Welcome to the Yodle Dental Marketing Blog! Having gained expertise in online dental marketing over the years, and having spoken with many thousands of dentists on the phone, in their offices, and at dental trade shows around the country, we at Yodle are excited to have this opportunity to share with you and discuss marketing techniques that can help dental practices stay ahead of the curve in today's difficult business environment.

In case you aren't familiar, Yodle is a leading provider of local online advertising services, specifically designed to help small businesses get found by potential clients searching online for the services they offer. Since our founding in 2005, Yodle has helped many thousands of local businesses, including well over a thousand dental practices, effectively market themselves online. We help you generate new patients cost-effectively by promoting your dental practice online, designing you a high-quality dental website, and – most importantly – making your phone ring!

Through this blog we hope to share some of the same marketing tactics that have been extremely effective for our dental clients. Our resident dental marketing experts will regularly post and discuss their ideas and experiences here on an array of topics that cater specifically to the marketing needs of dental practices. Hopefully these marketing tactics can play a part in helping you more effectively reach your target and attract new patients, making 2010 the year that your marketing dollars truly work for you - not the other way around.

We would love to use this blog as a means to interact and hear from you, so feel free to reach out to us with any questions, comments and experiences you would like to share. Make sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and remember to visit this blog regularly for updates.

Happy Marketing!!!
