Making sense out of a Health Website!



From the well known like medindia and doctorndtv.com to the better but less known like goodhealthnyou.com & healthcaremagic....Everybody today is talking about selling Health on the net.How is your website better than mine..? My page rank is better, your Alexa rating is higher...

In Business, failure costs so much of money that nearly every satisfied company avoids risk of innovation. I may help you with facts but for creativity you will have to help yourself. Hold one finger first Are you and your website into Health products

or, Health content,

or, Medical Consultation.

Integral to every Web development project is the understanding of elements evolving within e-health. For most of the start up companies in India, business is an exciting time during which they are invigorated by the possibility of success and the fun of tackling new challenges.But where do they make mistakes:

1.Incorporation: While incorporating is an appropriate step for many businesses, it pays to wait until your business idea is well formed before taking the plunge.

2.Research: Arrange to speak to as many of your potential customers as possible. Questions to ask include: Would you buy my product or service? Where do you currently obtain this product or service? How much would you be willing to pay for it?

3.Infrastructure:A nice office and great computer equipment make many entrepreneurs feel as though their dream of entrepreneurism is coming true.Save here!

4.Designing: I have a flash template with animations and a wow look so what..if it requires the customer to download a plugin..He would rather cross the window..

5.Trust: Ever geard of emotional visitors..well if you are into internet that too into health..you should know them..They love to hear from you, Introduce your people, what all you do? where are you situated? Charity, Success and forth coming events..Are u coming on paperback, let them know?

6.Traffic Suppositories: To any health website to browse today, women visitors contribute to around 60% of the total value..wonder why? the website are made lame and easy.

7.What are the top 20 drugs browsed? ever wondered, any efforts for the same?Infertility, Diabetes, alternative medicine and Health insurance are the hottest in India.

What made WebMD and MayoClinic best websites?

Simple answer would be:

1. A one stop shop feeling.

2. Easy navigation, use and browsing.

3.Hon Code accredition.

4. Online support, Guides and newsletters.

Will come with more soon.....

PDAs in Healthcare -Passe or in Vogue

The PDA is a very small and portable, handheld computer, which has many more functions than a calculator, and the capacity to store information much like a Personal Computer (PC). Basic functionality available on most PDAs includes an address book, schedule, calendar, note pad, and e-mail. The PDA is convenient to use in clinical and field situations for quick data management, and the information can be synchronized with a PC . By means of a wireless network, information can be exchanged anytime from anywhere to and from a PDA, and the network will provide immediate access to all kinds of necessary clinical and administrative data . Health care professionals need access to information several times a day, and the PDA has the potential to provide this.

A New Dawn in Healthcare: How AI and LLMs Are Transforming Patient Care – A Story of Hope and Healing

  It was a crisp autumn morning when John, a 45-year-old father of two, first felt the sharp pain in his chest. Like many, he brushed it off as stress or indigestion. But when the pain persisted, his wife, Sarah, insisted he see a doctor. Little did John know that this visit would mark the beginning of a transformative journey—one that would redefine his understanding of healthcare and how technology could seamlessly blend into the patient experience. John’s story is not unique. Millions of patients navigate the labyrinth of healthcare systems every day, often feeling lost, overwhelmed, and underserved. But John’s experience was different. It was a glimpse into a new era of healthcare delivery, powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), generative AI, and advanced analytics—a world where technology works silently in the background, guiding every step of the care process with precision, empathy, and efficiency. The First Encounter: A Seamless Entry into Care When John walked into his ...

The real India- mHealth and beyond ICT

After spending 20 days on-ground with PHCs and while supporting some of the major initiatives in India, I was tempted to do some cut-throat analysis. I realized that 25% of the total Income generated in India is in the hands of mere 100 rich families. What's more! this huge gap is increasing day by day. After independence, the valley has only widened up between the rich and the poor and the growth that we envisage is still miles away from the hands of a common man. Photograph courtesy @ Shashwat Nagpal Over 72%  (that would be over 620 million) of India’s population lives in its 638,588 villages. It is hard to believe but in India, a common man is most indebted to healthcare after dowry. Most families earn less than $1/day and some of the major initiatives by NGOs suffer as there is so much distrust about Government policies and efforts in the country. In villages, healthcare in India still starts from Security, clean drinking water, better sanitation facilities a...
