Medical News Feeds for Your Website

Providing consumer health information and medical news is an effective method for increasing traffic on your website. Regularly changing content attracts search engines and increases the visibility of your website on the Internet. With higher visibility, you can expect to attract increasing numbers of visitors wishing to stay informed about developments in your specialty area.

ifXnews provides medical news channels for your website. These channels serve as an authoritative source for consumer information about your specialty and can be presented as an updating column on your site or made available for syndication to your customers through RSS.

What is RSS?

RSS is a format for presenting frequently updated information on the Internet. It allows people to remain up to date with changes on websites that interest them without needing to visit the website.

Originally called Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91), subsequent versions of RSS were called RDF Site Summary (RSS 1.0 and RSS 0.90) and, more recently, Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0).

With most web browsers and email systems including support for aggregating RSS feeds, the number of people relying on this technology to stay informed continues to grow. Some industry analysts estimate the number of RSS users doubles about every five months.

What we provide

IfXnews editors constantly monitor hundreds of news outlets from around the world. News items related to general health and specialty practice are summarized into consumer oriented news briefs and placed into appropriate channels. Channels are updated throughout the day and may be made available instantly or at predetermined intervals depending on the level of your subscription.

By adding a few lines of code to your website, you can have the feeds display instantly or they can be downloaded and hosted on your site. IfXnews' technical staff can help you determine the best method for presenting news feeds based on your website and your technical resources.
