The brief

Long term visibility in a market where competitors are named after the search terms.

An unusual problem

Ranking for terms like Harley Street hair transplant was extremely difficult because several established competitors had brand names almost identical to those searches. Harley Street Hair Transplant Clinics, Harley Street Hair Clinic, Harley Street Healthcare and Harley Street Hairline, most of them investing in search for years. Competing head on for an exact-match brand term is usually a losing game.

So we went around it

A content-first approach instead: high quality localised pages, long-tail variations of the main terms, and consistent publishing based on what patients actually search for. Combined with the technical side, links and structured data, this let the clinic climb past brand-heavy competitors on the terms that were winnable.

What to take from it

When a competitor is named after the search term, stop fighting for that term. This clinic won by being more useful across a hundred smaller searches than the brand-name competitors were on one big one. The compounding is the point: the articles written in year one are still producing enquiries in year four at no additional cost.

On these figures. Every number on this page comes from the client's own advertising accounts, analytics and Google Business Profile. Screenshots are available on request or on a screen-share. Results depend on the practice, the treatment, the area and the competition, and nothing here is a promise that yours will look the same.
