What Are Practitioner Pages?
A practitioner page is a dedicated page about a person at a company. Think of it as an “about me” page. These pages may also be known as team member pages or bio pages.
For example, according to Google, a doctor, dentist, lawyer, financial planner, insurance or real estate agent can be considered a practitioner.
If you are a local business you should have a dedicated page for each notable member of your team.
Why Are They Needed for Local SEO?
I recommend creating practitioner pages for each notable person at your company.
The goal of a practitioner page is to get users familiar with members of your team. This builds trust which can help your conversion rates.
Practitioner pages can also be very powerful when used as Google Business Profile landing pages on practitioner listings.
Must-Have Elements on Practitioner Pages
There are quite a few things you can add to practitioner pages to make them unique while also satisfying the user.
Practitioner Page Checklist
I’ve created my own checklist here. Each practitioner page can include:
- Who the person is
- Their education and training
- Experience and qualifications
- Examples: licensed and insured, certified in XX from XX
- Specialties and focus
- Hobbies or personal facts
- Include reviews about the person
- Locations they serve
- How to contact them
- An embedded Google Business Profile listing of the practitioner listing (not the main business listing). Driving directions might be a Google Maps ranking factor. Make sure to embed the correct Google Map on your site.
