Only a year after its launch, Everyday Health, which is operated by Waterfront Media, the largest privately held online health company, reports that year to year traffic has increased over four hundred percent. According to December comScore Media Metrix traffic figures released this week, Everyday Health received more than 12 million unique visitors, making it the second largest online health property for the fourth straight month.

December's usage figures show Everyday Health attracted more unique visitors than large health information aggregators like Revolution Health Network, AOL Health and Yahoo! Health. The new comScore numbers reinforce a recent independent study by Manhattan Research, LLC, which found that a higher percentage of people visit Everyday Health's flagship site, EverydayHealth. com, on a daily basis than any other health online health site.
"Everyday Health's entry into the marketplace is exciting for both consumers and advertisers," said Ben Wolin, Waterfront Media's CEO. "We appreciate the fact that millions of consumers regularly choose Everyday Health sites, including our flagship site, EverydayHealth. com, whose mission is to help users proactively manage their conditions with our unique tools, expert content, and supportive communities.
