Rochester, NY, October 09, 2008 --(PR.com)-- VisualDxHealth, a leading online skin health destination featuring the largest consumer-facing database of expert-edited medical images, today announced a partnership with Healthline Media Network, the second largest health information Web network. In joining the Healthline Media Network, VisualDxHealth will be able to leverage the HealthSTAT On-Demand application within its Web site to help businesses effectively and efficiently reach more than 500,000 monthly users in real time and within the context of their health information search. Logical Images joins a growing network of high-quality health care content providers that collectively attracts more than 16 million visitors a month through the Healthline search platform.
Developed by the health care experts at Logical Images, Inc., VisualDxHealth is a trusted online source of information with the best medical image collection related to skin health on the Web. VisualDxHealth provides consumers with high-quality images and current health information on more than 190 skin diseases and conditions ranging from acne to zoster. HealthSTAT (Semantic Taxonomy Ad Targeting) utilizes Medically Guided™ semantic search technology to understand medical terms, synonyms, and relationships within the health content on a partner's Web page, uncovering a deeper set of contextually relevant advertising opportunities than any other network. By using HealthSTAT, businesses are assured their message receives the benefit of direct, relevant association to the medical condition the consumer searches in real time.
“As more adults research health information online before consulting their doctors, it is important to provide them with the most accurate sources of information,” said Josh Pierry, director of interactive marketing at Healthline Networks. “Placing strategically targeted marketing campaigns adjacent to health content engages VisualDxHealth users with additional sources of relevant information, enabling them to make more confident, informed decisions about their health.”
The Healthline Media Network is comprised of Web sites in a variety of health vertical categories including a network of quality health information publishers, such as USNews.com, Britannica.com, and Health.com. The search platform includes a terminology database of over one million medical terms and consumer-friendly synonyms, as well as 70,000 medical concepts that include diseases, conditions, causes, symptoms, diagnoses, treatments, and other medically relevant attributes.
