Challenges Faced in Boosting the Vet Clinic's Digital Presence

Though our digital marketing team is well-versed in veterinary marketing, scaling the clinic's digital presence posed some initial challenges.

Lack of optimized content

Most existing pages lacked keywords and were not effectively written for SEO. We optimized on-page content around targeted terms.

Missing CTAs

Many pages were missing call-to-action buttons and links to convert visitors. We added relevant CTAs aligned with each page's intent.

Navigation Issues

Poor site architecture made pages hard to find. We restructured the navigation for intuitive access.

Quality Backlinks

With under 15 existing backlinks, we started link-building from scratch by targeting relevant veterinary sites.

On-Page Errors

Technical problems like broken links hampered SEO. We fixed underlying issues through audits.

Site Speed

Slow load times increased bounce rate. We optimized images and web vitals to maximize performance.

Lack of optimized content

With diligence to address these challenges, we steadily strengthened the clinic's SEO foundations and online presence.

Our Digital Marketing Solution for Veterinary Care

To establish Al Barsha Veterinary Clinic as the top choice for local pet owners, our online marketing strategy focused on the combination of SEO and PPC. We developed informative, SEO-friendly content showcasing the clinic's services and veterinary expertise. This formed the cornerstone of far-reaching SEO efforts to rank for keywords like "dog vet clinic," "dog pharmacy in Dubai," and "Dubai vet".

We managed Google My Business to strengthen local pack visibility. Paid campaigns targeted pet owners near clinic locations. The multi-channel digital marketing approach allowed Al Barsha Veterinary Clinic to publish helpful resources while connecting with and educating potential new clients online.

Here is a detailed overview of digital marketing efforts that our online marketing team has performed to achieve the pet clinic’s goals:

SEO Audit for the Veterinary Clinic to Identify Opportunities

As the foundation of our strategy, we first conducted a comprehensive audit of the clinic's current SEO and digital presence. The SEO audit revealed that Ranking keywords were under 100, showing untapped potential to target more localized pet care phrases which ranked competitively. With no dedicated link building, backlinks from veterinarian directories and pet publications were only a handful. Without consistent efforts to boost visibility, domain authority stayed too low.

Analyzing the competitor landscape uncovered clinics ranking higher through optimized content.

Our SEO audit painted a clear picture - though the clinic was moving in the right direction, strategic SEO and outreach could multiply organic traffic and leads. According to our marketing plan, we would create pillar content optimized for Dubai-based queries while building backlinks. With these insights, we developed an integrated marketing strategy tailored to accelerate the clinic's growth as a trusted pet care resource. The opportunities were clear, and we were ready to execute.

Veterinary-Specific Keyword Research to Reach Local Pet Owners

Thorough keyword research was crucial to reach our target audience - pet owners in Dubai seeking veterinary care. By analyzing search volume and intent, we identified hundreds of viable keywords like "dog pharmacy in Dubai", "house call services for cats", "veterinary clinic Dubai", and "veterinary doctor". Optimizing pages and content for these hyperlocal terms was the key to attracting nearby customers.

We also targeted longer, more conversational keywords as these matched the early research stages of pet parents. For example "common pet health concerns", “dog vaccination essentials” and "dental home care for pets". By offering E-A-T-based content, we guided site visitors through their conversion journey.
In total, we expanded the clinic's keyword portfolio from just 30 to over 750+ targeted phrases. This precise targeting fueled a 168.53% increase in organic traffic.

Now ranking for both local and informational keywords, the clinic reaches pet owners at every stage - from proximity-based searches to deep research queries. The selection of a wide range of keywords helped us capture potential patients while building the clinic's reputation.
