Can anyone give me any tips regarding setting up a site to promote our practice. Also is it a good, cost effective way of attracting new business?

cheers in advance

No advice, but more a plea: If you have a website, PLEASE put a link on it to Podiatry Arena to help support us.

You can try Officite or any one of the commercial health oriented web developers. The advantage of using them over other web developers is that they often fill your site with health related content which may be helpful to your patients without taking up your valuable time to fill in general information. They also will promote your site on search engines. Of course all of this comes at a price.

If an economical web site is important to you, then I would suggest one simple page. I feel that that can be about as effective as a business card.

I wouldn't expect a flood of patients pouring through your door just because you have a website... no matter how simple or full of information that site may be. If you really want to increase your presence and attract more patient through the internet, you will have to have a marketing budget just as with any other form of media advertising. IMHO.
