Challenge:

TopHealth Guide, a global healthcare platform, faced significant challenges in increasing user engagement, driving traffic to the website, and attracting healthcare professionals to be listed on the platform. Despite having a reliable database of doctors, hospitals, and medical facilities, the platform struggled with:

• Low online visibility: The platform was not ranking on Google for important healthcare-related searches.
• Low user engagement: Visitors did not stay long enough to explore doctor profiles or book consultations.
• Inconsistent patient acquisition: Healthcare providers were not seeing a significant number of inquiries or bookings through the platform.
• Poor local SEO performance: The website struggled to rank in local search results, preventing potential patients from discovering services in their area.

Goals:

• Increase organic website traffic and patient inquiries.
• Improve local search rankings and platform visibility.
• Attract high-quality healthcare professionals to list their profiles.
• Enhance the user experience and simplify the booking process.
