How to make a website for a diagnostic lab
People usually come to a lab with a doctor's slip in hand and three questions: how much do these tests cost, do I need to come fasting, and when will the report be ready. A lab website with a clear test list answers them and lets people ask for home sample collection on WhatsApp.

What people look for on a diagnostic lab website
- Prices for common tests: CBC, sugar fasting and PP, HbA1c, lipid profile, thyroid profile, liver and kidney tests, vitamin D and B12
- Health packages and exactly which tests each one includes
- Which tests need fasting, and for how many hours
- When reports are usually ready, and how they are shared
- Whether home sample collection is available, in which areas, and any extra charge
- Collection timings, Sunday timings and the earliest time you open
- The pathologist's name and degree
The pages your website needs
- Home: What the lab does, the earliest collection time, home collection areas and a WhatsApp button to ask for a collection
- Tests and prices: Common tests grouped as blood, urine, thyroid, sugar and others, each with its price and report time
- Health packages: Each package with the full list of tests, the price and whether fasting is needed
- Before your test: Fasting rules, what to bring (doctor's slip, old reports), and how reports are shared
- Contact: Address, landmark, collection timings, phone, WhatsApp and a Google Maps button
Sample words for your home page
Blood tests and health packages in Gomti Nagar, Lucknow
Sample collection from 7 AM, all days. Home collection in Gomti Nagar and Indira Nagar: WhatsApp us your test list.
Awasthi Pathology has been testing samples in Gomti Nagar since 2012, with Dr. Pooja Awasthi, MD (Pathology), signing every report. We tell you about fasting when you book, and send your report as a PDF on WhatsApp when it is ready.
Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.
How to make it with AppCub, step by step
- Decide the pages. Most diagnostic lab websites need these pages: Home, Tests and prices, Health packages, Before your test, Contact.
- Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
- Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
- Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
- Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.
Copy this request, change the details to match your diagnostic lab, and paste it into AppCub:

Tips for a diagnostic lab website
- Keep the test names the way doctors write them on slips (CBC, LFT, KFT, TSH), with the full name next to it.
- List every test inside a package; people compare packages line by line.
- Write fasting rules plainly, for example '10 to 12 hours, water allowed', and ask your pathologist to check the wording.
- Change prices in the chat when your rate list changes, so the website and the counter always agree.
- Don't explain what results mean or suggest tests for illnesses; leave that to the patient's doctor and follow your professional council's rules on advertising.
- Add the lab to Google Maps with a free Google Business Profile and put the website link there.
What it costs
- Describing your website and seeing AppCub’s plan for it is free.
- Making it and changing it in chat uses credits for the work done: start with the 2-day trial for ₹99 (150 credits) or the one-time App Pack for ₹499 (200 credits, no autopay). Starter is ₹1,599 a month for 700 credits.
- Publishing is free for an account that has paid AppCub once, at your-name.sites.appcub.ai.
- Work that fails or is rolled back costs no credits.
Good to know
- Patients can't book a slot, pay or download reports on the website; they ask on WhatsApp and you send the report PDF there yourself. For a list of home collections and pending reports for your staff, an app is the better fit.
- The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
- A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
- Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.
Questions
Should a lab website show test prices?
Yes. Most people call a lab only to ask the price, so a clear list for common tests saves your counter many calls.
Can patients download their reports from the website?
No. The website has no logins or report downloads. Most labs send the report PDF on WhatsApp, and the website tells patients that.
How do patients ask for home sample collection?
With the WhatsApp button on every page. You can ask for a ready message that includes their area and test list, and your staff confirm the time.
Can I show which tests need fasting?
Yes. Put it next to each test and on a 'before your test' page, in words your pathologist has checked.
Can I list a health package for each age group?
Yes, on the packages page, each with its tests and price. Describe what is tested; don't say what the package prevents or diagnoses.
Will the website appear when people search for a lab near them?
The pages are made so Google can read them, including your address and timings. Where they appear is Google's decision; a free Google Business Profile helps on Maps.
