The challenge
A small market with global competition
Mauritius is a small country, but this clinic competes with rehab centres worldwide for international patients. Many of them search in French as well as English.
Health sites also face Google’s strictest trust checks (YMYL). To rank, Google has to believe real medical experts stand behind every page.
