Nutritionists and dietitians · Local SEO

Half your clients are online, and the search still names a locality.

Local SEO for a dietitian is being found by the person who wants to sit across a table from somebody, which is still how most first consultations begin. GullySales sets up the Business Profile around the days you actually consult, lists the conditions you work with, and keeps reviews arriving steadily.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What local SEO means

Local SEO is the work of making your business show up for searches that name your town or locality, such as a service plus an area name. GullySales sets up locality pages, local citations and map listings so nearby customers find you before a competitor across town.

For nutritionists and dietitians

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “You consult two days a week and the listing says open”

    A dietitian who shares a clinic on Tuesdays and Fridays and works online the rest of the week has to show exactly that. One wasted visit becomes the first review.

  • “The hospital's listing is not yours”

    Being attached to a hospital puts you inside their profile and their reviews. Your own listing, with your number and your private practice hours, is what carries the patients who want you.

  • “The platform is the search and the profile is the check”

    People find you on a health platform and then look you up again before paying anything. Your profile, the reviews under it and a working booking link close that gap.

What we do

What we deliver for nutritionists and dietitians.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A profile set up for clinic days and online work

    The correct category, the exact hours you sit at each clinic, and a clear line on video consultations for people outside the city.

    Result: Nobody arrives on a day you are not there.

  2. Conditions and programmes listed as services

    Each condition you work with and each programme added as its own service entry with a short description and a starting fee.

    Result: The listing matches what people search for.

  3. Consultation fee and booking link on the profile

    The first consultation fee, the length and a direct booking link placed on the profile so nobody has to call to find out.

    Result: An enquiry can book without speaking to anyone.

  4. Photographs of the consulting room and of you

    The room, the building entrance and a clear picture of the dietitian, replacing stock images of salads and measuring tapes.

    Result: The profile looks like a practice with a person in it.

  5. A review routine tied to a check-in

    A request sent at a fixed point in every programme, so reviews arrive through the year rather than after one good month.

    Result: The listing keeps a steady, recent record.

  6. A Maps report

    Calls, messages, direction requests and profile views, read next to the discovery calls booked.

    Result: You learn what the listing brings on its own.

How the result is measured

  • Map pack ranking
  • Local search visibility
  • Enquiries by locality

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What Google weighs here

How a patient finds a dietitian nearby, and what to fix first.

Dietitian against nutritionist
Choose dietitian or nutritionist as it matches your qualification and what your council allows. A person told to see a dietitian by a doctor searches that word.
Conditions as services
List diabetes diet, PCOS diet, weight management and paediatric nutrition as separate services, in plain words. Avoid cure claims, since advertising rules for health professions differ by state and body.
Clinic days and online days
State which days you consult at the clinic and which online. A listing showing open every day when you consult two days leads to wasted trips.
Practo and Lybrate
Patients compare you on both. Keep the name, qualification, clinic address and fee the same as the profile.
Qualification on the profile
Write your degree and registration as they appear on your certificate. A patient referred by a doctor checks this first.

Who it is for

This is written for these nutritionists and dietitians.

  • Independent clinical dietitians with a private practice
  • Hospital-attached dietitians who also consult privately
  • Online nutrition consultants working across cities
  • Sports nutritionists working with gyms and athletes
  • Paediatric and maternal nutrition specialists
  • Dietitians focused on diabetes, thyroid and PCOS management
  • Corporate wellness nutrition providers
  • Nutritionists attached to fitness studios and yoga centres

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your clinic days change every week and nobody updates them, so the listing would send people to a closed door.
  • You consult only online and have no address clients may visit, so a map listing would give a false picture.

How it works

How the local SEO work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Write down what is true

    Each branch's real address, signboard name, phone, hours and owning Google account go into one record you sign off. Every later listing is copied from it.

  2. 2

    Search as your buyer does

    We search each branch on a phone from points around it, in your buyers' words, and note who appears with what reviews and photos.

  3. 3

    Fix the profile first

    Ownership first, then name, address, pin, phone, hours and business type. Google can suspend a profile with extra words in its name or an address that is not a real premises.

  4. 4

    Build the branch pages and match the listings

    Each real branch gets its own page, and the other listings are changed to agree with it. We write none for towns without a branch, because Google treats near-identical pages as doorway pages.

  5. 5

    Ask, reply and measure

    We agree with each branch who asks for reviews, when and how. Results are set against the baseline recorded before work began, and the branch that is behind gets the next round.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should a dietitian who works online have a Maps listing?
Yes, if you see clients anywhere at all, even one day a week. If you genuinely never meet anybody, set a service area with no street address. A listing showing a clinic you do not sit at gets removed.
Do we need to be on the health platforms as well?
They bring enquiries and they put you beside everybody else on price. Use them for the clients they genuinely add, while building your own booking and referral routes so you are not renting the whole practice.
Can we show before and after photographs of clients?
No. Keep to your consulting room, your qualifications and educational material. Before and after claims are risky for health professions, and rules differ by council, so check with your own. Never promise results or kilos.
We consult at two clinics on different days. One listing or two?
Create one for each address where you see patients, with its own days and hours. If one clinic's listing belongs to the clinic, ask its owner to keep your days right. Never put both addresses on one profile.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
