Digital presence

How London pharmacies present their services online

Key findings

The basics are usually in place. The fuller picture varies.

Websites and phone numbers make pharmacies easy to find. Social channels and detailed service information create a broader picture of what a pharmacy offers and how a customer can access it.

Finding a pharmacy online

Websites and phone numbers form the digital front door

Eighty-seven per cent of audited pharmacies have a working website, and all list a phone number. These essentials give customers a way to find the pharmacy and start a conversation about the services they need.

A useful web presence makes service information easier to reach.

Phone access remains universal in the audit, giving customers a direct option when online information is incomplete.

Social media

Social channels remain unevenly used

Fifty-seven per cent of audited pharmacies have at least one Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn account. Forty-three per cent have no recorded presence across those channels, while Instagram is active for 32%.

A focused social presence can give customers another way to recognise services, people and useful updates from a local pharmacy.

Service information

Digital visibility extends beyond a website address

The same audit records private or discreet treatment at every pharmacy. Public descriptions and delivery information appear less consistently, showing how the quality of a digital presence depends on the detail a customer can find.

Clear service, access and delivery information gives customers a more useful view of a pharmacy before they decide how to get in touch.
