EFFECTIVE ORTHOPEDIC MARKETING

With the number of orthopedic physicians employed by hospitals increasing year after year, it becomes increasingly urgent that independent practitioners carve their space in the marketplace. Not only are you competing with fellow small practices, but you’re also in direct competition with huge corporate hospitals and their equally large budgets.

You can position yourself as a boutique orthopedic practice that offers genuine service and goes over and above the cold experience of a hospital. When you have an audience in front of you, it’s easy to convince them to use your service instead. The internet has provided more opportunities to connect with and emotionally engage with potential patients than ever before.

HOW TO MARKET ORTHOPEDIC PRACTICE USING DIGITAL MARKETING

Website Design

Website design is one of the most crucial aspects of any online marketing campaign. It’s the first impression lots of potential clients are going to have of your business, and if prospective clients don’t think it’s up to scratch, they won’t even look at the content. Additionally, search engines factor web design into their algorithm. Slow-loading web pages and high bounce rates are likely to equal a decline in SERP rankings.

A clean website that’s easy to use, features your logo and expresses your brand’s identity will help you to get to the top of Google’s results pages.

Social Media Marketing

Social media channels are probably the most popular places for people to convene, swap stories and make recommendations. You can use sites such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube to connect with your audience, share content and build a community.

To make the most out of social media, you’ll need to genuinely engage with your audience and actively curate your reputation. We have decades of combined experience in running highly effective social media campaigns.

SEO

Search engine optimization is an umbrella term that describes all the ways we can tweak your website and create content to organically send traffic to your website. One of the most prominent and effective long-term digital marketing strategies is using content creation. It works on two levels that are vital for attracting clients and retaining patients who use your services.

First, you include strings of keywords that reflect the searches users input on search engines. As your portfolio of content grows, you’ll climb higher and higher up the SERPs as more of your blog posts match up to search engine intentions. The second highly effective way content such as e-books and blogs works is that it fulfills a need for individuals who are looking for information covering topics such as joint replacement, sports medicine, orthopedic procedures offered by your practice, and beyond.

If you can fulfill a patient’s need before they’ve made a booking or spent money, they’re more likely to trust your brand and return to you when they do need to book an appointment. Another aspect of SEO is the technical side, including coding your website and getting the design right so the site is easy to use.

Local SEO (Google Business Profile)

Local SEO is all about capturing the intention of people who search for an “orthopedic clinic near me.” By optimizing your Google Business Profile profile, you significantly increase your chances of appearing in the local pack, which is the top three results that appear under a Google Map in a local search.

This an exciting way of reaching people in real-time who wouldn’t otherwise know they’re in proximity to your practice. Google Business Profile also prominently places your phone number, physical address and review ratings right there in local search results for prospective patients to engage with and call or visit your website to inquire about surgery options.

PPC

Content marketing and social media marketing are long-term strategies that take time, effort and consistency to keep on top of. Pay-per-click advertising from Google is a great way to quickly climb up to the top of the SERPs.

Considering how many surgery options and orthopedic surgeons there are, getting onto that first page is absolutely essential. Although the keywords can be expensive, you only pay for the ones that generate clicks.
