Our plan

What we'd prioritize for a Kirkwood practice

Chosen by fixed rules from the figures above.

  1. A crowded field for chiropractors

    Kirkwood has 3.0 times the US number of NPI-registered chiropractors per resident, one for every 1,086 residents. A chiropractor here needs a clear focus and real reviews: see our marketing for chiropractors.

  2. Detailed treatment pages first

    Among Kirkwood residents 25 and older, 67.9% hold a bachelor's degree or higher (US 35.7%). We would write detailed treatment pages first and build the SEO work on them.

  3. Reviews and your Google Business Profile first

    One NPI-registered dentist per 1,011 residents in Kirkwood (US: one per 1,340). The Google Business Profile comes first, then review management.

  4. Put elective and cash-pay services first

    The median household income in Kirkwood is $121,270, against $80,734 for the US. Elective work earns its own pages and budget, with Google and Facebook ads.
