How MEDvidi grew
organic traffic 124%
in 12 months
MEDvidi delivers online psychiatry and ADHD care, a category where search demands more trust than almost any other. Reporter Outreach put its medical director in front of consumer health journalists for twelve months. This is what happened.
Growing fast.
Gated by trust.
MEDvidi delivers online psychiatry, ADHD care, and medication management, and content had carried it as far as content can: organic traffic nearly tripled across 2024. Then the winter core-update window took 27% of it back between November and February, right as the engagement began.
The reason fit in one picture. In a category Google and AI search hold to a higher standard of trust than almost any other, MEDvidi’s independent authority looked like this next to the household names.
Content sets the pace in mental health search.
Authority sets the ceiling.
Area is proportional to referring domains.
Medical credibility,
on the record.
Reporter Outreach positioned MEDvidi’s clinical team, led by medical director Michael Chichak, MD, as expert sources for journalists covering everyday health: sleep, stress, nutrition, medication safety. No articles about MEDvidi. Editorial coverage quoting its physicians, with credit pointing home.
Third-party credibility is what YMYL rankings are built on, and it accrues at the domain level. Here is one of the 83, at reading size.
“Technical difficulties during appointments can be a hassle for patients,” Michael Chichak, MD, Medical Director at MEDvidi, an online mental health treatment center, recently told Healthgrades.
“Use an appropriate background, make sure the light is good, and speak directly into the camera so you can make eye contact with patients,” Chichak added. “This will aid in building trust and ensuring a more concentrated atmosphere.”

What we can claim.
And what we can’t.
MEDvidi has kept investing in its own growth since the engagement ended, and recent traffic reflects that work as well as the links. We don’t claim the whole curve. We claim the coverage, the authority it built, and a floor that held.
Rented visibility stops when the spend stops.
This coverage didn’t.

What buyers ask after reading this page. Same answers, same timeline we quote on every engagement.
Reporter Outreach’s digital PR service. Its physicians, led by medical director Michael Chichak, MD, were positioned as expert sources for journalists at consumer health and lifestyle publications, earning 83 placements averaging DR 81 across the twelve-month engagement. Link insertions were not part of this campaign.
First placements typically go live within 2 to 3 weeks. Meaningful ranking movement usually shows in months 3 to 6, and compounding continues through months 6 to 12. MEDvidi’s curve was noisier than most: per Ahrefs, organic traffic bottomed in month three during a period of broad search volatility, then climbed for eight consecutive months, ending the engagement at 2.2 times the January low.
Yes. Links compound: they index, earn trust, and keep lifting the domain after outreach stops, which is why MEDvidi’s record month came two months after the engagement wrapped. Average monthly traffic across the six months post-engagement ran 2.0 times the pre-kickoff level, and even the weakest month since ran 1.6 times above it. The placements featured on this page were re-verified live in September 2026.
Online psychiatric care is one of the most trust-gated YMYL (“Your Money or Your Life”) categories in search. Google and AI search systems won’t recommend a telehealth provider without strong third-party trust signals, and editorial coverage that quotes a platform’s licensed physicians on major health publications is exactly that signal. No amount of on-site content substitutes for it.
Same playbook, three other industries.
