Victorious partnered with Gentry Dentistry, a healthcare practice, to overcome technical barriers and build organic search visibility in a highly competitive local market. Through a combination of technical fixes, keyword-rich content, backlinking, and Google Business Profile optimization, Victorious drove a 161% increase in ranked keywords and earned Gentry Dentistry top positions in local search results.
Technical crawl issues and a lackluster backlink portfolio were limiting Gentry Dentistry's organic search visibility to branded keywords only. Competing in a highly competitive local niche where other practices already had a head start in rankings, the practice needed to break through on non-branded, industry-specific terms to attract new patients.
Victorious identified keyword opportunities specific to Gentry Dentistry's market to optimize content, boost rankings, and capture local audience attention. The team also crafted a strategy to address technical indexing issues and build topical authority. Keyword research laid the foundation for optimized content that would rank for strategic terms. Victorious then paired new keyword-rich content with a backlinking strategy and Google Business Profile optimization to help Gentry Dentistry earn the top spot in local search — including the local map pack.
Incremental improvements produced outsized gains. Resolving Google indexing barriers allowed new content with fresh backlinks to move straight to page one. Even entering late in a competitive niche, Gentry Dentistry's willingness to implement Victorious' recommendations pushed the practice into the most coveted positions in local search.
