3. Thrive Agency: How a Smart Mix of SEO and PPC Boosted an Orthopedic Practice’s Lead Generation by 557%

Georgia Bone & Joint, an orthopedic practice group, had a big hurdle to overcome. While its competitors were gaining ground with sophisticated online strategies, Bone & Joint relied only on paid banner ads in a local newspaper. The outcome wasn’t great—30 new patients monthly and a 3.2-star Google rating. Pressured to improve, the practice partnered with Thrive Internet Marketing Agency, which employed organic search and PPC advertising techniques.

Thrive Agency used a modern plan to expand Georgia Bone & Joint’s advertising beyond the constraints of its local newspaper. The team began by securing quality links from niche sources, guest posting, syndicating content, ensuring consistent NAP listings, writing industry blog articles, and posting Google Business updates for each location. Meanwhile, its PPC campaign zeroed in on high-intent searchers—people looking for “orthopedic procedures”, “pediatric orthopedic” and “spinal work”. 

After 12 months, the transformation was remarkable: monthly leads soared by 557%, organic traffic climbed 70%, and ad conversions jumped 212%. Georgia Bone & Joint’s CTR rose by 155%, and 393 new positive reviews poured in, while nearly 3,829 phone calls flooded in from ads. 

This shows how a smart mix of SEO and PPC can boost patient inquiries and solidify a practice’s reputation. In this case, Georgia Bone & Joint benefited by becoming a top orthopedic provider in the area.

It broke through by partnering with The HOTH, whose targeted SEO strategy focused on strategic link-building.

The HOTH launched a results-driven campaign for the company, starting with a deep on-page SEO audit that also focused on technical performance and backlink profiles. The HOTH optimized for high-impact keywords and executed a relentless 67-month outreach campaign, securing thousands of high-quality backlinks from authoritative web development sites (without even requiring new content). 

The results were game-changing. By June 2024, the B2B company’s organic traffic skyrocketed by 787%, jumping from 2,045 monthly visitors to 18,151. Its top 10 keyword ranking occurrence number surpassed 1,500, and its top 3 rankings climbed to 378.
