Online Appointment Booking

Feb 19, 2012 in acupuncture websites by Acupuncture Websites by QiSites

There are many online appointment booking providers and you’ll find that the available features and ease of use vary widely. If you’re a solo provider offering just one or a few services, any of these booking tools should work for you. But if you have multiple staff and/or multiple locations you should research carefully to ensure that the available features work with your unique office needs.

Our current overall top pick is BookFresh, because it has a clean, simple user interface, an embeddable widget that allows clients to book right from your website, and competitive monthly pricing.

Should I Submit a Google XML Sitemap?

Jun 28, 2011 in acupuncture websites, search engine optimization by Acupuncture Websites by QiSites

Google XML sitemaps are submitted through Google Webmaster Tools. The XML sitemap feature is used to tell Google about pages on a website that it can’t find by itself. Google is very good at finding pages by itself, so it is unlikely that your website will require a Google sitemap. Google XML sitemaps are mainly useful for large websites, especially those where much of the content can only be found via search (e.g. a newspaper archive or other database-driven website).

There is a common misconception that creating a Google XML sitemap will have an impact on how high you place in search results. It won’t. However if you have a fairly large website it may benefit your visitors and Google if you have an HTML sitemap. An HTML sitemap is simply a page that has links to all the other pages on your website (arranged in a logical manner). The sitemap on Apple’s website is a good example of a typical HTML sitemap.

Here’s Google’s Matt Cutts commenting on the usefulness of sitemaps (HINT: HTML sitemaps are more useful)...
