Why Groundwork?

Not every dental practice needs a marketing agency. They just need the basics done right.

If any of these sound familiar, you're in the right place.

  • Patients aren't finding your practice on Google or ChatGPT
  • You're tired of paying monthly website fees
  • You want a website that brings in new patients, but don't have time to manage it
  • Your website feels outdated
  • You just want a website that works

The guarantee

You own everything

Domain, hosting, code, and every Google account — yours from day one. Walk away anytime. Your site keeps running.

That's how we charge $2,000 once — not a monthly retainer.

Managed hosting ($100/mo) is available, but we don't recommend it. Most practices don't need it. See pricing

How It Works

01

Tell us about you

Your website URL and Google listing are enough to get started. Share as much or as little as you'd like about your practice and goals.

02

We build it

You'll get a live preview in 7 days. A real site you can open on your phone — not a mockup.

03

You review it

30 days to click around and send feedback. When you're happy, we connect your domain and the new site goes live.

04

You own it

Domain, hosting, and code — all in your name. Hire us again, hand it to any developer, or build on it yourself. No lock-in.

Why this exists

Dentists Deserve Better Websites

You went to school to fix teeth, not to navigate hosting providers and SEO plugins. But somehow your online presence has become one more thing you're expected to figure out — or overpay someone else to handle. Most dentists don't need anything crazy. Just a professional site that actually shows up when someone searches for a dentist nearby. That shouldn't cost $15,000 or require a monthly subscription.

Why we built this

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything. Your domain, your content, your hosting account, your code repository, and your Google accounts (Analytics, Search Console, Business Profile). If you never hear from us again, everything keeps working.

No catch. That's just the minimum cost to have a properly built website. Domain renewal is ~$12/year paid to your registrar — not to us. Hosting on Cloudflare Pages is free. There is no monthly fee. If you want us to manage things for you, that's $100/month — but it's priced that way intentionally so you're motivated to just host it yourself and save the money.

Yes. The page you're looking at right now was also built with the help of AI — doesn't it look good? Here's the thing: you or your tech-savvy niece could also build a website with AI tools. But there's still a lot that goes on in the background — writing SEO content, setting up hosting, configuring structured data, submitting sitemaps — that ChatGPT can't quite handle on its own yet. We could teach you all that, but it would cost more than $2,000 and take longer than 7 days. Which is what we're offering.

Nothing changes. That's the whole point. Our explicit goal is that you never have to reach back out. No follow-ups, no check-ins, no renewal notices. Your website keeps running on its own. If you ever want to make updates or get interested in more aggressive growth, we're here — but it's entirely your call.

There's a saying: "Nice shoes won't get you the girl, but bad shoes will lose her." Same thing here. A great website alone won't flood your practice with new patients — but a bad one (or no website at all) is actively turning people away. We don't promise growth. That's a different beast entirely. Our focus is the baseline foundation — the groundwork. You'll be set up extremely well for SEO and AI search with authoritative, geographic content. But the basics are really just an optimized Google Business Profile and a professional, accurate website. Real growth requires regular content creation — yes, more articles, yes, even TikToks. Let's crawl before we walk.

Most practices don't need many changes after the initial build. But when you do, just pay $100 for a single month on the retainer. You get the full month to request whatever fixes you need — then it's done. No ongoing commitment.

Those platforms are full-service practice management systems — patient scheduling, EHR, billing, the works. That's a different product solving a different problem. Groundwork isn't a practice management tool. It's just a website. A really good one that you own outright. Pay once, get your site, done. If you eventually want full-service patient management, you can still use those tools — this complements that journey. But most practices don't need all that to start. They just need to look professional online and show up in search results.
