Having paid thousands of pounds to create your dental practice website, you will want to generate a steady stream of new patient enquiries and a good return on your initial investment as soon as possible.

THE TOP TEN COMMON MISTAKES Here is a useful dental website guide to help prevent dentists from making mistakes and wasting their money on cheap dental website design. My dental marketing business design4dentists has been designing and building dental websites for many years and we work continuously on improving website packages that are created specifically to include the necessary foundation ingredients to launch a successful dental practice website from the onset. There is no such thing as a perfect website, but ignoring professional advise from a dental marketing expert or an experienced dental website agency can prove a costly mistake for your business. Ask the right questions, invest in the right website design agency and you […]

PERFECTING YOUR DENTAL LOGO I have created many dental logos and designed brands for businesses in lots of other industry sectors too. Whatever service, product or area of expertise you claim to promote, it is critical that your branding matches your professionalism. For instance, if your business is a ‘low cost, no frills’ airline such as Ryan Air or EasyJet then you should be able to identify with this by the look of the logo and brand livery. Can you imagine how we would feel if Tiffany & Co packaged themselves with poor branding? We wouldn’t consider their products to be unique or special. They would also struggle to compete […]

  1. WHEN DO I START MY SIGNAGE PROJECT? Plan your dental practice signage design project as early as possible. Once your brand name and logo has been created, you can then proceed to designing concepts of how your identity will appear on a shop fascia or building façade. Avoid leaving your signage project to the last minute. You may have already instructed an architect, interior designer or a building contractor but your dental practice signage project will need to be coordinated at the same time. Electrical cables, support structures and surface preparation requires careful consideration. The whole process can consume many weeks or even months of work and involves design, surveys, planning applications, manufacturing and installation. Many dentists leave their signage […]

  IDENTIFY YOUR DENTAL PATIENTS Identifying your target audience or ideal dental patients is crucial to the success of any business and not just for an independent dental practice. Having the customer at the heart of everything you do will ensure you provide the best and most relevant information, and consistent levels of customer service.   WHO ARE YOUR DENTAL PATIENTS? Who are your existing dental patients, and who are your ideal patients? They may or may not be the same. The location of your practice will play a significant part in this as well. What kind of people live or work in your immediate locality and what specific opportunities does this location give […]

  TOP TEN DENTAL WEBSITE TIPS A dental website can be a significant investment and requires research prior to deciding on the right dental website marketing company to produce what should be regarded as your most important marketing tool. It is also a shop window for your dental practice and a showcase for you personally as the principal dentist to communicate your expertise, approachability and areas of specialisation.

The single quickest and easiest way for the public to source a dentist – whether for NHS dental treatment or private/cosmetic dental […]
