Our plan

What we'd prioritize for a Olympia practice

Picked from the figures above by fixed rules.

  1. A crowded field for dermatologists

    4.7 times the US number of NPI-registered dermatologists per resident (one per 3,782 residents). A clear focus and real reviews matter for a dermatologist here; see our marketing for dermatologists.

  2. Reviews and your Google Business Profile first

    One NPI-registered dentist per 469 residents in Olympia (US: one per 1,340). That is 2.9 times the national rate. We would start with the Google Business Profile and review management.

  3. Detailed treatment pages first

    Among Olympia residents 25 and older, 51.8% hold a bachelor's degree or higher (US 35.7%). Detailed treatment pages come first, and the SEO work builds on them.

  4. Medicare-age services and an easy-to-read site

    Residents 65 and older make up 19.7% of Olympia, against 17.2% nationally. Medicare-age services get their own pages, with large type and the phone number one tap away (website design).
