| dc.description.abstract | Having an up-to-date website is critical to developing and maintaining an audiology practice in our day and age—even more so with the COVID-19 pandemic and its global entailments. Hearing care professionals and staff members must understand the importance of web design because this affects how a potential client perceives the brand of the audiology practice. A clinic's website is its digital face, setting the tone for the quality of its services. A website must immediately draw interest from a potential client since it takes only 0.05 seconds on average for online users to form an opinion about a website. | en_ZA |
