Veterinary Websites

Affordable, Pet Owner-Friendly Website Design for Veterinarians

If you're reading this page it's likely that you either want a new website for your veterinary practice or you're looking to revamp an existing one to make it more modern, or to make it perform better and bring in more patients. As a visit to your website is often the first impression that visitors have of your office, it's a critical foundational marketing tool for your hospital or clinic. Regardless of your reason for being here, we have 14+ years experience helping professionals just like you drive traffic and new patients to your website,

Why Work with Us for Your Veterinary Website?

We could go through a long list of items you need to check off while designing or re-designing your online presence, but we've covered these topics extensively in other parts of our website. Our original client base was made up initially of dentists, as our founder and COO, Dr. David Wank is a Harvard-trained general dentist. Thus, you'll see that much of our content is geared toward the dental field. Rest assured, however, that all of the concepts that apply to building dental, medical and any other professional-service based sites are virtually the same.

For key information about how we build websites and our philosophy about website design please reference this page - and while the page references dentists, the content applies to veterinary websites in exactly the same way.

With that being said, let's talk about the advantages of teaming up with us for your office's web design and development needs:

1. Unlike other agencies (including many of our competitors) we believe that our clients should own their own sites and all of the associated licenses (e.g. for any stock images that are used). Practically speaking this approach means that once we complete your build, it's 100% yours to do with as you see fit (edit, update, change, modify, etc. ).
2. Unlike other agencies who limit their client's access to their own websites under the guise that "clients might break something", our clients have full administrative access. Your website is yours, and while we do recommend that you be careful making big changes if you don't know your way around WordPress, we certainly won't prevent you from doing so.
3. We provide 1 hour of training so you (and your team) are able to manage and update your own content, photos, and any other media you'd like. We'll teach you how to add pages and posts, and how to add images to make your online presence more engaging for your visitors.
4. We use the WordPress CMS (content management system) exclusively for our client's sites (and ours) because it gives our clients the maximum flexibility in running a website.
5. Dr. Wank has been helping his professional-service colleagues succeed for more than 14 years, and has lectured extensively across the United States about all aspects of web development, search engine optimization and paid advertising. Dr. Wank also lectured for WordPress' conferences in New York City and in New Jersey where he taught other developers how to provide agency services with healthcare clients. You can view one of the recorded lectures at Wordpress.tv.
6. Dr. Wank wrote the book on dental and medical website design, and recently updated his book to focus on all types of small businesses. Remember, the core design and development concepts are the same across all non-eCommerce business types. You can download a free copy of the book, "The Small Business Web Design Workbook" at webdesignworkbook.com.
7. We offer reliable enterprise-level hosting at an affordable price.

We Design Gorgeous Websites (Esthetically and Technically)

We develop and build with Google's Webmaster Standards in mind (they are SEO-ready and lightning fast) and as such are technically sound. But as we do not rest on our under-the-hood coding laurels, our sites are also beautifully designed, employing proven established color theory concepts and the latest in modern user interface techniques. Visit our portfolio where you can see dozens of sites we've built for our clients.

Esthetics - it's critical for your presentation to be neat, free of grammatical errors, and to appear organized and planned. If visitors see that you've taken the time to create a quality site, it will reflect positively on your office and build trust with your visitor. You need to build trust with your visitors before you can get your message across to them and start to focus on the marketing aspect of their visit.

Technical Aspects - We'll make sure that your phone number is visible, and that it's easy for people to contact your office. And with Google Analytics (a free program we install for all of our clients), you'll be able to start to learn about how people found you online and begin to see how your site performs. And of course once you know how your site performs, you'll be able to use this knowledge to make your website more appealing to your visitors, and generate even more patient leads.

Building Trust on Veterinary Websites

Trust is a huge factor in getting more patients from any healthcare website, and every healthcare provider should be online. But for veterinarians (like pediatrics) you need an "extra dose" of trust because of the unique nature of the patient-doctor relationship. Regardless of whether or not you are ready to move ahead in the process, make sure that you are aware of the steps that vets must be take in order to build trust with their audiences. Something as simple has having pictures of your staff and short bios that talk about how much the team members love working with people and their pets can go a long way to make visitors choose your practice or hospital over the competition. Read the steps that vets must be take in order to build trust with their audience.
