Purpose of the client:

Creation and promotion of a medical site for endoscopy. The owner and the best doctor, Gaidar Ivan, turned to our company with the aim of minimally refreshing the design and improving the site's performance in Google for targeted queries. Endoscopy and examination of the gastrointestinal tract are the main areas of business, the doctor is well known in the offline direction, while in the search results of the site he occupied far from the first positions.

The main goal is to become a leader in the niche and increase the number of clients in a medical clinic in Kiev. Realizing that the main flow of patients to the clinic can be obtained through word of mouth and the Internet, the choice immediately fell on the development of an online direction.

Initial site analysis

At the initial stage, it was clear that we were competing with very large medical sites, and the number of pages on the site did not reach even 10. Taking into account the specifics of the Google search engine, at the initial stage, we chose the direction of expanding landing pages and forming general domain indicators. The main task is to create a thematic resource in the eyes of a search engine, with useful and targeted content. A small site can get into the TOP only due to the thematic nature of the resource.

At the first stages of work:

• Conducted a technical analysis of the site;
• Collected the semantic core for the new structure;
• Generated the initial structure;
• Made a starting measurement of positions and traffic by domain.

Initial metrics:

• Semantic core (queries) in tracking: 628 queries
• High traffic potential : 12 pages
• Potential traffic: 45,650 clicks per month (according to Adwords)

Site positions at the start:

• Google systems. Positions were taken on through a specialized service based on the semantic core in promotion, for example TOP1 indicates that the site at the start had 5 out of 628 keywords for first position).

We saw the full potential of the site, which can be obtained with increased SEO promotion.Taking into account the specifics of a medical site, together with the client we identified a priority area, a promotion strategy, a profile of a user, and target queries that have the potential to get clients from the Google search engine.
