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 once the work is live.
Anonymised client feedback from businesses that needed clearer priorities, sharper pages, and work tied to actual enquiries.
We thought the issue was just traffic. HGM showed us that our product pages were not explaining the offer clearly enough. The changes were practical, the reporting was easy to follow, and the enquiries we got afterwards were a better fit.

We had a long list of SEO tasks and no idea what mattered first. HGM helped us sort the technical issues from the things that were actually stopping people from contacting us. It felt much more useful than another generic audit.
B2B business ownerUK professional services company
Our services made sense to us internally, but they were confusing on the website. HGM helped us split the pages properly, rewrite the vague sections, and make the next step clearer for visitors. The site finally felt easier to explain.

They did not try to rewrite everything for the sake of it. They pointed out where buyers were likely getting stuck, tightened the calls to action, and made the page feel more trustworthy without making it sound like a sales script.

We had separate people looking at content, tracking, and the website, but no one was joining it up. HGM looked at the whole path and gave us a clear order of fixes. The conversations from the site became easier to qualify.

The most useful part was the directness. We did not need a long presentation full of charts; we needed to know why the pages were not converting and what to fix first. That is what we got.
