Web design for
dentists in Etobicoke.

There are 86 dental practices listed on Google Maps in Etobicoke. 75 of them put a website on the listing, and we opened every one of those 75 ourselves. Here is what was behind them.

14 of the 75 Etobicoke sites had nothing wrong with them at all. The other 61 had at least one of the faults listed above, and most had more than one. (Etobicoke is part of Toronto — we count the businesses that give Etobicoke as their address.)

What they are built on

4 of them are on
a free builder.

Behind the 75 sites we counted 5 platforms. The split says something about budget: 43% on WordPress usually means somebody was paid to build it, while the 4 on free builders were almost always put together by the owner.

What actually breaks

No enquiry form anywhere on the site
on 21 of them.

Out of 75 sites in Etobicoke, 21 have no enquiry form anywhere on the site and 18 have copyright line years out of date. We counted each fault separately, so a site with three of them appears in three rows below.

None of the 12 faults we counted in Etobicoke requires a rebuild on its own. They add up to one, though, when a site carries four or five of them at once.

Who you are up against

475 reviews
from the top five.

What this means for you

76% of Etobicoke sites
are technically fine.

Dental practices in Etobicoke are in better shape than most trades we surveyed — 76% of the 75 sites are secure and work on a phone. Across the GTA the same field sits at 2% with no mobile version; Etobicoke is at 0%, near enough the same. Standing out in a market like this takes more than being technically correct: it takes saying something the other 74 sites do not.

Where a dentist lands depends on how many services need a page of their own — $590 at the small end, $3,900 for a practice with a dozen. Nothing is due until it is finished. Full pricing.

Questions

Straight answers.

How many dentists are there in Etobicoke?

86 listings, of which 14 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 72 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.

How many Google reviews do I need to compete in Etobicoke?

To be average in Etobicoke you need 272. To be in the top quarter you need more than 462. To be visible next to the busiest dentist here you would need 1,303, which took them years. 24 of the 86 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a dentist in Etobicoke cost?

Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.

Everything above came from opening real websites. Yours takes ten seconds: we load it the way a customer would and say what we find, including when the honest answer is that nothing needs doing.
