How to get more engagement on your practice’s Facebook page
After reviewing some of the best medical pages on Facebook, you likely feel motivated to create or revamp your page.
To help you improve your Facebook page for better engagement, here are some tips to get you started:
- Use social media sites to help establish and promote your brand. Be consistent across your website and social channels with your look and feel.
- Once you create your pages, email your patients, encouraging them to “like” and “follow” you on Facebook. You can also link your practice’s Facebook page on your website, on business cards, and in your email signatures. Encourage your staff to “like” and “follow” your practice and share content.
- Build your presence by liking and following influencers in your community and groups related to your specialty (e.g., local cancer support groups if you are an oncologist).
- Post regularly and provide practical, informative, and actionable content for patients. A blog (or other dynamic content) on your website can make this easier. Including tools on social media sites that allow people to request an appointment and write or view reviews is also a great way to engage people.
- Interact with your social media followers. Reply to their comments and like their posts. If someone brings up personal health information, take it offline as quickly as possible.
- Make your posts both professional and social — patients want to be able to connect on a personal level with your practice, so don’t be afraid to share the accomplishments of staff members or pictures from around the office. But also, don’t forget that as a doctor, you are a trusted source of information for your patients, so it’s essential to keep it professional.
Gaining organic traffic to your Facebook page requires some knowledge of efficient marketing to attract your target audience. The above–mentioned practices have found ways to tailor their page — from the introduction to the posts — to catch their patients’ eyes and encourage them to interact with their content.
Use these medical pages on Facebook as inspiration as you craft your page to reflect your branding and services.
