Why it matters

Technical SEO comes first. Everything else sits on it.

You can have the best profile, reviews, and content in town. If Google can’t crawl your site or it crawls slowly on a phone, none of it ranks the way it should.

Google judges the mobile version of your site, not the desktop one, and it uses real-world speed as a tiebreaker between otherwise-similar pages. We get the fundamentals into the green so the rest of your SEO can actually work.

What it is

What technical SEO actually is.

Technical SEO is the behind-the-scenes work that makes your website fast, mobile-friendly, secure, and easy for Google to crawl, read, and understand. It’s the foundation your Google Business Profile, reviews, and content all sit on.

You don’t need to know any of it. That’s our job. You just need it done right, and to be told the truth about what’s actually holding your site back.

What we fix

The foundation, fixed and kept healthy.

Site speed & Core Web Vitals

LCP, INP, and CLS: the real measures of phone speed and stability, and a confirmed Google ranking signal. We fix what actually moves rankings, not the score.

Mobile-first health

Google indexes the mobile version of your site, so that’s what we optimise: tap targets, layout, and speed on the phone patients actually use.

Crawlability & indexing

We make sure Google can reach and index every page that should rank, and that nothing important is quietly blocked or buried.

Clean structure & HTTPS

A secure, logically organised site with no duplicate or thin pages competing against each other, the trust signals a healthcare site needs.

Schema markup

The structured data, Dentist, LocalBusiness, and service markup, that tells Google and AI what you treat and where. We keep it accurate, not aimed at a star-rating badge that’s gone.

Audit first

A real audit, not a generic scan.

Plenty of “audits” are an automated tool spitting out a colour-coded PDF nobody acts on. Ours is a real look at what’s actually stopping your site from ranking, the way an X-ray beats guessing. Here’s what we check.

Crawl & index coverageWhether Google can reach and index every page that should rank.
Mobile Core Web VitalsReal-user field data on your phone speed, not a one-off lab score.
Render-blocking code & heavy imagesWhat’s slowing that all-important first load on mobile.
Duplicate or thin pagesLocation or service pages quietly competing with each other.

Sometimes the honest answer is a new site.

Most of the time we fix what you already have, no rebuild needed. Occasionally a site is too slow and bloated to be worth patching, and if yours is, we’ll tell you honestly rather than bill you month after month to polish something that can’t win. A rebuild is only ever an optional add-on, never a hidden requirement.

Why Elvora

Dental only. Honest. Yours to keep.

Technical work is where agencies hide the most jargon and the biggest upsells. We do the opposite: fix what matters, explain it plainly, and tell you the truth about your site.

We fix what moves rankings.

Not vanity scores. We chase the issues that actually change how you rank and load, not a perfect number on a dashboard.

Plain English, always.

You’ll always know what we changed and why, without a wall of acronyms. You don’t need to learn technical SEO; you need it done right.

You own everything.

Every account and the site itself stay in your name. If we ever part ways, all of it stays with you.

Part of the system

The foundation under the rest.

Technical SEO holds everything else up. Here’s where to read about what sits on top of it.

Questions dentists usually ask

Technical SEO, answered.

What is technical SEO for dentists?

It’s the work that makes your website fast, mobile-friendly, and easy for Google to find, read, and understand. It’s the foundation your Google Business Profile, reviews, and content all depend on.

Why isn’t my dental website ranking?

Often it’s the foundation: Google can’t crawl some pages, the site is slow on mobile, or duplicate pages compete with each other. A real audit finds the actual blocker, which is usually fixable without a rebuild.

My website looks fine to me. Do I need technical SEO?

Maybe not, and if so we’ll tell you. “Looks fine” and “fast and crawlable on a phone” are different things, though. The issues that hold sites back are usually invisible to the eye but obvious to Google.

What are Core Web Vitals, and do they matter?

They’re Google’s measures of how fast and stable your pages feel to a real user on their phone. They’re a confirmed ranking signal that acts as a tiebreaker between otherwise-similar pages, so we fix what moves rankings rather than chase a perfect score.

Do I need a whole new website?

Usually not. Most of the time we fix what you have. Occasionally a site is too slow and bloated to be worth patching, and if yours is, we’ll tell you honestly rather than bill you to polish it.

Is technical SEO a one-time fix?

The big fixes happen up front, but sites drift: plugins update, pages get added, speed creeps back up. So we monitor and maintain the foundation rather than fix it once and walk away.

How much does technical SEO for dentists cost?

It’s built into every plan, which start at $795 a month with no setup fee and no contract. A rebuild, if you ever genuinely need one, is a separate optional add-on we’d quote transparently. See everything included on our pricing page.
