Medical and health-related professional need to be aware of their medical website/weblog design. Especially for people who are in healthcare marketing environment. Internet isn’t a one-fits-all marketplace anymore. There are a lot of competition. Patients and health consumers often 'more knowledgeable' than the doctor itself. They do some 'research' on Google, Yahoo or MSN search engines. Online health seekers are growing as fast as medical technology. So do medical websites/weblogs. Website (especially weblog) is one of the most profitable marketing channel. Having your own physician website can help you generate more new patients. But that is not the main purpose. The main idea is how to deliver health information on the Internet. Online Internet marketing professional will suggest you to design, build & market consumer/search engine friendly website/weblog.

These points make medical website/weblog different from regular web design:

• authority
• contactable
• updated content
• advertising/funding policy
• disclaimer

There is no wrong to build content-based SEO, meta tags and keywords optimized, viral marketing or click-oriented online advertising. Give your visitors a knowledge of your advertising or funding policy. Put a label on your advertorial or editorial contents. Although consumers found the same symptoms or signs on the web, they have to visit their physician for sure. The disclaimer is needed. More useful if your medical website/weblog use web standard rules. HTML/XHTML standard compliances and accessibilities.
