Atlanta Chiropractors – How many local customers are looking for you?

Back pain is a popular search: Atlanta Chiropractors need to know

On Offer: 1 x Spineless ManI did some research today on chiropractors and noticed that when I just use “chiropractor” the 7 pack was 3 spots down and the rest of the page was directories. Yet when I added the modifier chiropractor “chiropractor Atlanta” the 7 pack was top and the rest of the page was organic websites. Another caveat is that the people int he 7 pack were different.

What this means for local Atlanta marketing is that the highest volume search term is already being returned with local results, and that even with a qualifier like “Atlanta” getting into the 7 pack will become essential for local Atlanta chiropractors.

Here are some search numbers for chiropractors in atlanta:

“chiropractors Atlanta” 1600 per month – costs $3.80 for PPC

“chiropractor atlanta”  1600 per month – costs $4.74 for PPC

“atlanta chiropractors” 720 per month – costs $4.74 for PPC

“chiropractors in atlanta ” 260 per month – costs $4.19 for PPC

these 4 terms = 4180 searches per month

“chiropractors” 450,000 per month

“chiropractor” 1,220,000 per month

“chiropracter” 27,000 per month

How much is a new client worth to Atlanta Chiropractors?

Lets say your average office visit is $50 and each clients normally comes 12x a year this means that a new client is worth aprox – $600 a year or more!

How cost effective is search engine optimization for local businesses like a chiropractor?

So over 8000 people a month are searching for chiropractor/s atlanta

The top 3 spots get 85% of all clicks on the page

The first listing gets 2/3 of those clicks

Just the numbers mam

Meaning the top 3 local listings can expect to get the lions share of traffic – clicks ( aprox – 4100)

The first listing will most likely get 2/3 of those ( aprox -  2600)

If only 10% of those people follow thru with an appointment that lucky Atlanta chiropractor could conceivably get over 260 new clients !

and if you remember that each client is worth a yearly $600 then that could be over $153,000 on new client business a year!. Now imagine getting over 200 new clients each month – could your chiropractic business even handle that?

and someone is already paying an average of $4 for PPC for those terms meaning getting organic results is equal to scarfing up over $16,000 in FREE traffic.

Heck even getting only 1% could mean 26 new clients in one month generating an added revenue of over $15,000.

Right now many local Atlanta businesses are struggling to get new clients,
but the search numbers show that people are still out there shopping, even if more carefully. If you are willing to invest in your future – local search marketing could be the marketing solution for you.

Local SEO to do list:

I will be putting out a video soon that shows this research process and some other important things to consider for local businesses. If nothing else, go Google a term you think people are using to find your business ( NOT your company name) -See who comes up and where you stand. If the map comes up with names, click on the top two and see who is getting the lions share of traffic. THESE are your real competitors.

Search Engine Optimization = Higher Search Engine Placement

Search Engine Optimization = Higher Placement on Google

Being #1 on Google has its advantages: More traffic and trust

High Search engine placement means that you interact with more local consumers when they are in the decision to buy mode. What’s more – local customers TRUST the top listings. So being number one obviously means more visibility, higher trust and more money in your pocket!

Consumers consider top search engine placement a sign of credibility and click on those listings 65% of the time while nearly 85% of searchers ignore paid listings. Why you want professional search engine optimization: 40+% of visitors click on the #1 spot while only 1.5 % click on the #10 spot

Did you know? Google has Changed the Rules for Local Search Results

What most local Atlanta businesses (and even some SEO companies) don’t realize is that Google chooses local search results by a completely different set of rules (ok – its really an  algorithm) than universal search.  Local Search Optimization done right will give you higher search engine placement and better keyword optimization for targeting your local customers, done wrong it will bury your business into obscurity or get your website banned forever. You can only guarentee local serach success by using a local search specialist. (Which we just happen to be <- shameless plug)
