Yes you are right. Blogs are the place where your thoughts get out. If you don’t have time for it, don’t do it. True

I think a blog should be a personal preference. Let’s face it, it’s too easy to jump on the bandwagon, but if you enjoy writing and like to add value to your practice, it’s certainly worth having one. It kinda adds a less formal touch too.

Updating your blog at least once weekly is important for it to be effective in terms of organic search value, as is the content’s relevance to your business. But the information has to be unique. I’ve seen many dental blogs that use the same exact comment as hundreds of other blogs, because they pull from a company that specializes in building dental websites. The same goes for your actual website content. If your content is generic, then Google (and the other engines) will penalize you by ranking you lower in the organic search results.

We blog for our website and personally, it helps our marketing efforts and website rankings since Raleigh, NC is a larger market so we are competing with a lot of other dental offices in the area.

We’re using SNAP at our office. It’s not for every patient, but for a big cosmetic case, it’s nice to give the patient a photo showing how their whole appearance can change when they change their smile. Then you just have to get them there!! However, on the website it shows a 7 year old doing it. If you really want the SNAP to look good (not like denture teeth), you DO have to play with it. I’m a perfectionist, so it may take me up to a half hour to get it looking the way I want.

I blog, however it doesn’t seem to help that much. I’ve learned about SNAP Imaging Software through Perfect Teeth Imaging at their website: http://www.perfectteethimaging.com . It seems like a great product and I’ve seen the demonstration and I’m hooked. I’m just wondering what other dentists are doing to market their practices. Do you use SNAP? Has it worked for you?

I have to agree with you completely. If you want to have a blog, do it because you like to write, and you are sincere with using it to interact and inform your readers/customers. Don’t blindly follow what your SEO company might be telling you to do.
When used correctly, blog is a powerful way of retaining your customers and increasing your service level.
