compared to the six months before the campaign. Because the rankings are organic, those calls keep coming without paying for each click, and the practice now ranks on page 1 for a range of related searches beyond the original target.
