While ChiroWeb.com provides news and information to doctors and students of chiropractic, the site also enjoys an increasing number of consumers seeking information about chiropractic. All told, in March 2006, ChiroWeb's traffic figures exceeded 500,000 unique visits.

With a total of 633,345 unique visits, ChiroWeb received almost 20,000 unique visits per day. This translates to nearly 20 million hits for March on almost 2 million page views. The average visitor spent just over five minutes learning about chiropractic.

In addition to this milestone, ChiroWeb's To Your Health consumer e-mail newsletter reached more than 170,000 subscribers. To Your Health is provided free of charge to interested consumers. It also is used by DCs to educate and inform their patients. (For more information on this patient education program, send an e-mail to myrep@mpamedia.com.)

These figures point to increasing consumer interest in chiropractic. Your practice Web site may be the first point of contact for many potential patients.

Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning?
Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning?

More than 100 doctors of chiropractic participated in relief efforts following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks that left 2,753 dead and far more than the New York City skyline forever altered. Dr. Richard Gorgo Jr. was one of those DCs who selflessly donated his time, skill and compassion during that surreal, yet all-too-real moment in history. This is his remarkable story, originally published on the 10-year anniversary in 2011. Where were you when the world stopped turning? For Dr. Gorgo, the answer is Ground Zero.
