Good dental websites are key for encouraging patients to address their dental needs with you rather than at the other dental practices in your area. Dental practices look very similar from the outside and offer the same treatments and procedures so you need a good website to be able to show patients that you are able to offer them fantastic dental care and excellent customer service which they will otherwise be unaware of when they walk past.
Building a good relationship with your patients is key for the success of your dental practice and thanks to advances in digital technology this is now easier than ever before. Previously patients would have had to phone the dental practice or come into the dental practice to talk about what they are looking for or to answer any questions that they may have had. Thanks to dental websites you can put as much information about you and your practice and the treatments and procedures that you are able to offer on the website to try and help patients find all the information that they are looking for.
You can include a chat option as well as the very important click to call button and you can ask potential patients to leave their details with you on your website so that you can call them at a more convenient time to answer any questions that they may have or sign them up to your mailing list. These techniques help you nurture a good relationship with each patient so that you can educate them on the importance of good oral hygiene, advise how they can look after their teeth better and finally encourage them to address the dental needs with you.
User experience
To enhance the effects of these techniques you need to make sure that all patients receive a good user experience when they are on your website. This means the technical aspects of your website need to be working correctly and there should be no delays when loading your website or jumping from page to page. Your website should be accessible on all devices including desktops, laptops, tablets and especially all mobile phones. It is essential that you have a mobile friendly website in 2022 as most people carry out searches on their phone whilst they are on the go.
Your website should have an attractive homepage and a landing page to help encourage patients to explore the rest of the website and also leave their details or call you to book an appointment. These pages need to be carefully thought out and you may wish to change the content on a regular basis to keep people interested and encouraged to revisit to find out more. Making sure you include your USPs and your ethos will help patients find out more about you, encourage them to spend longer on your website and give you more opportunity to convert them into real patients at your practice very soon.
