1. Free to be listed
Yes. We offer this service for free. All basic listings are free. However, if you want more from our website we have the “Featured listing” option. You can compare the difference between a basic listing and a featured listing here.
2. Transparent
Our main focus is you: the customer/visitor. I started this project to help the healthcare community. I am a registered nurse (beside other things) and I understand the struggles. Trust me.
I am open to answer any questions about the website. Call me or send me an email.
3. Focused on a specific niche
I created this website for two types of business:
- Domiciliary care services
- Nursing agencies
Focusing on these businesses the website attracts the following types of visitors:
- healthcare professionals such as nurses, care assistants, care givers, support workers;
- business owners (nursing agencies and domiciliary care)
- training companies
- the public looking for domiciliary care services
- care settings such as care homes and hospitals
- job seekers
4. Google maps integrated
Once listed on our website, Google will automatically learn your business location. It will display a map under your listing so people can get directions to your business. This will happen immediately after your business is live on the website.
Google will continue to learn about your listing for a while (days-weeks, depends). Then you will notice that your business will show in your area if relevant words are used in the search. For example if you are a nursing agency in Northampton and you type in “nursing agencies in Northampton” your business will show up. In a lot of cases the listing on our website will show first, before your official website. Basically we increase your chances to be found.
5. Full control on your listing
After you list your business the website lets you make any changes, any time. All you have to do is to login, find your listing and click “Edit listing”.
You can change the logo, contact details, short or long description of the business and location. Be aware that Google will have to learn all about your new changes.
6. Free support
Just drop us an email if you have a problem or a question to contact@agencycarestaff.co.uk or fill in the contact form.
We will get back to you as soon as possible, 1 to 48 hours, depending on how busy we are helping others.
7. Free and unlimited job adverts
Nursing Agencies and Domiciliary Care Services can advertise their job vacancies for FREE.
There is no limit on how many jobs you can advertise.
Same as the listings, the advertised jobs are optimised for Google. They might not have the authority of the big websites specialised in job advertising only.
Any other types of jobs will not be accepted.
8. Each business listed is optimised for Google
We all aim for the first page on Google. Why? Because we know that once we reached the first page our chances to success are higher. Hundreds of times higher than any free social media marketing campaign combined (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn etc). Once you rank on the first page (and stay there) in a certain industry/niche, you are sorted.
Just to let you know (if you don’t know already) that to be first on Google, for a specific niche is a very very difficult thing to achieve.
Healthcare industry in UK is no different. It is extremely competitive. That’s why we will never guarantee to rank your care agency on the first page of Google. It happens, but not every time and not with every business.
What we can guarantee is that your listing will be close to the first page. In many cases a lot closer than your official website. We can definitely increase your chances to be found. If not showing on 1st page, your listing will be on page 2 or 3 in Google. It is better than page 10, 35, 85 or not showing at all. Actually being on page 2 or 3 in Google in such a competitive market is a dream for most businesses.
9. Receive reviews and testimonials
Agency Care Staff website allows visitors to review your care agency. Don’t worry, all reviews are filtered. We might contact you before we publish a review, especially if it is a negative one. Reviews increase your popularity on our website.
Also the reviews on our website will appear in Google search, next to your listing, as stars (1-5 stars).
10. Blog
We use the blog section to keep visitors informed about what we are up to. All articles are relevant to what we do: care, nursing, care business, dementia, events etc.
We also let Nursing Agencies and Domiciliary Care Services to post
their story and achievements on our blog . This can give extra exposure to a business.
Story telling is very powerful. People love reading success stories. What made you start a care agency? What struggles did you face? How did you overcome the obstacles? What did you achieve? Email your story together with some pictures and we will post it on our blog. Picture ideas: your office, yourself, the team, events, team building activities, etc.
