(PRWEB) January 13, 2000
ASHEVILLE, N. C., Jan. 11 -- DoctorDirectory. com, Inc., the world's most complete and user-friendly physician directory, has unveiled a SpecialtyLink feature which offers niche web site publishers targeted entry by medical specialty into the listing ofmore than 500,000 physicians nationwide.
DoctorDirectory. com's new SpecialtyLink feature provides a valuable resource to existing publishers of health-related and other topical sites by allowing their users to conveniently access the physician directory information at one or more of the 200 medical specialty levels. For instance, a women's health site could offer the directory of OBGYN physicians; a children's or family site could use the Pediatrics specialty directory; a site related to breast cancer could provide their users with the directory for Oncology and OBGYN.
More than 1,300 websites are now linking to the Company's health provider directories to improve their site's content and SpecialtyLink will make it even more convenient for users to find the information they seek. It's easy to link under the program: Webmasters only have to 1) click downto the specialty of their choice at DoctorDirectory. com, 2) copy the URLlisted in the address field of their browser of their targeted market in the directory, and 3) paste that URL on their Web Site, labeled with the title of their choosing, thereby creating a targeted direct SpecialtyLink physician search tool from their page. Users then begin their search at the targeted level of DoctorDirectory. com, but can still back up for a general search or to switch specialties at will if required. User will also be able to access information from the Company's HospitalDirectory. com and HealthPlanDirectory. com properties through the link to DoctorDirectory. com.
Webmasters and medical product sites may also take advantage of DoctorDirectory. com's co-branding opportunities. These co-branded directories are customized links that maintain the look and feel of the local sites, with their font, size and color, while offering the services of DoctorDirectory. com's comprehensive healthcare provider directories.

The SpecialtyLink tool improves their content, as well as their users' experience," said David K. Barker, CEO.
