Strengthen your online presence and increase patient referrals with our directory listing and management service.
Yext PowerListings is a service which lists businesses in online directories, such as Google My Business, Facebook, and Bing Places, among many others.
As a Doctor, there are two main reasons to list yourself in Online Directories:
When it comes to Online Directories, they are not all equal. Some have high domain authorities and can drive traffic to your site, plus boost your SEO. Others have low domain authorities and can be considered a ‘toxic link’. But what does this mean for doctors and medical practices? It means you should only list your doctors and practice on the trusted directories.
At Red Castle Services, we have created a list of the most trusted. When it comes to SEO, it’s also good for doctors to list in directories which are specifically designed for medical providers, such as Healthgrades. We will manually list doctors in the 30 best (highest domain authority) directories, including:
and many more!
There is also another problem with Yext. Because it is all automated, it can create duplicate listings. It does not edit your previous listings, but instead creates additional, duplicate listings. Having multiple listings online can be confusing and messy. By contrast, if a real human manages this process, then existing listings can be edited, instead of creating new listings.Here are 5 alternatives to Yext Powerlistings:
BrightLocal is more affordable than Yext, however it does not guarantee that all listings will be accepted. For a higher rate of acceptance, we recommend creating directory listings manually.
Synup is similar to BrightLocal, insomuch as it is more affordable than Yext, but also does not guarantee acceptance of directory listings. Furthermore, it does not include (arguably) the most important directory: Google My Business.
Moz is even cheaper than Synup and BrightLocal, however the listings may take several months to become live. However, one advantage is that once listed, you remain listed, even if you cancel the service.
If you have time on your hands, then this is probably your best option. By listing yourself manually with all the major directories, you can ensure that your listings are accurate, ensure there are no duplicates, and – best of all – it’s free!
Directories listings are included in our SEO Plans. We ensure that doctors are listed correct (with no duplicates) on all the major online directories. We do this manually, to ensure high quality and accurate. View our Plans and Pricing.
