Common mistakes include neglecting mobile-friendliness, slow page speed, duplicate content, and lack of trust signals. Google’s algorithms prioritize patient-first content. Have you made any medical SEO mistakes that hurt your rankings?

I think the biggest SEO mistake is "low quality content." You need expertly written content that not only contain genuine information but also is believable because it is written by expert. If you are not expert, hire experts to write content.

Some of the biggest medical SEO mistakes are using outdated or non-compliant content, ignoring local SEO, keyword stuffing, not optimizing for mobile, and missing E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness). I’ve seen sites drop in rankings due to weak backlinks or slow loading speeds both crucial for trust and performance.
