By   |  May 26, 2014

You may have heard the term SEO mentioned in discussions about websites and online presence, but are you not quite sure what it means? Whether you're looking to update the look of your healthcare practice's site or to increase your search engine ranking, you'd benefit from knowing more about this term.

SEO is an acronym for Search Engine Optimization, which is a series of tactics aimed at increasing your website's visibility in search engine results. Essentially, it improves your chances of being found when patients are searching for the treatments and services you offer.

These results should be specific to your area, so that potential patients will see your site pop up as a result when they search for local businesses in your medical field or specialty.
