"Yahoo! Health's decision to work with Waterfront Media clearly demonstrates that The Everyday Health Network's content is the gold-standard in online health. Our portfolio of experts and brands from across the entire health spectrum, including original content from our flagship site, EverydayHealth. com, enables consumers to live healthier lives every day. This is a win-win partnership as the Yahoo! Health platform will help us reach a relevant audience, engage them on a deeper level and increase the overall number of visitors to the Network," said Waterfront Media president and co-founder, Mike Keriakos.
In addition to the current arrangement, as Waterfront Media continues to grow and add additional properties to its portfolio, Yahoo! Health will have access to utilize any current and future content with attributions and links back to relevant Waterfront Media sources.
"With the health industry one of the fastest growing segments online, consumers are looking for Web sites that provide trusted and reliable health-related content," said Michael Yang, general manager and vice president of Yahoo! Health. "At Yahoo! Health we are constantly looking at how we can advance our editorial library through partnerships with leading providers of health information like Waterfront Media.
