DIRECT ANSWER

What does SEO for aged care providers involve?

Aged care SEO turns the searches older people and their families make into enquiries. We do SEO, technical SEO, local SEO, AI SEO, GEO and AEO for home care providers and aged care homes. We build pages for Support at Home services, residential care, respite and dementia care, plus each location. Your organisation approves every page before it goes live.

Home care changed in November 2025. My Aged Care says the Support at Home program replaced the Home Care Packages Program. Families now search new terms, and providers whose pages use them win the enquiries.

Brenden House runs Searchmaxxed and approves the work on every account. He built Radiant Roof Repairs from zero to more than $1 million a year with SEO as its only marketing channel. Across our client book, our work has generated more than $10 million in revenue through search.

Pages for the new program

Support at Home brings new words and new questions. Pages that explain them plainly win searches older pages miss.

One page per service and location

Home care, residential care, respite and dementia care are different searches. Each gets a page for each area you serve.

Pages for families

Adult children do much of the searching. Pages that answer their questions about cost, assessment and choice earn their trust.
WHY YOU MISS ENQUIRIES

Why do aged care websites miss the families searching for care?

Many aged care sites still describe Home Care Packages. Families searching Support at Home find providers who've updated their pages.

Others put every service and suburb on one page. Google has nothing exact to match to respite care Hornsby.

Out-of-date program pages

Support at Home replaced Home Care Packages in November 2025. Old wording misses new searches.

One page for every service

Home care, residential care and respite need their own pages.

No guide to assessment and cost

Families search how to get assessed and what care costs. Without a guide, they read someone else's.

Thin location pages

Families want care near them or near a parent. Each home or service area needs a real page.

HOW YOUR CLIENTS SEARCH

How do families search for aged care?

Families usually start with a question about getting help, then the type of care, then a provider near their parent. Each stage needs its own page.

1. Getting started

The first searches ask how to get help and who pays.

how to get aged care assessment
Support at Home program
My Aged Care assessment
aged care fees

2. Choosing the type of care

Next comes the kind of care. Clear service pages win these searches.

home care services
respite care for elderly
dementia care home
palliative care at home

3. Finding a provider nearby

Now the search names the place. Location pages and the Google profile decide who gets the call.

aged care home near me
home care provider Hornsby
respite care Brisbane
nursing home Geelong

4. Checking quality and cost

Last come reviews, ratings and cost. Clear pages and accurate profiles turn the check into a visit.

THE PROCESS

How does Searchmaxxed run aged care SEO?

We build on a website your organisation owns. Each week we bring your Search Console and GA4 data together with Google results, other providers and aged care directories and AI answers. That shows which page or listing will bring in the most enquiries next. We build it and check the claims. Your organisation approves it before it goes live.

Audit the organisation and its market

We read your site, profiles and listings, then the other providers and aged care directories ranking above you. You see which services and questions you're missing.

MEASUREMENT

How do we measure aged care SEO?

We measure aged care SEO on enquiries and enquiries, split by service. Brand searches follow your other marketing, so they sit on their own line.

Google counts clicks from AI Overviews and AI Mode in the Search Console Performance report, under the Web search type. Our numbers cover classic results and AI features together.

Enquiries per service

GA4 and your enquiry forms count enquiries for each service page. You see which services bring in work and which pages need more.

Clicks per service page

Search Console shows the searches and clicks for each service and guide page. We compare matched 28-day periods after every release.

Map and local rankings

We track where your organisation shows in the map results and the local pages for each office and suburb you serve.

AI answer presence

We ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google which aged care provider to choose near a parent. We log who gets named and which page gets cited, with the date.

PRICING

How much does SEO cost for aged care providers?

Most Australian businesses pay $1,500 to $5,000 a month for SEO. What aged care providers pay depends on competition, how many locations you cover and how much gets built each month. These are market ranges, not our fees.

What SEO costs for aged care providers

Monthly ranges in Australian dollars, from published agency pricing.

One location
$1,500–$3,000 a month
Where most aged care providers start. Google Business Profile, reviews, technical fixes and a page per core service.
A competitive city or many suburbs
$2,500–$5,000 a month

Several locations or a franchise
$5,000+ a month

Aged care demand is local, but large providers compete in every city. Costs rise with the homes, service areas and services you want to win.

What AI search optimisation costs for aged care providers

AI SEO, GEO and AEO get you named in ChatGPT, Google's AI answers and Perplexity. Agencies sell it as an add-on or as its own program.

AI search added to an SEO retainer
From $1,200 a month + GST
AI answer tracking, FAQ and schema work, and content shaped for ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity.
Dedicated AI search program, small business
US$1,500–$5,000 a month
GEO and AEO as their own program: answer pages, business facts, reviews and mentions on the sites AI tools quote.
Dedicated AI search program, mid-sized business
US$5,000–$25,000 a month

Families ask AI tools how aged care works and which provider to choose. The cost depends on how many services and locations you need covered.

Get two or three quotes. Ask each agency what goes live each month, who builds it and whether GST is included. We quote after we look at your site, your market and your goals.
