About Lift SEO

We work with one type of client. That's the whole point.

Lift SEO is an Australian SEO agency that works exclusively with medical, cosmetic injectable, dental, plastic surgery, beauty and allied health practices. We don't take on cafés, tradies, or e-commerce stores — every hour we spend goes toward getting better at this one thing: ranking healthcare and aesthetics businesses, within the rules that govern them.

Why we exist

Generalist agencies treat healthcare like any other industry. It isn't.

01
Most agencies don't know the rules exist AHPRA's National Law advertising guidelines, the TGA Therapeutic Goods Advertising Code, and the ACCC's Australian Consumer Law all apply to healthcare and aesthetics marketing — and most SEO agencies have never read any of them.
02
The content that ranks isn't the content that's allowed Generic SEO advice pushes testimonials, before/after galleries, and superlative claims — exactly the content types that carry the most compliance risk for registered practitioners and TGA-regulated treatments.
03
YMYL content is held to a higher standard Search engines apply extra scrutiny to "your money or your life" content — health, medical and financial topics. Thin, generic content struggles to rank regardless of how much is published.
04
Specialisation compounds Every audit, content brief and technical fix we do for one medical or cosmetic client makes us faster and sharper for the next. That knowledge doesn't exist in agencies splitting attention across unrelated industries.

20+ years in SEO & digital marketing Melbourne, Victoria Medical clinics, GPs & cosmetic injectable practices L'Oréal Dermatological Beauty — La Roche-Posay & SkinCeuticals AHPRA, TGA & ACCC compliance frameworks

Nicholas D'Amico

Founder, Lift SEO

Nicholas D'Amico has spent over two decades working in SEO and digital marketing — long enough to have navigated multiple algorithm shifts, the rise of local search, and the emergence of E-E-A-T as the defining standard for health and medical content online.

His career sits at the intersection of two worlds few practitioners have operated in simultaneously: the clinical environment of medical practices, GPs and cosmetic injectable clinics, and the corporate environment of major dermatological brands. Work with L'Oréal Dermatological Beauty's portfolio — including La Roche-Posay and SkinCeuticals — built deep familiarity with regulated product communication, evidence-based content frameworks and the kind of compliance-first review process that major international brands require as standard.

That experience, combined with years of working directly with Australian clinics and practitioners, shaped the approach Lift SEO is built on. The content architecture, topical authority frameworks and AHPRA-compliant content workflows developed for this site weren't assembled from generic SEO playbooks — they were built around the specific demands of ranking healthcare and aesthetics businesses in a market where Google applies extra scrutiny to every published claim.

"Most agencies learn about AHPRA and TGA the hard way — after a client gets a complaint. We built our entire process around those frameworks from day one, because the practices we work with can't afford to find out the hard way."

How we approach every engagement

The same principles apply whether you're a single-location clinic or a multi-site group — only the scale changes.

01

Compliance-first workflow

Every page, post and profile update is checked against AHPRA, TGA and ACCC guidance before it goes live — not as an afterthought.

02

Specialist content team

Writers who understand medical and aesthetic terminology, E-E-A-T requirements, and how to write about treatments without overclaiming.

03

In-house technical SEO

Core Web Vitals, schema markup and site architecture handled by the same team that builds your content — no handoffs, no gaps.

04

Local & multi-location experience

From single-clinic local SEO to coordinating dozens of Google Business Profiles across a franchise group.

05

Transparent reporting

Monthly reports show what changed, why, and how it connects to rankings, traffic and — most importantly — enquiries.

06

No lock-in contracts

Work is reviewed and renewed monthly. We'd rather earn the relationship than rely on a contract term.

07

Direct communication

You deal directly with the people doing the work — strategists, writers and technical leads — not a layer of account management.

08

Built for regulatory change

Advertising guidelines and search algorithms both change. We review our frameworks regularly so your content stays compliant and visible.

What working together looks like

01

Free audit

We review your current site, rankings, Google Business Profile and competitor landscape — and flag any compliance issues we find along the way.

02

Roadmap

We agree on a prioritised plan covering technical fixes, content, local SEO and ongoing GBP management, scoped to your goals and budget.

03

Execution

Our team gets to work — content, technical changes, profile management — with every deliverable reviewed against the relevant compliance framework.

04

Report & refine

Monthly reporting shows progress against rankings, traffic and enquiries, and the roadmap is adjusted as results and priorities evolve.

Frequently asked questions

Do you only work with AHPRA-registered practitioners?+
No. We work with AHPRA-registered practitioners (doctors, nurses, dentists) as well as non-AHPRA businesses such as beauty clinics and cosmetic studios. The advertising framework differs — AHPRA's National Law guidelines plus the TGA Code for registrants, versus the TGA Code and Australian Consumer Law for non-registrants — but both require careful, compliant marketing, which is exactly what we specialise in. See our TGA compliance & structured data service for more detail.
Are you a law firm or compliance consultancy?+
No — we are an SEO agency, not a law firm, and nothing we produce is legal advice. We work from publicly available AHPRA, TGA and ACCC guidance to reduce obvious compliance risks in marketing content. For matters of legal interpretation or formal compliance sign-off, we recommend engaging a qualified professional.
Do you guarantee rankings?+
No — no agency can honestly guarantee a specific ranking position, and any that do should be treated with caution. What we do commit to is a clear, prioritised plan, transparent monthly reporting, and a track record of improving visibility for practices in this niche over time.
What size practices do you work with?+
Everything from single-location clinics to multi-site groups with dozens of locations. The core services — local SEO, content strategy, technical SEO and Google Business Profile management — scale to fit either.
How long are your contracts?+
We work on a month-to-month basis with no lock-in contracts. SEO is a longer-term investment and most clients work with us for years, but we'd rather earn that ongoing relationship than rely on a fixed term.
How do I get started?+
Book a free audit through our contact page. We'll review your current site, rankings and Google Business Profile, flag any compliance issues, and put together a prioritised plan — no obligation.
