Web design for
dentists in Ajax.

This page is the Ajax slice of a survey of 46 dental practices — every listing on Google Maps, every website opened by hand. 0 of the 38 sites do not work on a phone.

Those 46 listings were checked one at a time. 3 of the 38 sites came through with nothing wrong; the rest had at least one of the problems above.

What actually breaks

No enquiry form anywhere on the site
on 16 of them.

Sorted by how often it appears, the fault list for dentists in Ajax starts with no enquiry form anywhere on the site (16 sites) and no structured data for google to read (11). Both are cheap to fix and neither requires rebuilding anything.

We would start at the bottom of that list, not the top — no analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does affects fewer sites here (8), which means fixing it puts you ahead of the 30 that already have it right only if the basics are done too.

Who you are up against

487 reviews
from the top five.

The five most-reviewed dentists in Ajax hold 1,705, 767, 741, 663, 637. The middle of the field sits at 150, the lower quarter below 38 and the upper quarter above 312. 31 of the 46 are past 100 reviews and 15 hold a rating of 4.9 or better.

Ajax holds 46 of the 2,453 dental practices we found across the GTA, which ranks it 16th among the 26 places we surveyed. Review counts are not comparable between trades, so none of this means anything outside dentists.

What this means for you

The Ajax leaders
already fixed this.

4 of the five most-reviewed dentists in Ajax run a secure site that works on a phone. Between them they hold 4,513 reviews. That is the standard a customer compares you against before reading a word about you.

The 8 dental practices in Ajax with no site at all start at $590; a practice replacing something older sits higher. Either way it is paid after delivery, not before. Full pricing.

Questions

Straight answers.

How many dentists are there in Ajax?

46 listings, of which 3 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 43 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 Ajax?

To be average in Ajax you need 150. To be in the top quarter you need more than 312. To be visible next to the busiest dentist here you would need 1,705, which took them years. 15 of the 46 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a dentist in Ajax 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.
