The weird way Jeff initially got started making websites, and how he started automating the process to help more dentists The referral conversation your ideal patients inevitably have, and how your website can negatively or positively affect how many of those ideal patients show up to your practice Why your social media channels should match your website (and the psychological trigger that fires when they do) Which should come first... your practice? Or your website? (and what timeframe you should follow) How Google will treat your site in the first 90 days (and why this is important to launching your site and new practice) How to get your site ranked #1 in Google (without “hacking” the search engine”) How to avoid having your practice mislisted in the wrong city or state Why you shouldn’t rely on a one-person operation (and what could happen to your site if you do) What happens when you don’t use the terms your ideal patient uses to describe your services What you need to know to avoid losing your site and content forever The red flags you need to look for when trying to find a website development firm The cons to having contracts involved in your website How to handle a website when you’re acquiring a previously established practice How to avoid losing “seo juice” when transferring a website from one owner to another The ONE vital thing every acquired practice website needs to have so that your visitors don’t experience site errors How to avoid looking like every other website in your market What “duplicate content” is and why you want to avoid posting it The right (and wrong) way to make sure your site appears properly on mobile devices
