Welcome to our fourth edition of Optometry Web - the newsletter entirely focused on leveraging the power of your web site to help build your practice. Last month's newsletter featured an article on the Top 5 Pages That Visitors View On an Optometry Practice's Web Site which gave us a good sense of what our visitors are looking at. This month, our headline article answers the follow-up question - why are they looking? In other words, are they new potential patients or are they existing patients looking at those pages? The answer is of course 'both', but the details can make you think twice. Hence, this month's headline article discusses the behavior of your web site visitors.
We always welcome your questions, comments, suggestions and opinions and look forward to hearing from you.
