Local day care drives success with child care marketing

One local day care center learned how much of an impact the right child care marketing strategy can have on visibility.

Over the last 90 days, they’ve seen hundreds of thousands of impressions, tens of thousands of clicks and hundreds of conversions.

Compared to the previous 90-day period, they saw a 17% increase in impressions, a 45% increase in clicks and a whopping 123% increase in conversions, as well as a 24% increase in new website visits.

How did they do it?

First, they ranked for more organic keywords by optimizing their website for local search. This involved creating location-specific landing pages.

There are so many things that make these location pages effective. Here are just a few of them:

• Easy-to-find contact and location information
• A map of their location
• Reviews to build trust with families
• A video that makes their page more engaging
• A recent posts widget that keeps their page fresh

By optimizing their location pages, they were able to improve their organic page performance and drive traffic to their website.

Second, they ran search ads to capture market share and target high-quality child care leads.

By bidding on relevant keywords, they were able to get their ads in front of people actively searching for their child care services in their area.

Third, they posted regularly on their social media profiles, helping to build a recognizable brand and connect with families in their community.

Finally, they built a strong local presence by optimizing their local listings and getting lots of five-star reviews.
