SEO
SEO for physiotherapists across Australia: rank when patients search for their injury and suburb, not only when they already know your clinic's name.
Part of Physio MarketingPhysio search
Rock Solid Marketing runs SEO for physiotherapists across Australia: search work that puts your clinic in front of people looking for help with an injury nearby. It sits within our physio marketing.
Patients rarely search for a clinic name. They type 'physio for knee pain Mildura', 'sports physio near me' or 'dry needling' plus their suburb. If your site has one services page and a Google profile with the wrong category, the clinic with a page for each of those searches gets the booking.
SEO plans start from $1,000 + GST a month with no lock-in contracts. The first step is a free 30-minute discovery call.

Common problems
We build condition and service pages around the searches patients make, from back pain to post-surgery rehab, each with a clear way to book.
We set the right primary category, add your services and areas, and keep hours and photos current, so the right patients call.
What we do
Each part helps a sore patient find you, trust you and book.
A page for each injury and treatment you offer, written in patients' words, explaining what happens at the first visit and linking to booking.
The right category, services, service areas, hours and photos, with posts for clinic news. This is what shows in the map results when patients search nearby.
If you draw patients from several suburbs or towns, each area gets genuine local detail rather than a copied page with the name swapped.
A page per physio with their interests and qualifications, checked against registration. Patients search by name after a recommendation, and these pages catch them.
Page speed, mobile layout, titles, sitemap and internal links checked and fixed, so search engines can read every page.
A Semrush report tracks rankings for each injury and area, and the review call explains what moved and what's next.

SEO is an ongoing process, so the work runs month by month, with a report and a call every time.
A free 30-minute call about your website, your market and the searches your customers make.
Keyword research, analytics set-up and a technical check of your site, from load speed to robots.txt and sitemaps.
Title tags, meta tags, content editing, internal links and offsite link building, all focused on ranking regionally.
A custom report and a personalised review call every month on your rankings, your traffic and what comes next.
The rules
Search content is still advertising under the National Law, so AHPRA's guidelines apply to condition pages, blog posts and Google profile posts. We write about what a condition is and how you treat it, without promising recovery or quoting patients about their care.
Reviews need care too. Patients can review you on Google, and you can reply politely, but you shouldn't repost clinical testimonials on your own pages. We help you ask for reviews properly and keep your pages to facts patients can check.
Found for the injury, trusted on the page.
Package activities
Google Business Profile set-up is $500 + GST if your clinic doesn't have one. Clinics with several locations usually need more hours than the starting plan.

All FAQsOur SEO plans start from $1,000 + GST a month with no lock-in contracts. A single clinic in a regional town often needs less than a multi-site practice in a capital city, where competition is stronger. Google Business Profile set-up is $500 + GST if you need it. If your profile and site just need tidying, we'll tell you before we quote.
Expect early movement within a few months for injury and suburb searches, and steadier results after six months or so. Regional towns with fewer clinics often move faster than capital cities. Your monthly Semrush report shows each search's position, and the review call explains the next step.
Use 'Physiotherapist' as your primary category. Add secondary categories only for services you genuinely offer, such as sports massage if a team member provides it. Fill in your services list, hours and service areas. Categories are one of the main signals Google uses to decide which searches show your clinic.
Patients can review you on Google, and those reviews help your profile, but you shouldn't repost clinical testimonials on your website or in ads. AHPRA's guidelines don't allow them in health advertising. Ask every patient for a review, reply politely to each one, and keep your own pages factual.
Yes, a page for each injury or treatment gives search engines a clear match for searches like 'physio for shoulder pain'. Each page should explain the condition plainly, how you assess and treat it, and how to book. Thin pages with a few lines won't rank, so we write each one properly.
Each location needs its own page and its own Google Business Profile, with real local detail: the practitioners there, hours, parking and services. Your condition pages can then link to each location. SEO for physios in several suburbs works best when every location page is genuinely different.
It's usually easier, because fewer clinics compete for each search. Patients in regional towns also search more broadly, such as 'physio Mildura' rather than a suburb. Your pages should mention the towns you draw patients from, but only where you really treat people from those places.
Look for an agency that understands AHPRA's rules, reports rankings for real patient searches and explains its work plainly. Ask how it handles condition pages and reviews. Good SEO services for physiotherapists focus on bookings rather than traffic alone. If you're comparing SEO for physios in Australia, be wary of anyone promising top rankings.
