Where Dental Corner Started

Dental Corner serves the competitive Wollongong dental market. For a dental clinic, organic search needs to attract users who are ready to book, call, compare clinics, or choose a specific dental service — informational traffic builds authority, but commercial searches pay the bills.

The campaign challenges:

  • Increase visibility for local dentist and clinic discovery searches
  • Capture treatment-intent searches like whitening, All-on-4 and gingivitis treatment
  • Build trust through branded and review-focused search visibility
  • Support commercial pages with technical, on-page, content and local SEO improvements

What I Did To Turn It Around

Every activity was prioritised by its proximity to a booked appointment:

1. Commercial Keyword Architecture

Keyword targeting covered dentist, dental clinic, whitening, implants, treatment and emergency-related searches, with on-page optimisation for dental service pages and local landing pages.

2. Technical & On-Page SEO

A technical SEO audit improved crawlability, while meta titles and descriptions were rewritten to lift both relevance and click-through rate in the SERPs.

3. Content & Internal Linking

Internal links connected commercial service pages with supporting informational content, so educational traffic flowed toward booking pages — supported by schema and local SEO improvements.

Honest Methodology — No Inflated Numbers

Because no comparison period was available, this case study deliberately does not claim percentage growth. Every figure comes directly from the practice's Google Search Console data, and estimated leads use a conservative 5% conversion rate on commercial clicks only. Informational traffic was reviewed but never counted toward the lead estimate.
