A little information goes along way...Power of SMS

A little information goes a long way...Power Of SMSI write this post today, not as a LiveHospital personnel, but as a mother, as a consumer. I have a son under 5 years, to whom we need to give pulse polio drops whenever the program comes to our city. We should be grateful to the local NGOs, municipal government and other local bodies who are involved in delivering this program right in our neighbourhood. But as happens on a Sunday, if we dont step out of the house, we sometimes dont come to know at all if there is a pulse polio day in our neighbourhood. A lot of times we are confused if there is pulse polio on that day, because we-heard-it-from-somewhere but are not sure. If, as a mother, I could get an SMS from some local body about the pulse polio day, I would be sure and I will also not forget to take my son there. The local bodies can register me for this service alongwith my son's date of birth. So the messages can automatically stop when my son reaches 5 years of age.This simple SMS will help me as a parent as I receive that information right in my mobile phone. And thus it will the pulse polio program in increasing compliance.

How to have your dental clinic's name appear in Google first page

It is important for dental clinics in India to have their name appear in Google's search in the first page. Why is this important ? People are searching for good dentist in their locations. A user may type 'Bangalore Dentist'   or  'Lucknow Dentist'.  If the dental clinic does not appear in the first page of Google then the clinic looses the customer.  There is a whole field called SEO (Search Engine Optimization) which is making your website appear on the first page of Google. There is a simpler option to start with. Register your name in Google Places and chances are that your clinic name may appear in the first page of Google. There are many  directory services in India which will help customers to discover a dental clinic online, but Google search remains the number one. People use Google more than any services. Hence it becomes important to work on improving your ranking in Google. We have created simple steps on how you can register yourself at Google places. This will not take more than 10mins to register yourself. You can find the link at    How to add your business in Google Places
