The Challenge
What Hoover Family Dentistry Was Facing
A family dental practice in Hoover was struggling against corporate chains with massive marketing budgets. They had a 3.8-star rating and were invisible in Google Maps for all "dentist near me" searches in the Hoover/Vestavia Hills corridors.
- ✕ 3.8-star Google rating with 41 reviews vs. competitors averaging 200+
- ✕ Zero Local 3-Pack visibility for any dental search term
- ✕ No content beyond 4 basic service pages
- ✕ Corporate dental chains (Aspen, Heartland) dominating local search
- ✕ Inconsistent NAP across 80+ directories
