Picked from the figures above by fixed rules.
Room to stand out for chiropractors
NPI-registered chiropractors per resident in Lancaster are at 0.3 times the US rate, one for every 9,728 residents. That leaves fewer local competitors for a chiropractor in search; see our marketing for chiropractors.
Get into local search early
Counting all seven provider groups on this page, Lancaster has 17.3 NPI-registered providers per 10,000 residents; the US has 22.3. The thinnest group is chiropractors, at 0.3 times the US rate. With fewer competitors to outrank, local SEO comes first.
Service pages in Spanish
26.5% of Lancaster residents speak Spanish at home (US 13.6%). Main service pages, forms and review requests get a Spanish version, as part of the website work.
Put insurance and payment options up front
Median household income $63,690 (US $80,734). We would list plans accepted and financing options on every page of the website.

What Our Clients Say
I’ve had a great experience working with Medi-Edge. They helped design and build our website and have also been handling our SEO and online advertising. I’ve been very satisfied with both the quality of their work and the results so far. Kellen, the owner, has been especially great to work with. He’s been very responsive, helpful, and personally involved whenever I’ve had questions or needed assistance. It’s been nice working with a company where the owner is accessible and genuinely cares about making sure you’re happy with the service. Overall, the entire team has been easy to work with and understands the needs of a dental practice. I would definitely recommend Medi-Edge to other dental /medical practices looking for help with their website, SEO, and digital marketing.
As a fairly new business going into our 5th year I can say this company truly walks it like they talk it. There are many companies promising new companies the stars and the moon and as a new business you have to take risks and invest. If your looking stop and sign up with this company, constant communication, monthly updates, and can always reach them whenever you need an update to your website or help with your google business. I'm glad we found this gem and we always keep it real at IMED DTLA so if your a new business this is your sign. Not only are the prices reasonable the work is amazing and efficient!
I’ve had a great experience with media-edge marketing Kellen and his team are very responsive and always get to my requests in a timely manner.
