“In just six months from its launch, VidaySalud.com has reached one million page views as measured by Google Analytics. This speaks to the appetite for factual, science-based health information in the U.S. Hispanic community and the Spanish-speaking world at large,” said Dr. Lifshitz. “In addition, we are now delivering over 70,000 double-opt-in newsletters monthly to engaged subscribers.”

This landmark event caps an eventful two quarters in which VidaySalud.com has entered into a content affiliation with the Harvard Medical School, teamed with Meredith Hispanic Ventures’ Ser Padres in its Pregnancy and Children’s Health channels, developed a BabyCare initiative with Warner Brothers’ Baby Looney Tunes, launched new Healthy Home and Oral Health channels and entered into relationships with several blue-chip advertisers.

“Our mission,” stressed Carl Kravetz, the site’s Publisher, “is to enhance the relationships between Latino patients and their physicians by giving Hispanics the information, tools and skills they need to better communicate with their doctors, to ensure better compliance with physician instructions and to deliver better health outcomes.”
