Webinar: How to Reach #1 in the Google Rankings
 Eyecarepro.net is offering a Search Engine Optimization webinar which will be held on Tuesday, June 22, at 8:00PM ET. This course is designed to not only introduce doctors to the benefits of Search Engine Optimization, but to fully expose them to all details of optimizing their search engines.
Search Engines are the primary method of choice for potential patients looking for a new practice. It follows that if your practice isn't at the top of Google's search results, you won't get the new patients your web site should be bringing you. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process which moves your practice web site to the top of the search engines. This course provides a detailed explanation of the changes that need to take place both on and off your web site to achieve search engine success.
