Paid Advertising (PPC) built specifically for dentists. Enquiries this week, not this quarter — Google, Meta and social ads managed to cost per lead. Attract private patients while managing overwhelming NHS demand. We already know how buyers in this trade search, which quotes get compared, and which pages turn a search into a phone call — so the plan starts from that rather than from a generic checklist.

Our approach
How we build the campaign
1. Discovery
We learn your best jobs, your margins and the towns you actually want to work in — then build the plan around those, not vanity keywords.
2. Audit & baseline
Technical crawl, Google Business Profile review, competitor gap analysis and an AI visibility baseline across four assistants.
3. Foundations
Fix what's broken: site speed, indexing, schema, citations and profile completeness. This is where the early wins come from.
4. Content & authority
Service, town and industry pages written properly, plus local links and reviews that make them rank.
5. Report & refine
One monthly report in plain English: rankings, calls, form fills and what we're doing next. No 40-page PDFs.

GDC advertising standards and NHS vs private clarity
Dental marketing is governed by GDC guidance and the ASA: no claims of being 'the best', no misleading before-and-afters, registered clinician names and GDC numbers displayed, and prices stated clearly. NHS and private listings must not be blurred — patients searching 'NHS dentist accepting patients' in Cumbria are in a genuinely underserved market, and a page that states your list status honestly and updates it will outperform every vague competitor.

Paid Advertising & PPC for dentists: common questions
Is paid advertising (ppc) worth it for dentists?
Only if it produces enquiries, which is why we scope it against your job values. Enquiries this week, not this quarter — Google, Meta and social ads managed to cost per lead. For dentists, that usually means fewer, better pages targeted at the jobs you actually want, rather than broad traffic that never converts.
How do you tailor paid advertising (ppc) to dentists?
By using your own service, pricing and compliance detail as the raw material. Individual treatment pages: implants, Invisalign, whitening, veneers, hygiene That specificity is what separates a page that ranks from one that reads like every competitor's.
Which locations do you cover for dentists?
Cumbria in depth plus twenty UK cities including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and Bristol. Each location gets its own page, so you appear in the map packs that matter instead of one generic service area.
How much should I budget for ads in Cumbria?
Most local service campaigns run well on £400–£1,500 a month of ad spend plus management. Rural Cumbrian clicks are far cheaper than city rates, which is one of the few advantages of advertising here.
Google Ads or Facebook Ads — which is better?
They do different jobs. Google captures people searching right now; Facebook and Instagram create demand and handle remarketing. Most local businesses start with Google and add Meta once tracking proves out.
Do I own the ad account?
Yes — always. Accounts are set up in your name with your billing. If we ever part ways, everything stays with you.
