How Blogs Help You Answer Potential Patient’s Questions – Functional Medicine SEO

As a functional medicine practitioner, you know that your patients have a lot of questions about your methods, their health conditions, and more. Educating them is an important step in turning the person who is in the inquiry phase into a patient. This is one of the reasons that so many practitioners offer discovery calls in order to answer some of the preliminary questions a patient has. 

Writing blog posts is a great way to answer your patient’s questions. Here are the top reasons you should consider writing blogs for your functional medicine website. 

Provides Newsletter Content

One of the best ways to keep up with potential patients is to send them a bi-monthly or monthly newsletter.

Follow Up Discovery Calls With Blog Content

This will help them learn more about your approach and potentially answer questions that you didn’t get to during your consultation. Oftentimes, potential patients need to self-educate before they go down the path of functional medicine. 

Can Bring Local Search Traffic

While blogs can be shown to people that live anywhere, you can also bring local search traffic to your site through your blog content. The best way to do this is to put your location information in your blog. When someone in your area is looking for an answer to their question, if you have an article that will answer it, Google can send them to your site. That’s why it is important that all content on your website has an easy-to-find call to action.
