LoveHealz.com plans to launch its health-related online social-networking community within the week, as final development on the innovative relationship Web site nears completion.
“LoveHealz.com has been designed as a place for everyone who faces difficult health issues to come together to meet others who are confronting similar obstacles – for the purpose of finding friendship, support, and love,” said Benny Powell, the President of LoveHealz.com and the creator of the site. Powell, whose previous e-commerce and technology experience includes priceline.com (NASDAQ:PCLN) and IBM (NYSE:IBM), went on to add, “At LoveHealz.com it’s not about focusing on the issues people face, but rather removing them as an obstacle as they interact and live their lives.”
The overriding goal of LoveHealz.com is to remove health issues from its members’ “relationship equations.” “By creating 12 independent communities devoted to specific medical backgrounds, we’ve given our LoveHealz.com members an online place to truly be themselves as they connect to others who understand what they’re going through,” said Powell. “And no matter what kind of relationships our members want – be it friendships, finding information from people in their community, or even making a romantic connection – we are proud to offer a safe place where health concerns ultimately lead to healthy relationships.”
Healthy relationships are supported by the services offered by LoveHealz.com, which include Web 2.0 technologies such as member forums, an interactive personality survey, chat capability, private messaging, and graphic “Winks.” Along with the ability to find friends, LoveHealz.com will soon offer medical content to its members from medical institutions and leading physicians who will interact with members to provide expert advice.
LoveHealz.com takes its support of its members to even greater heights through the LoveHealz Foundation (www.LoveHealz.org), a non-profit organization founded to distribute a portion of LoveHealz.com profits to charitable organizations devoted to research, education, prevention, and the cure of the very conditions represented on LoveHealz.com.
LoveHealz.com will offer a no-risk free 30-day membership to all new members after launch, with reduced pricing for all new subscribers who take advantage of the LoveHealz.com launch offer.
LoveHealz.com will be supporting the site with massive media coverage, beginning with an expected $100 million television, radio, internet and print campaign. The final round of financing is being obtained, as it ramps up for the imminent soft launch within the week. This intense marketing effort should help bolster its membership base as well as vastly increase the charitable monies being generated by the venture.
