The verdict in three sentences
In Atlanta, a dental practice website redesign typically costs USD 6,000 to 15,000 for a single office and USD 12,000 to 40,000 for a multi-location group with a local agency, against $4,900 (Growth) or $8,900 (Premium) on Kolonell's fixed grid. The risk specific to practices in Buckhead, Midtown, Decatur or Alpharetta is handling location pages: merging several old sites without a 301 map wipes out pages that used to bring patients. Online booking integration stays priced separately, on quote.
Fix or redesign: how do you decide?
| Situation | A fix is enough | Redesign justified |
|---|---|---|
| One office, current content, slow site | yes, image optimization | no |
| Two or three offices with a site each | no | yes, consolidate on one domain |
| A single "our offices" page for every address | no | yes, one page per location |
| Treatment pages identical to a platform's boilerplate | sometimes | yes if more than 10 pages are affected |
| Form asking for medical history in free text | yes, urgent simplification | depends on the rest of the site |
| No accessibility testing | partly | yes if templates are old |
What budget, by number of offices?
2026 ballparks from typical quotes and public rate pages of Atlanta agencies. Every Kolonell tier includes a project manager reachable on Eastern time, native English or French copywriting, delivery in 3 to 4 weeks and 3 months of support.
| Scenario | Local Atlanta agency | Freelancer | Kolonell |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 office, 10 to 15 pages | USD 6,000 to 15,000 | USD 2,500 to 7,000 | Starter $2,900 or Growth $4,900 |
| 2 to 3 offices, 20 to 30 pages | USD 12,000 to 25,000 | USD 5,000 to 10,000 | Growth $4,900 |
| 4 to 6 offices, 40 pages or more | USD 20,000 to 40,000 | rarely offered | Premium $8,900, scope confirmed in the quote |
| Spanish or another language | USD 2,000 to 6,000 add-on | variable | Premium (the multilingual tier, languages set in the quote) |
| Booking connected to practice software | USD 1,500 to 6,000 add-on | rarely | on quote |
| Merging several domains | often billed separately | variable | included in the project's 301 map |
Team and office photography: local photographer, a third-party cost. Tier details are on our international offer page.
What are the risks, and how do you control them?
| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Location pages lost when merging domains | high | high | URL inventory of each site, page-to-page 301 map, Search Console on every domain |
| Google Business Profile listings pointing to old domains | high | medium | update links on switch day |
| Treatment pages redirected to the home page | medium | high | exact treatment-to-treatment mapping |
| Booking broken after the switch | medium | high | widget tested on staging, phone fallback plan |
| Non-compliant advertising claims | medium | medium | review by the practice owner against Georgia Board of Dentistry rules |
| Health data in an open form | low to medium | high | minimal form; HIPAA-compliant tools with a signed BAA if health information is collected |
Kolonell timeline, once content is ready: inventory and 301 map on days 1 to 3, templates (treatment, location, team, insurance) in week 1, build and migration in weeks 2 and 3, compliance review in week 3, launch and 404 monitoring for 30 days in week 4. Booking software integration runs on a separate track.
On the regulatory side: no before/after photo should suggest a guaranteed result; a WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility target limits ADA Title III exposure; CAN-SPAM covers newsletters; state privacy law thresholds need checking. This is not legal advice.
What makes a good location page?
The exact practice name as it appears on the Google listing, address, direct phone, hours, access and parking, dentists on site, treatments offered there, accepted insurance, a call button. For Midtown, think of students and young professionals (late hours, transit access); for Alpharetta or Buckhead, of corporate families (pediatric care, Saturday slots if you offer them).
Questions to ask the provider: is the main domain in your name? Who updates the Google listings? How many old URLs does the 301 map cover? Is the booking widget tested before the switch?
Need a professional website?

When should you prefer a local agency? If you want a partner who also runs monthly local ads, organizes shoots in each office or builds a custom patient portal, an Atlanta agency is a good choice. For a well-scoped redesign of 2 to 6 locations, the fixed grid is easier to compare.
Mini case study
Illustrative example: Linden Row Dental, five dentists, three offices (Buckhead, Decatur, Alpharetta), each with its own legacy site: 45, 38 and 52 URLs, so 135 lines in the 301 map. Choice: Growth at $4,900, consolidation on one domain with three location pages, connected booking on quote. Third-party costs: local photographer for the three offices at USD 600 each, so USD 1,800. Known total: 4,900 + 1,800 = USD 6,700, against a local quote of USD 22,000. Internal work: 3 Google listings to update, about 30 minutes each.
FAQ
Should each office keep its own domain?
Rarely. One domain with a page per location is easier to manage; the 3 old domains 301 redirect and should stay registered for at least 1 to 2 years.
What does adding a fourth office after launch cost?
An extra location page gets a small quote. The template already exists, so the work is mostly content and photos.
Is online booking included in the $4,900?
Call buttons and a callback request are. Connecting your practice management software is quoted separately.
What timeline for a 3-office group?
3 to 4 weeks once content is gathered, including 3 days for the URL inventory. Collecting copy and photos for each office is often the longest step on the client side.
Can we publish patient reviews?
You can link to your Google reviews. Any quote on the site must follow Georgia Board of Dentistry rules and never promise a result.
Let's scope your project. A multi-location redesign with a page per office, a full 301 map and a compliance review, delivered in 3 to 4 weeks from $4,900. See the international offer or request a free quote: detailed reply within 48 hours.
