Company Performance Metrics
rankdental is a German SEO and web design agency that works solely with dental practices (Zahnarztpraxen). The brand operates under sagemedia GmbH, based in Bad Staffelstein, Germany, and was founded by André Schäfer and Janin Schäfer. Unlike full-service marketing agencies, rankdental has a strict vertical focus: every client is a dental practice,
and every service is engineered around patient acquisition for dental care. The company positions itself as a premium, performance-oriented partner for established practices that want measurable growth in organic visibility, qualified patient inquiries, and modern practice websites that perform in search. rankdental delivers three core service lines: 1. Dental SEO programs that build topical authority around dental treatments, indications, and local search intent, using sagemedia's Organic-Ovation methodology for cluster-based content architecture and semantic depth. 2. SEO-optimized practice websites built on the Astro stack, where keyword strategy, site architecture, and Schema.org structured data are defined before the first design draft. The agency's positioning is explicit: a website that is not only well-designed but also engineered to be found. 3. The Cherry-Top methodology, rankdental's proprietary framework combining classical SEO, premium-patient targeting, and AI-driven visibility across modern search surfaces. The agency emphasizes transparent reporting, concrete performance ranges, and a fact-based tone rather than generic marketing claims. It is not a directory, not a patient review platform, and not a practice software vendor. Its business model is service-based agency work with a clear vertical specialization. rankdental inherits its methodology and operational backbone from sagemedia GmbH, which brings more than 15 years of SEO experience and proprietary tooling (SageSuite) to the dental vertical.
