About Digital Riser

Digital Riser Ltd is a small digital marketing studio in Edinburgh, incorporated in Scotland on 29 October 2024 with its registered office on Niddry Street in the Old Town. Founder Isla McGill leads web design, SEO and strategy, and the team includes three colleagues: Joudy Maktabi, a web and UX designer; Courtenay McRorie, who runs social media and content; and Ella Goldsmith, a creative designer with a commercial drone licence for aerial photo and video. The team are Wix Partners and Squarespace specialists and aims its services at micro and small businesses.

Dentistry is the clearest theme in their portfolio. Dental clients include Elite Smile Dental Clinic in Livingston, Kingswells Dental Practice near Aberdeen, St Andrews Smile Dental, Your Dentist, KY Dental Studio and the European Academy of Dentistry. For Elite Smile, all in 2025, they rebuilt an outdated site around patient registrations, wrote treatment and careers pages, produced photography and video, ran social media and set up a Google review strategy, with ongoing site management afterwards. At Kingswells, a practice hard to spot inside a larger centre, the brief was local visibility: a redesign, a colour refresh, Google Business Profile management, social promotions and printed flyers. St Andrews Smile Dental moved off an older Squarespace build to a new site with registration and enquiry forms, legal and compliance pages and a review feedback system.

Their method puts planning ahead of design, covering user experience, SEO structure, messaging, local visibility and conversion paths before visuals are produced. The agency does not guarantee search rankings or instant results. None of the dental project pages publish metrics, so results are described in terms of clearer patient journeys, more consistent branding and steadier registrations.

They serve healthcare alongside hospitality, property and education, and work can run as a defined project or as ongoing support. Strategy, website, SEO and social media can be handled remotely anywhere in the UK, while travel for photo and video shoots is agreed before a project begins. The homepage carries testimonials from named individuals.

The fit is strongest for independent practices in Scotland that want a modern website, real photography of the team and premises, a review routine and Google Business Profile upkeep from one small, hands-on team, rather than a large technical SEO programme.
