Google’s job in a search is to deliver results that successfully meet the needs or expectations of a searcher. That means Google must evaluate your business for
relevance – that there is a good match between your business and the term or phrase used by the searcher
accuracy – how likely it is you are who you say you are (fraud prevention), that you can be contacted at the information provided, and that you offer what you say you offer
quality of your service – some objective measure of customer satisfaction
The Google Business Profile (GBP) page
To help Google measure these priorities, they have provided you with the ability to complete a Google Business Profile (GBP) page. You may be most familiar with this page from your own searches. On a results page, you will notice a panel on the right that usually features a business with
photos of its staff
photos of its office (if there is one)
links to the website
a phone number to call
hours of operation
Google reviews and star ratings
featured products
regular blog postings that flesh out your understanding of the business, its personality, and its credibility
More and more consumers are turning to Google to find you and to evaluate you online, relative to your competition.
Let us help you with these search-oriented services:
Getting those star ratings and positive comments about your business is commercial gold. A testimonials page on your website is helpful, but how do viewers know you didn’t just make them up? By displaying your Google reviews on your company website, you provide “social proof” that others have been satisfied with your services.
You receive the following:
An initial tune-up on your GBP page. If your GBP page is not optimized, Google doesn’t “see you” as readily as they would if it is completely and accurately filled out. We audit your page, add the top priority elements, and remove the most common sources of inaccuracy (and demerits!). You need a GBP page to gather Google reviews.
Advice for collecting Google reviews. Google has protections in place to ensure that reviews are genuine and not coerced or bought. As a result, there are very particular do’s and don’ts for getting reviews. Let us help you avoid common pitfalls that could cause Google to misinterpret your reviews and penalize your listing.
A spreadsheet and templates. We provide you with the tools you need to quickly and easily set up a system for requesting reviews.
Suggestions for handling negative reviews. Bad reviews do happen. But strategic responses and savvy review collection procedures can help you minimize public complaints and actually improve your services and customer satisfaction overall. We provide you with guidance and a selection of suggested text for your responses.
Displaying positive reviews on your website. Google insists on posting all reviews and communication on your GBP page. On your own website, however, you can leverage the benefits of social proof by displaying only your four- and five-star reviews on strategic pages so prospective clients can get immediate feedback from satisfied customers.
What are the key terms related to your services that people search for most?
“Help after the hospital”
“Dealing with dementia”
“Referral to assisted living”
“Aging in place”
As national experts in eldercare, we can help you avoid much of the hit-or-miss experimentation required by search engine optimization (SEO) companies that are not familiar with the eldercare niche.
For clients who hire us to host their company website, we can add service-based pages designed to boost your pages and GBP page in a search result.
You receive
pages focused on top services requested in your niche
starter text and graphics that you add to with details about your offerings
an FAQ (frequently asked questions) section on each page to help you answer the most common questions about that service
display of each service on your GBP page, with links to that service’s page on your website
Part of maintaining a positive viewer experience is making sure that what the searcher sees is accurate and up to date. Although you can simply complete your GBP page and call it done, Google gives you many more points—and you increase the chances of having your GBP page appear in the upper right of even a non-branded search result—if you add to your GBP regularly.
But who has time? For clients using our WordPress template for their company website, the family caregiver content or the Aging Well content for boomers can be set to display on your GBP page as well.
You receive
automatic—handsfree—GBP posting of educational content, including text and graphics. Once a week for family caregiver articles. Once a month for Aging Well articles. No fuss, no muss on your part.
A row of graphics and excerpts on your GBP to add credibility and visual attractiveness to your listing.
Google “points” for regularly updating your GBP.
A GBP tune-up. Even if you think your GBP page is complete, our experience tells us that key elements are likely to be missing or entered incorrectly. There may even be duplicate GBPs from an earlier time in your business. Since accuracy is what Google is all about, we audit your page and your Web presence, making sure the top-priority elements are in alignment with Google policies and removing the most common sources of inaccuracy (and demerits!).
If you are working in the wonderful world of the Senior Care Industry, like I have been for over 15 years, and need a new website or just want to ramp up your LinkedIn profile or Google Business page, I can honestly say the team (Tasha, Ben & Aria) at Elder Pages Online GETS IT! I have never had a company take such an interest and deep dive into researching and understanding my senior move management business like they have. The writing, digital marketing and technical expertise is incredible! The thing about Elder Pages Online, is that they REALLY CARE about getting it right and putting your companies best foot forward, digitally speaking. The thing about working with them is they helped me look at my company with a fresh new perspective! I could not be happier and so excited about our new look and approach!
Don't hesitate to engage w/ Tasha, Aria & Ben from ElderPages OnLine! Superb content. Great suggestions. Well-thought out, researched, organized, comprehensive, purposeful campaigns. I should have started w/ them sooner!
I am a new Aging Life Care Professional who was starting a Solo practice and needed to create a website. I have an MBA degree so I had an idea of how I wanted my website to look but what I did not have was the time to put it all together. I hired Elder Pages to create the website and they did not disappoint! All I gave them was a vision board that I created and they were able to make my vision come to life. I was so impressed and grateful. They saved me so much time. I was then able to use that time towards growing the business. What made the process easier was that they already understood Care Management (Aging Life Care) so I did not have to spend time explaining the business to them. I would highly recommend this business for anyone in the Aging Life Care Profession who would like to have their website created and/or managed for them. P.S. save even more time and purchase their blog package....its EXCELLENT!!
Being a new owner of a Care Management Company, I was lost when it came to a website and how to put it together and manage it. Your website is a key ingredient in marketing, so I turned to Tasha for help. She has made this journey so easy with her patience, organization and knowledge. I don't know what I would have done without her. I love my new website! Thank you Tasha!
I wanted to leave a review for Elder Pages/Serious Illness/Tasha B and her team.... we have worked with this group for over 10 years to build brand awareness and consistency across our markets. Working for a non-profit we are sometimes challenged with a mighty caseload and a small team, but having Elder Pages by our side we have been able to maximize our efforts, complete projects that may have seemed impossible to conquer without their teamwork and support and find ways to further support our teams who support so many patients and families challenged by a serious illness. Elder Pages commitment to innovation is extraordinary and I have truly valued their willingness to come to us with new ideas, new products and new resources to best support our patients and families. If I could give the work they do to support non-profit hospice organizations ten stars, I would!

Her expertise helped me to successfully re-brand my business when I expanded my services. She is always responsive to my needs and consistently provides me with the support I need. Thank you Tasha - I could not have done this without you!
Good content marketing is critical to any company's success. I have been an admirer of the content Tasha creates for a number of years. Tasha has established herself as the expert in content marketing for elder care professionals.
Meeting Tasha at an Aging Life Care Association annual conference several years ago was instrumental to bringing my business into the modern age of social media! Tasha truly understands the challenges care managers face and the work that we do. Her expertise in web design helped me develop a fantastic web site that truly reflects my mission and services. The E-Library Tasha developed as a research scientist has helped me establish credibility and is an easy-to- use tool for educational presentations. Consistent, reliable postings to my social media accounts have saved me time, effort and allows me the opportunity to stick to what I do best, helping elders and care giving families! Best of all, Tasha and her team are so very patient and kind and always make the time to answer my questions in a manner that I can sincerely understand!
