Websites for Podiatry Clinics |
||
| ePodiatry provides the most cost effective way for Podiatrists to have a presence on the web. | ||
ePodiatry has become the most popular
and visited website on the internet. Others claim this, but check
the independant evidence here.
ePodiatry is now using that experience to develop websites for Podiatrists
to increase their web profile. |
||
Why should a Podiatrist have a website? |
||
1) Provides information 24/7 2) A vehicle for providing information 3) Increased credibility and trust 4) An edge over the competition 5) Recruit new patients 6) Provide more comprehensive information than, say, a yellow pages advertisement |
||
What is often wrong with Podiatry web sites? |
||
Remember the internet bubble that burst a while back? It was the unrealistic expectations associated with that euphoria that lead to some of the problems today. The mentality back then was "build a website that costs a lot of money and the masses will come". It was never true. What is wrong with a lot of websites out there? 1) There was unrealistic expectations associated with what the web site would do (there were expectations that never eventuated about the number of new appointments that would come; a number of Podiatrist's web sites spent money on ecommerce sections to the site and never actually sold a single product!!) 2) The sites were not friendly to search engines, so they did not rank very well, so potential patients can not find the site (no matter how good the site was). The use of graphics, pictures and Flash media can not be seen by search engines. 3) Directories that list websites (eg the Open Directory Project) generally only list websites that have valuable and unique content (ie they add value to the directory). How much content there is on the web site is important. Search engines love content, that is because searchers want information and not pretty pictures and animation. ePodiatry has learnt from the hype of the past to provide you a cost effective website that works |
||
Realistic expectations of what a web site will do for you: |
||
1) Provide an additional source of information on you and your services to enhance credibility and have an edge over the competition. Rather than see it as a source of new patients (which it will be) consider it as a place people can go to "check you out" after they have found you somewhere else. Hence the importance of promoting the web site address in the yellow pages and your other advertisements. Imagine how much more credibility you have if there is a www.yourclinic.com in the yellow pages advertisement and your competitor(s) does not. 2) As a source of new patients. If you type into a search engine the word Podiatrist and your town or city, you should come out in the top few results. If you do not, then your website designer has not done their job. (Check out a lot of Podiatrist's websites out there - they do not come up!). 3) A place for a map and instructions on how to find your clinic. The www.yourclinic.com address can be given to new patients over the phone when they make the first appointment. |
