2000 MAR 19 - (NewsRx.com) --
The $30 million health news giveaway announced by NewsRx.com at www.NewsRx.com resulted in an instantaneous onrush.
"We announced the giveaway at 7:30 a.m. Traffic peaked immediately and by 8:00 a.m. the site was overwhelmed. By 9:30 a.m. we re-routed traffic to handle the enormous demand. To some users, the site appeared to have crashed. In reality, there was just unimaginable traffic," said NewsRx.com CEO C.W. Henderson. "We were pleasingly crunched!"
"This confirmed the pent-up demand for health news as indicated by our market research. Web users looking for health information demand variety, quality, depth, and perception in medical news, not just filler headlines," Henderson said.
The company is giving away $30 million in consumer and professional health wire access; the offer expires March 27, 2000. The branding campaign started February 22, 2000, with morning and afternoon announcements throughout the Web at major Internet portals and search engines, including Yahoo (YHOO), CBS MarketWatch (MKTW), and Northern Light.
Within minutes, http://www.NewsRx.com was hit by thousands of Internet users confirming their free health newswire. At NewsRx.com, users can select from hundreds of original daily news reports on almost any niche topic. The news is then stored in their personal folders at the site, or delivered directly to the user by e-mail.
NewsRx.com also licenses its health, medical, and biotech news content to other Web sites and corporate Intranets.
The company unveiled its designation as the Official Online News Sponsor of the approaching eHealthcareWorld 2000 conference in Las Vegas.
"We are thrilled to have been selected for this strategic alliance with the largest e-health conference, anticipating over 6,000 participants May 1-3, 2000," Henderson said. Complete conference information is available at http://www.eHealthcareWorld.com.
eHealthcareWorld is produced and managed by eMarketWorld, an Internet Capital Group (ICGE) partner company. Another eHealthcareWorld conference will be held this year from December 5-7, 2000, at the Jacob K. Javits Center in New York.
"We will provide comprehensive coverage using our medical reporters and our proprietary technology. The online conference news will reach a global audience linked from eHealthcareWorld.com and NewsRx.com," Henderson said.
"NewsRx.com produces and archives more original health, medical, and biotech news than any other site on the Web," asserted Henderson. "Our company is the largest news source for the largest industry on earth. The $1.2 trillion health industry is projected to grow to $2 trillion by 2005," he said.
