chiro web site development
In our last post we got into the discussion of the importance of having description tags created for your chiropractic website. Description tags are part of something called meta tags. Search through this site or browse some of the articles to get some more information.
When starting out or hiring to do the work for you make sure you choose a website design standard for your pages that are universally accepted and don’t have a bad reputation in search engines. Try to stay away from frames, excessive flash, animated gifs, heavy graphics, and pages that are light on text. Try to include clean html (follows standards), external cascading style sheets (CSS), a good mix of text and graphics, and tag your graphics with proper data (so they can get picked up in image search indexes).
I love templates but I’d recommend staying away from templates others are using for chiropractic websites, unless you don’t care whatsoever about anyone finding you in search engines. If you are using a template, best to use one that is not being mass produced for chiropractors. You can do this but then you have to do some fairly major coding to get things looking unique from the chiropractor down the street who may be using the same design.
So meta tags are basics that should not be ignored, and that includes title tags and description tags. Take a look at the source code for any of these websites to get an idea of how tags can be used successfully. To view source code just right click the page and select view source. Here are some chiropractic sites but you could actually check nearly any website and get good information…

Be sure to check out others as three sites won’t give enough detail. OK, back to work!
