What is a Technical SEO Audit?

It is a detailed review of the technical factors that influence how effectively your website can be crawled, indexed, and ranked by search engines. It focuses on uncovering the underlying issues that may be limiting your site’s performance, such as crawl errors, site speed problems, weak site architecture or mobile usability issues, and provides clear, prioritised recommendations to help improve your search visibility.

What types of businesses is a technical audit suitable for?

It is suitable for businesses of any size that rely on search engines to drive traffic, leads, and sales. It is particularly valuable for established websites, e-commerce stores, and growing businesses where technical issues may be limiting performance, and for organisations planning a redesign or migration, or looking to diagnose a loss of organic visibility.

How long does the audit process take?

This depends on the size of your website and your business objectives. Smaller websites can often be completed within two to three weeks, while larger or more complex sites may take four to five weeks and sometimes longer. Turnaround times are subject to my current availability and capacity, so it is always best to enquire first, and I can confirm timelines at that point.

What are your payment terms?

Following our initial discussion, I will send you a quote based on your requirements. If you are happy to proceed, a deposit invoice for 50% of the total cost will be raised. Once this is received, I will confirm the delivery date and schedule the work in my diary. After the audit has been completed and we have reviewed the findings together on a video call, I will issue the remaining balance invoice, which is payable within 14 days.

Do I need a Technical SEO Audit?

Not necessarily. If your website has been audited recently, or you are confident that all technical and on-page issues have already been addressed, a full Technical SEO Audit may not be required. If you have experienced a drop in search visibility and do not believe technical factors are the cause, one of my other website audit services may be a better fit.

Web Design and Marketing Services for Dentists

Your website is often a new patient’s first impression of your practice, so it needs to reflect the quality of care you provide. From web design and SEO to branding, PPC, and print marketing, I help dental practices build a joined-up marketing strategy that brings in more patients and bookings.

Helping Your Dental Practice Attract and Book More Patients

With over twenty years of experience as a web developer and SEO consultant, I have worked with many dentists, implant clinics, and other healthcare professionals across the UK. Whether you want to fix your existing site or start from scratch, I can build a professional, patient-focused website that turns more visitors into enquiries.

I also work alongside specialists in paid media, photography, videography, branding, and print design, so I can deliver every part of your digital and print marketing under one roof. From your first enquiry to a fully realised marketing strategy, I will make sure every element works together to help grow your practice.

Here is how I can help:

Web Design – Professional, patient-focused websites built to convert more visitors into new patient enquiries.
Domains & Hosting – Reliable, secure hosting and domain management, so your website stays fast, safe, and always online.
SEO – Technical audits, on-page optimisation, and content strategies that help you rank higher and attract more local patients.
Paid digital advertising – Paid search and social media campaigns that bring qualified enquiries straight to your door.
Branding – A distinctive visual identity, from your logo to your tone of voice, that reflects the quality of care you provide.
Print Marketing – Professionally designed leaflets, brochures, and signage that reinforce your brand beyond the screen.
Photography & Video – High quality imagery and video that showcases your practice and puts patients at ease before they even walk through the door.

Work directly with a web developer and digital marketing specialist who has extensive experience in the dental sector, rather than an account manager passing your requests along to someone else. You get the same expertise as a large agency, without the higher overheads.

Extensive Experience Working With Dental Practices

As a web developer and SEO consultant, I have worked extensively with dental practices, helping them grow their patient base online. One recent web design and SEO project resulted in a 255% increase in organic traffic within twelve months of launch, together with a notable increase in enquiries for cosmetic dental treatments.

I build clean, professional websites that reflect your clinic’s personality, with SEO built in from the outset rather than added as an afterthought. If you are setting up a new clinic from scratch, I also work with an extremely talented freelance branding specialist, who can create your logo, business cards, brand guidelines, and wider visual identity.

If you want to market what you do more effectively, I work closely with an excellent photographer and videographer who can help you showcase your clinic, your team, your services, and your patients’ stories. Together with the talented freelancers I work alongside, I can deliver great quality work that will help your clinic stand out.

We have been extremely pleased with the work James Hubbard Consulting has done for our business. Over time, we’ve seen a noticeable increase in patients finding us online, which has highlighted the strength of the SEO and organic search presence James has built for us. Professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. We really appreciate the ongoing support and would highly recommend.

A 255% Increase in Organic Traffic for Gallions Reach

In 2025, I completely rebuilt the website for Gallions Reach Dental Clinic in London, fixing significant UX and navigational issues with the old site. Twelve months after launch, organic traffic had increased by 255% year on year, alongside a notable rise in enquiries for key service areas.

A Clearer, More Confident Patient Journey

I redesigned the site around clear, patient-focused navigation, making it easy for visitors to find general, cosmetic, and implant dentistry services, check NHS and private options, and book an appointment in a few clicks. Modern photography, prominent contact details, and a dedicated section for nervous patients all help build trust from the moment a visitor lands on the site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Some of the common questions I am asked about my services for dentists.

Can you show me examples of your work for other dentists?

Yes, I have worked with many dental practices and implant clinics over the years. I am happy to share relevant case studies and results during an initial consultation, so you can see the kind of work I do before committing to anything.

How long will it take to see results?

This depends on the services involved and the current state of your website, but SEO improvements usually require at least six months of activity, while a new website can usually be designed and built within four to eight weeks. I will give you a realistic timeframe once I understand your specific requirements.

Do you understand the advertising rules dental practices need to follow?

Yes, I understand that dental marketing must comply with guidance from the Advertising Standards Authority and the General Dental Council, particularly around claims made about treatments and results. I will always make sure your website and marketing materials are compliant, while still highlighting what makes your practice stand out.

Will you work with other dental practices in my area?

No. To avoid any conflict of interest, I only work with one dental practice in each area of the UK for SEO and PPC campaigns, so the results I help you achieve are not shared with a local competitor.
