Our plan

What we'd prioritize for a Shawnee practice

Chosen by fixed rules from the figures above.

  1. Room to stand out for plastic surgeons

    No NPI-registered plastic surgeons list a practice address in Shawnee (nationally there is one for every 58,824 residents). Fewer local competitors in search for a plastic surgeon. See our marketing for plastic surgeons.

  2. A crowded field for chiropractors

    2.5 times the US number of NPI-registered chiropractors per resident (one per 1,318 residents). A chiropractor here needs a clear focus and real reviews: see our marketing for chiropractors.

  3. Lead with elective and cash-pay services

    The median household income in Shawnee is $109,940, against $80,734 for the US. Elective work earns its own pages and budget, with Google and Facebook ads.

  4. Service pages that answer the questions

    53.1% of Shawnee residents aged 25 and older hold a bachelor's degree or higher, against 35.7% for the US. Detailed treatment pages come first, and the SEO work builds on them.
