The word hype comes to mind when reading many of the releases about the Internet etc. I heard today about a mining company that has merged with an Internet company that sells watches! The www.stayhealthy.com site is going through a transition as well as a new different business model. If those of you who have any knowledge of the web check the site what is there? Check the health resource directory. 4000 affiliates! Search by subject matter. You find a very extensive search engine. What is the drug data base if not a search engine with very user friendly information. A thorough check of the site sees an older experienced site some 4 years old and in development. One that has seen over 3,000,000 visitors not the usual hype of "hits" that is actual users who have been to the site and stayed on the site. This traffic is building. All of this with no promotion! The average time on the site is in excess of 8 minutes!In web time that is a long time. Yes the competition is building but the cream always rises to the top!. Experience, and a great name "Stayhealthy". Competition.Yes but the fact is that no company has dominance in the health field yet. There will emerge dominant players soon. I wonder who will it be?
