In our last post, we talked about the importance of “page titles” and dental SEO. Page Title & Dental SEO – Brooklyn, NY.
So for fun, we decided to take a look at the top dental websites in and major cities and check out their page titles.
The following results are for the search “dentist near me” in the particular city mentioned below.

We had two takeaways.
Our main takeaway is the keyword “affordable” and “best” both seem to be effective keywords when it comes to increasing click-through rate.
Another interesting finding is the keyword word “near” or “near me” often is included in the page title.
Although interesting, this small informal study might not be that meaningful to many dentists because we only looked at the three top organic search results which are primarily owned by large national firms like Yelp, ZocDoc, OpenCare etc.
Some other time we will look exclusively at independent dental practice results and see the keywords that are being used by those private practices to rank for dentist SEO in Google.
