For private hospital groups
HospitalWaits patients aren't casually browsing. They have a specific NHS waiting time, a specific specialty, and they're actively deciding what to do next. Sponsored placements put your brand in front of them with full UTM attribution + strict disclosure standards.
Standard paid-search traffic for "private hospital" is top-of-funnel. Our visitors are bottom-of-funnel: they know they want a specialist; they're choosing between providers.
We publish what we actually deliver before we discuss price, because you will measure it anyway and we would rather you measured it from us.
Across all 42 editorial listings, outbound provider clicks run at roughly 50–85 per monthin total — about 1–2 per listing. The busiest single specialty (trauma & orthopaedics) accounts for around 16 of them. Those are measured, de-duplicated, bot-filtered figures from our own database, not projections.
Traffic is roughly 28,000 pageviews a month and growing quickly — it was a few hundred in mid-June — but we would rather quote you today’s numbers than a trajectory.
So there is no rate card. At this volume a per-specialty monthly retainer would be poor value for you, and we would rather build something honest than sell you something that does not pay back. If you want to talk about a referral-based arrangement, or about what the demand data shows for your specialties and regions, get in touch and we will start from the measured numbers above.
HospitalWaits is medically informed, independent editorial. We accept sponsorship because qualified-attention monetisation is how we sustain free patient access. We protect our editorial trust because that's what makes the inventory valuable in the first place.
