Getting Started with Chiropractor SEO

With time, competing with other chiropractors is getting fierce. Not only are new chiropractors starting their practice, but it’s also becoming more challenging to stay abreast of the latest and ever-changing SEO trends.

With Google updating its cryptic algorithm quite regularly, what used to work to rank your chiropractic practice yesterday may be completely outdated by tomorrow. It seems like you blink and there is a new update.

If you don’t bat an eye at these updates and trends, you will be left behind, resulting in your website being dropped from Google’s organic search results.

In this post, I have compiled some insights drawn from my experience that are, of course, Google-approved to help your practice’s website rank higher. Add these SEO strategies to your chiropractic marketing and start witnessing impressive results. 

Keywords Research, the Fundamental of SEO

When we talk about SEO, the first and most important thing to tackle is keywords. In 2025, nothing is guesswork anymore. You need to have a solid strategy and a concrete plan to use keywords and optimize your chiropractic website for search engines. To identify these terms, use advanced tools and resources to eliminate assumptions. There are modern tools like Google Keyword Planner and AnswerThePublic.com to assist you in finding keywords that your ideal patients use to search for your services.

Once you have your keywords, the next factor to consider is search volume. Different terms have different search volumes, and they pose varying levels of competition. The rule of thumb says that the terms with high search volume are harder to compete for and take a lot of time to rank for these terms, whereas keywords with relatively lower search volume are easier to rank for.

It all may seem easy breezy while you are reading this post. However, in reality, it is quite technical and takes a lot of energy, time, and resources. From what I have discussed, you may get the impression that you have a keyword and you have to check its search volume and start creating a plan around it. But that’s not true. Once you start keyword research, you will realize that there are several types of keywords and for each type, the list often reaches double digits. 

Managing these keywords and noting down their search volume and what results they have driven goes beyond managing an Excel Sheet. To do the job, you need to use a keyword planner. While there are many, I recommend using Google’s Keyword Planner as it is effective and practical. It provides complete details and insights about each keyword you are aiming for in your strategy. 

Create A Blog Section on Your Chiropractic Website

Now that you have your keywords, a solid strategy, and a concrete plan in your chiropractic SEO bucket, a good idea to expand your reach with all these assets is to create a blog section on your website. By publishing valuable, targeted, and keyword-laden content on your blog, you can gain search engine’s attention as well as establish authority in your field.

A pro tip that I can share with you here is to create blog posts that answer commonly or frequently asked questions. For instance, if you often get calls in your office from patients asking for a rough estimate to start the treatment, they are most likely searching online as well. While it may seem difficult for you to give them an accurate figure, you can guide them with a rough estimate through a blog post covering various aspects of treatment costs and payment plans.

Right Linking to Create Authority and Relevancy

Linking is an important element in your chiropractic SEO strategy. Whether it is internal linking, outbound linking, or creating backlinks—each contributes greatly to improving your website’s ranking.

Internal linking helps search engines to understand your content in a better way and navigate your site pages smoothly. It also adds weight to your content and helps users find out related topics and pages on your website.

Then, there is outbound linking. In this type of linking, you add links to other related but reputable businesses in your content. When I devise an SEO strategy, I give the least importance to this type of linking as it gives away more value to your linked website. The best bet for outbound linking is your social handles.

Last but not least, there is backlinking, which is the most crucial type of linking for you to consider. Backlinking is when other websites add links to your pages. The more links you can secure, the better it is for your website’s ranking. This type of linking helps search engines determine the authority of your website. One aspect that you should pay attention to while backlinking is that you should always strive to obtain high-quality backlinks. Here, quality matters more than quantity. One reputable and valuable backlink can easily surpass 10 low-quality backlinks.

Don’t Fall Prey to the Shortcuts

Here is a word of caution!

The tremendous benefits of SEO seem too good to be true, but there are real and tangible advantages that you gain from this exercise. This is why many practitioners or businesses in general choose shortcuts. In eagerness to improve their website’s rankings, they opt for AI tools to write their content. I recommend that my clients stay away from such shortcuts and have their content created and written by professionals, as Google recognizes AI-generated work and does not regard it as valuable. This, in turn, impacts your visibility and rank. 

Up the Ante of Your SEO Game

SEO is a powerful tool to boost your practice and take it to new heights of growth and excellence. With more and more patients relying on fast information to make informed decisions, top-notch SEO is the perfect solution for your practice to stay on the radar of these prospects. By implementing these strategies, you can smash your local competition and reduce your ad spending significantly while gaining attention and engagement from those who need your services.
