BROOKLYN, N.Y. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) November 11, 2008 --
The
Everyday Health Network, operated by Waterfront
Media, is now the number one online health destination site within
the health category according to comScore Media Metrix October 2008 U.S.
unique audience figures. The new numbers make the health property one of
the top 50 most visited properties attracting more than 25 million
visitors.
“With the explosion of information available
on the Web, particularly in the health space, there is increased demand
for trusted online health information. Everyday Health fills that need,
which has enabled us to realize our goal of becoming the number one
health property in only two years,” said Ben
Wolin, Waterfront Media's CEO. “Our continued
exponential growth has put us far ahead of our competitors in the space
and provides our advertisers with the ability to reach millions of
consumers already seeking the best way to manage their health. These new
figures emphasize that we are moving in the right direction, and look
forward to the future expansion of our content and resources.”
Since launching in 2006, The
Everyday Health Network – which includes
Revolutionhealth.com, Carepages.com, WhatToExpect.com,
SouthBeachDiet.com
and 21 others has seen impressive monthly growth. With the recent
Revolution Health merger and addition of RightHealth, the online
property has seen an even higher increase in growth. In addition to
being the top health property overall, the Everyday
Health Network is also number one for 52 of the 59 health conditions
comScore Media Metrix* measures, including allergies,
diabetes
and ADHD. Overall day-to-day traffic has more than doubled in the portal’s
