Questions
Choosing a website option
What is the best website option for a dental group?
The one that matches who will run it. If someone at the group has time to build and update pages, a builder or WordPress can work. If nobody does, a managed site like ChairsideWeb removes that work. Each comparison page says honestly when the other option is the better fit.
Are these comparisons fair?
We describe other options in general terms or from their own published information, with sources and the date we checked. We do not state competitor prices, and every page lists when the other option is the better choice.
Can we keep GoHighLevel and still use ChairsideWeb?
Yes. Many groups keep GoHighLevel as the CRM for pipelines and follow-up, and we send every request from the site into it with the office, provider and service attached.
What does ChairsideWeb cost compared with doing it ourselves?
ChairsideWeb is one fee per group from $137 a month plus a $797 build fee invoiced after launch. A builder usually costs less in fees and more in staff time, because your team does the design, writing and updates.
Is ChairsideWeb affiliated with any of these companies?
No. Every name on these pages is a trademark of its owner, and ChairsideWeb is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them.
We already have a site. Is switching disruptive?
We map every existing page, carry content across, keep what ranks and redirect the old addresses. You approve the map before launch, and your domain stays in your name.
Do you compare against specific dental marketing agencies?
No. We compare against the category of a traditional dental marketing agency, not a named company, because every agency works differently.
Which option is fastest?
Any platform can be fast or slow depending on how it is built. We guarantee 90+ PageSpeed on mobile and desktop for every page we build and fix any page that drops below it because of our work.
GoHighLevel, HighLevel, WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow and GoDaddy are trademarks of their respective owners. ChairsideWeb is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them.
