How
will new patients find my web site? |
You need to promote your website actively. Online
promotion usually means registering
the site with all the relevant search engines, so people can
"find" you. Offline promotion
is even more important, and you need to tell everybody about
it!
Print the website address ( URL ) on your
business cards and your stationery and
display it in your waiting room .We will be registering your
address with search
engines so that new patients can find you on the net. If required
we can provide
additional professional marketing advice to encourage your
patients to use
your website.

How
do .com, .net, and .org differ? |
These are the letters that appear at the end of your Web address.
The most familiar are .com (commercial entities, such as companies),
.net (network administration), and .org (usually but not always
used for non-profit organizations and institutions).
Other common domains are .gov, .mil, and .edu. These have specific
requirements for registration. Other suffixes are
specific to countries, for example .au represents Australia.

How
long does it take to get a Web address after I sign up?
|
Your Practice Online submits your Web address (domain name)
application immediately. You are notified by
e-mail if your application is completed. Our Web address search
will not show that your Web address is available until
after the registration has been processed. This generally takes
fewer than 24 hours, but can take up to 5 business days
if there is a problem with your registration.
|
|
Once
my Web address is registered, do I need to renew it? |
Your registration is for one (1) year. Near the end of the registration
period, you will be given a chance to renew it.
If you no longer want the address, you may choose not to renew.
Same applies to the web space as well.

Can
you create a custom logo for my practice that can be used
on my site?
|
Yes. For an additional charge, the Your
Practice Online design team can create a custom logo for your
practice.
|
|
How long does it take to
build my site once you have my information? Do I get to
review my Web site before your design team finishes it?
|
Once we understand your design parameters, we will then create
a custom template or shell design of your web page.
It will be posted online for you to review. We'll discuss likes,
dislikes, possible changes, additions, and modifications to
the initial design. It's important at this stage to get the
design exactly as you want it because it will serve as the style
template for the remainder of the site. It takes 10 days for
this initial design Once the template
design meets your approval, it's time to move on to the construction
phase of the project.
Your design template, which was initially created as a single
image, is now converted into HTML code.
It would take 3-5 days from here.
