One problem that most physical therapy practice owners have (especially those located in the , area) is that there aren’t any step-by-step physical therapy marketing blueprints like this one that shows you how to get more physical therapy clients.

Without a solid physical therapy marketing plan, most professionals end up doing what everybody else does: print advertising. They create a basic ad (or pay someone to do it for them) and rent out advertising space in newspapers and the Yellow Pages.

But there’s a huge problem with traditional print advertising that everyone knows but refuses to admit: it’s continuing to decline in effectiveness by the day.

The 2009 comScore study, “Targeting Consumers In A Diverse Media Landscape” points out a few very interesting facts in this white paper. Let’s take a few of the shocking facts and how it specifically applies to your physical therapy practice:

• Usage of Yellow Pages and newspapers have been on a steady decline since 2006

• Only 27% of adults between 35-44 use the Yellow Pages and newspapers as their primary source of business information (it’s even lower for 25-34 year-olds, with only 15% relying on print mediums)

• An astounding 69% of adults are using the Internet to find merchants (it’s even bigger for the 25-34 year-olds, with 78% of them relying on online methods)

So if you’ve been running advertising on the Yellow Pages and have a sneaky feeling that they’re not as effective as they used to be — don’t worry, it’s not just you. You are absolutely correct: print advertising in general has been losing effectiveness and is continuing to decline. Think about it: when was the last time YOU used the Yellow Pages to look for a service provider?

Another reason why physical therapists like yourself cannot rely on print advertising is because prospects are more likely to use print in instances when they’re looking for a specific business they’ve already heard about. If you’re a relatively small practice that’s looking to generate business from new clients that haven’t heard about you yet, chances are they won’t be using the Yellow Pages (or flyers, or any other print advertisements) to be looking for you.

With that said, what’s a physical therapist like you to do in today’s day and age?

Physical therapy practice owners finally realized that having a website is essential to running their business. As a matter of fact, it has become customary for every small business (not just physical therapy practices) to get a website when they start up. But while the physical therapy practice owner’s embrace of the Internet is a good thing, you should realize that simply having a website in existence will not automatically translate to more patients if you don’t get visitors. And not just any visitors — we’re talking about targeted traffic from people that are actually searching the Internet for physical therapy services. This is where search engine optimization and physical therapy marketing on the Internet comes into place.

Do not make the mistake that most physical therapy owners make and try to make your website rank for the general keyword of “physical therapy” — that keyphrase is very competitive and is unlikely to deliver you with patients that you can service. Instead, focus on the “local” long tail (or the LocalTail, as we like to call it) — effective physical therapy marketing involves targeting keywords like “physical therapy ” which are more likely to be from prospects within your area who you can provide your services for.

As soon as you have identified one or two primary keywords, there are two factors to effective search engine optimization: on-page SEO and off-page SEO. If you focus on the fundamentals of each, then it shouldn’t be too much of a problem to rank for your terms. The former is very simple: just be sure that your homepage
