Reporting period: August 1–August 31, 2026
Here's the work the Dentist Nerds team completed for Perio Implant Health Professionals in August — with links so you can review each item directly.
The priority keywords we track for the practice in Semrush. Position is the spot the practice holds in Google's results for each phrase — #1 is the top. The practice held the #1 local position across all six core implant and periodontics searches this month, and page one for both Downtown Los Angeles phrases and for LANAP in downtown Los Angeles. Domain-wide, the site now ranks for 611 organic keywords — up from 465 in July (+146).

Source: Semrush position tracking for the client's project, August 1–31, 2026. The first six phrases are tracked against Los Angeles local (map pack) results. † marks phrases from the separate Downtown Los Angeles neighborhood campaign, where the position shown is the organic (blue-link) result rather than a map-pack spot; both opened and closed the month at #4. Search volumes are national monthly averages — a "—" in Change means the position held steady month-over-month, and a "—" in Searches/mo means Semrush reports no national volume for that phrase. ‡ marks a phrase measured in Google Search Console rather than Semrush: the position is the site's average position across all August impressions, which is why it carries a decimal. The figures are measured for the Search Console query lanap los angeles — 49 impressions in August, up from an average of #4.2 in July.
