How to promote a medical site in 2024

Promotion for the site of medical services is associated with additional difficulties due to the nuances inherent in this niche. We tell you the key information you need to know for successful promotion.

 

Peculiarities of medical site promotion 

The medical field is very competitive, and there are also advertising restrictions, as some drugs and operations are prohibited from being advertised. In addition, users are very careful when buying medicines and ordering medical services, and search engines have very high requirements for the quality of content. At the same time, local promotion (promoting Google Maps) and transparent communication are effective.

 

What are E-E-A-T, SQEG, and YMYL, and what impact do they have on promoting a medical site

There are three Google approaches to evaluating medical content.

 

E-E-A-T – experience, expertise, authority, reliability.

Key requirements:

 

  • publication on the site of expert content created by specialized specialists with appropriate education and experience;
  • external optimization with the help of publications on authoritative websites;
  • using only true and accurate information on the site.

 

SQEG (Speech Quality Expert Group) is a concept and set of recommendations for content evaluation, developed for search engine specialists, which should also be considered by SEO specialists.

 

YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) is the concept of “wallet or life” which means high requirements for medical content.

 

Key requirements:

 

  • high-quality, expert, and carefully checked content that will not harm the health or financial situation of users;
  • a sufficient amount of high-quality and useful information on the page and on the site in general;
  • positive reputation of the resource;
  • lack of advertising of dubious drugs or advice from non-authoritative specialists.

 

Types of medical sites

These can be sites for:

 

  • pharmacies and dental clinics;
  • diagnostic clinics and laboratories;
  • medical centers of any type;
  • cosmetology centers and offices;
  • manufacturers of medicines, medical equipment, and materials;
  • doctors directly.
