subject: Chiropractic Website Marketing Warning [print this page] If you currently have a chiropractic website and it's not producing new patients or sales from information products that you have, you are not alone. In fact 90% of chiropractors that have websites, don't know the first thing about driving massive amounts of visitors (traffic) to them to get new patients. Typically they are promised by their webmaster that after the site is created, the flood-gates will open and they will begin to get noticed by people in the community. This is absolutely a lie that many website creators keep from you so you will continued to host your website at their many times expensive service. Just because you have a professional, expensive and aesthetically appealing website doesn't automatically mean it will make you a boatload of money.
If you're a chiropractor that is seeking new patients and other forms of income, then you need to understand about internet marketing in today's world. Marketing is what will bring people to your chiropractic website and to your office. Now, there are several types of marketing online from Pay-Per-Click, Banner Ads, email marketing, and social media marketing. Which one should you choose?
Understand this, unlike many have told you, paid marketing and advertising is quickly becoming a dying breed. This is because more and more business owners are waking up to the massive potential of social media which has been blanketing the news lately. Putting together a strategic marketing campaign on social media sites like MySpace, YouTube, Facebook, Digg, LinkedIn and many others can explode your business and website traffic literally overnight. The best part about it is that these networks are 100% free!
It's imperative to have a mentor that can show you how to drive hundreds or thousands of highly-targeted visitors and traffic to your website daily. If you go at it alone, you risk wasting thousands of dollars on paid or ineffective advertising for mediocre results. Video marketing on YouTube and other websites like it provide you a simple, free medium to propagate your message to your community so that boatloads of people will continuously see you. The best part is, these videos work for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week absolutely free!
I have videos that have garnered thousands and thousands of views on only a few months. Do you have any idea what exposure like this would cost on Pay-Per-Click advertising engines? You got it, a truckload of cash! Videos even get indexed very well by Google if you know how to optimize them so climbing to the top of the search engine can be relatively simple and very cheap.
Be cautious and skeptical if a chiropractic website creator tells you that by just having a website, you will get tons of new patients and sales. You could have the best website in the world, but if no one knows about it, then it doesn't matter. If you are looking for mass exposure to your local, national or international community, then marketing via high-traffic social media sites is the perfect way to go and will be very lucrati
