Identify your competition on the internet, what websites are the most popular in your market and what are they doing that you aren't? What backlinks do they have that you don't? Once you've identified this you can now begin to use their websites as a benchmark and do whatever they doing plus more. A good start will be to get your site optimised internally then once this is complete start looking for websites which you can link to. Try and stay away from general directories because they don't add value to your site, find sites that are related to yours but still aren't competition. The value in this is because Google ranks pages higher which have similar topical pages linking into it resulting in targeted traffic.

Also do some investigation with the state review board...see if there are any investigations or fines the facility may have. Word of mouth is another way of getting the low down on a senior living facility....ask someone you know, they might have had relatives in the facility you are researching. Do your homework, ask about the services offered and the type of care and level of care offered. Good luck! walk into a place unannounced and ask for a tour….or just show up and look around

Do back ground checks on the place, go for a visit ask some of the residents, ask to call their families. They can be expensive but you want to make sure that the person can afford it but still don't give into cheapness or uncleanliness. Make sure the have a medical staff on board, an transportation to the doctors, also check to see if they have activities. I would go for the apartment one because I know older people still like to have their independence unless they are able to care for them self. But be thurgho when checking into theses place make sure you dot all your I's and cross your T's. Look for quality and friendly staff.
