  4. How we got started…. • Basic decision…make one, or have one made up? • Cost vs our own time. • Picky about the looks?

  5. Next Step…… • Finding a webmaster and a host site • Decide whether we could update clinic information ourselves or not • Rural settings-type of internet service available for our patients

  6. The WebMaster….. • Determining their role-to manage or only design it • Define their hourly costs-their time can add up • Finding someone that understood our needs

  7. Domain Registrar The Host Site ????????????????

  8. Now all the work…. • Defining what goes in it • Finding all those links…several hours surfing the net • Smiling for the camera-and getting their permission!

  9. The Birth of Our Website…. • Announcing our website to the patients • Advertising the web-address • Referring patients to the website on a daily basis

  10. The Afterbirth…. • Changing any clinic news • Flu Clinic dates • Updating the Book List and Links
