A Healthy Social Media Site: HealthRanker.com47 lbs LOSTso farFebruary 18, 2008 by Israel Lagares | 24 comments
Having been health blogging for about 9 months now, I noticed that were was a huge void in the health news sector. Despite the multitude of social media news and voting sites available, there was not one dedicated to the health niche. I have become increasingly frustrated with the current “big dogs” in social media news sites, so I set upon making my own.
Enter HealthRanker.com. Health Ranker is a social media news and voting site that is dedicated to all things health. It silently launched a day ago and is already receiving positive feedback. The membership is increasing each day and so is the usage. You can sign up and submit health news in the various categories. You can also place our Rank it! button on your web site for others to Rank your health news.
So if you are into health news, information and education, head on over and become a part of something fresh and new. Still in beta, there are some minor bugs but the site is fully functional. I would love for some more beta users so that we can tweak the system. Feedback and suggestions are always welcome.
It’s rare when we actually have the chance to be a part of something like this in the early stages, but I am extending the invitation to you now. See ya there, feel free to add me as a friend.

Yeah bro that site looks wicked!
Keep up the awesome work, Digg for Health Niche, I like it
Thanks man, I tried real hard to make it look presentable.
Looks great, I’ve got a few articles submitted there already. Blogged about Healthranker as well
Good stuff. Hopefully this takes off. It could make you very rich!
I’m more concerned with having a place for health interested folks to submit info to.
Definitely a great site. There are sites that float around what this does, but nothing the same. This definitely fills a void. I can’t wait until it gets a larger audience to see what other sites are out there that have great info. Good luck with it.
Great stuff. How the hell you build a site like that???
Guess you got some more skills than weightlifting!
Great stuff, Will participate!
Hi Nico, hope the site is useful.
Does look good. I am starting my diet today, so it will definitely be used as a resource along with the blogs I already read on a daily.
Cool, I noticed you are already participating. Thanks.
trying to get some credits and get some views
it is a good idea though and a nice implementation. i couldn’t get the bookmart to work on IE (hence the link to the site itself), but firefox worked just fine.
Okay, I will work on getting that fixed.
Excellent idea! I’ll go sign up right now.
Thanks john, I made this for folks like us too!
what do you think about the P90X program. have you heard about it or tried it
I saw an infomercial on it a few months ago and immediately decided to try it. I planned on buying the program on ebay after I get within 20 lbs of my target weight.
Is it all workout or a diet as well. Most of the workout is online in various places.
You deserve to be there. So keep working hard. Very inspiring for health bloggers
That is a very wonderful site you got there! I have been looking for a site like this regarding health. Thanks a lot!
Thank you Edwin, I look forward to seeing you around.
Nice idea. You are absolutely right. There are a few health websites, but not one niche social media websites. Good luck with your new website (and goal).
Thanks Israel, it’s look great and suitable for my blog.
You are welcome.
This is a great idea! Congrats for thinking of it. I see Healthranker becoming very popular. I have signed up and am looking forward to participating.
