We are convinced that our web page is a useful tool for our purpose and, by organic Google positioning, we try that the web is easily reachable for medical doctors, patients and other researchers.
Introduction: We are currently investigating a medical entity (back mice), which, for several reasons, is UNKNWON to the vast majority of doctors. Many patients who suffer from this disease use GOOGLE to look for information when they see doctors have NO answers.
Objective: Our objective was to create a rigorous, scientific and free-access WEB PAGE to share information with patients, doctors and other researchers.
Methodology: In March 2018 www.Backmice.info was created. SEO (Search Engine Optimization) techniques have been used to ensure that the website has a good organic positioning with the selected “key words”. We use Google Analytics to check and analyze how many users consult the web page and we use Google Search Console to analyze organic positioning of the web. We have created a blog to discuss scientific articles. In addition, we have an email address open to the web’s users to contact us.
Results: Currently, the web page has a good organic positioning on Google. In a few months, the page already had more than 1,500 users who had consulted the page with an average duration of more than 1.5 minutes each session, thousands of impressions with more than 2,500 clicks (CTR Click through rate of 2.5%), and an average position of 9.5 for the web in Google search.
We have had contributions to the blog and emails from patients who have specifically thanked us for the information that they were given.
Discussion and conclusions: In 10 months, since its creation (March 2018), we believe that www.backmice.info is a useful tool according to Google SEO analysis.
In the times of new technologies, the patients play a determining role in helping themselves to ensure their health.
