Local SEO and Google Ads for a Dental Practice on Wix
A dental practice case study using local SEO, Google Ads, Search Atlas or OTTO-style workflows, and Wix website optimization.
What changed from the first constraint to the measured outcome.

Strategy
Dental service keywords, GBP optimization, Wix page updates, and Google Ads structure were aligned around patient intent.
Impact
58% more patient calls, 41% lower Google Ads cost per lead, and 9 dental service terms moved into the local top three.

Rank the work by impact

58% more patient calls, 41% lower Google Ads cost per lead, and 9 dental service terms moved into the local top three.
The decisions, fixes, and execution behind the result.
Who Was the Client?
A dental practice using Wix and looking for more patient enquiries from Google Maps, organic search, and Google Ads.
What Was the Challenge?
The practice had a website and Google Business Profile (GBP), but dental service pages lacked depth, local keywords were inconsistent, and ads were not tightly connected to appointment-ready searches.
What Was the Strategy?
We reviewed GBP categories and services, mapped dental keywords, optimized Wix pages, and structured Google Ads around high-intent patient terms. Search Atlas (an SEO platform) and OTTO-style recommendations were translated into practical page updates.
What Were the Results?
- Dental service pages improved
- GBP and website signals aligned
- Google Ads groups focused on patient intent
- Monthly optimization workflow created
Impact Metrics
- 58% increase in patient calls from search
- 41% reduction in Google Ads cost per lead
- 9 dental service keywords reached local top-three visibility
- 33% more appointment-page visits from organic and Maps traffic
Why Did This Work?
Dental search is local and urgent. The campaign worked by connecting maps, pages, and ads around the same patient decision path.

Questions this case study can help answer.
What was the main constraint in this Local SEO case study?
The practice needed stronger local visibility, but its Wix pages, GBP, and Google Ads campaigns were not connected.
What work did HGM focus on first?
Dental service keywords, GBP optimization, Wix page updates, and Google Ads structure were aligned around patient intent.
Can this result be guaranteed for another business?
No. This case study shows what changed in one context. Results depend on the starting website, market, competition, tracking, offer quality, implementation speed, and the buyer journey.
Is this case relevant for other dental businesses?
It can be useful as a pattern, but the right plan still depends on the specific market, service mix, proof assets, conversion path, and growth constraint for each business.
What clients say after working with us.
We came in needing better visibility, but HGM also fixed the way we explained our offer. The reports were easy to read, the priorities were clear, and the work felt like it was connected to sales, not just traffic.
Elena RoystonE-commerce Brand LeadHGM did not just send us another SEO checklist. They found the weak points in our site, explained them in plain English, and helped us prioritise the fixes that actually affected enquiries. The work felt calm, organised, and commercially sensible.
Haris WhitcombeLeading B2B Business Owner - UKHGM helped us turn a messy service offering into pages that customers could actually understand. The copy became sharper, the structure made more sense, and our team finally had a roadmap we could follow.
Ines VarmaManaging Partner, Growth ConsultancyWhat stood out was the attention to how real buyers move through the site. They challenged vague sections, tightened the calls to action, and made the whole experience feel more credible without making it sound forced.
Marwan EllisDirector, Dubai Services CompanyWe had worked with agencies before, but this was the first time the website, content, and tracking were treated as one system. HGM made the next steps obvious, and the quality of conversations from the site improved quickly.
Nadia KesslerNew York Based Legal FirmThe most useful part was how direct the recommendations were. No bloated presentation, no vanity reporting, just a clear view of what was holding back our pages and what needed to change first.
