About The Dentist Centre Website Service

A unique dentist website solution

Join the most powerful dentist network in the UK

Our platform needs absolutely no technical knowledge so it can be used with no existing experience. In addition to all the things you need to promote your local dentist and to let your customers book appointments, we provide you with a customer health database and the complete NHS Choices content database (over 9000 pages) and a huge, instant on-line store with 15000+ products.

E-commerce

From toothpaste, toothbrushes, otc products and perfumes to babywear and disability aids, our white label e-commerce service lets you offer a vast range of products through your site; comparable to leading high street stores and the top online retailers, always at extremely competitive prices and often at the best online price in the UK. You have to do absolutely nothing, no stock ordering, no packaging, no delivery. You can provide all this with zero physical effort, staff training or web-development and just receive your profit share on sales from your customers whilst keeping ownership of their sales data.  All you need to do is promote to customers so they know what you can offer and the good prices.

You can, of course, at any time decide to offer e-commerce yourself so the beauty of our service is you can build sales and prove the model before investing time and money.

Marketing

Naturally the more you put into marketing your site's services to your customers and people in the wider local area, the more you will earn out of it. As part of your site we have provided you with similar sorts of tools as used at Boots etc for marketing to existing customers in a secure way and where you can easily search their records and email those that permit you with tailored offers and advice. We also provide both in-store marketing materials and help with local search and other internet marketing such as facebook etc.

As Google begins to understand the relationships between all the members of our network and to see them as authoritative sites, you will start to see benefits in your natural (unpaid) search rankings. This takes time and there is no magic formula and there are also some bare mininums that Google expects businesses to do. For the price we are delivering your website service for, we don't make much in the way of profit. We make money if your site is active so we give you advice on how you can rank better and are working on ways we can help your site attract visitors and not just with Google. For instance, updating your nhs choices profile is a chore but important for helping to drive traffice to your site and is a minimum requirement for even applying for quality payments We are currently working with NHS choices to have your site automatically update your nhs choices profile. 

Cost

The cost is just £375 per year for one practice.  There are no hidden costs or ‘extras’. There is no set-up fee and there are no other compulsory ongoing costs which we believe is unique in the market. The professional site subscription includes support, all the changes / updates you ever wish and all training for staff to help you get the most out of your website. The more stores you have, the cheaper the cost per store is. There is no tie-in contract and you can cancel anytime without penalty.

Once your website is live and the e-commerce is operational and you start promoting your site to customers, you will start to make profit on all sales from your website. It really is that simple. All you need to do is sign up to the service and tell your customers.
