Why Advertise at NoBlood.org?

Each month tens of thousands come to NoBlood to discover the advantages of transfusion alternatives and blood management (TABM) in medicine and surgery. Thousands of registered users and health care professionals visit and participate in thousands of TABM-related discussions. Articles covering some of the TABM-related techniques and devices such as Erythropoietin (EPO), Acute_Normovolemic_Hemodilution (ANH), Intraoperative_blood_salvage (Cell Salvage), Epidural_Blood_Patch and others are moderated by world-renowned physicians and researchers.

Probably the best reason to advertise on NoBlood.org is because it produces results. Note what some of our sponsors are saying:

  • Elizabeth Crum, Coordinator at Hackensack University Medical Center said: "I am pleased to report that we have gotten several telephone inquiries and e-mails (including from overseas), and subsequent patients who say they saw our facility on NoBlood.org! It’s amazing what interest this seemingly small amount of advertising is capable of generating."
  • Melvin Satterfield, Program Administrator at Atlanta Medical Center said: "Advertising on NoBlood.org has more than paid for itself."

If your company provides TABM products or services, you would be hard pressed to find a more cost-effective method to reach this audience.

Who Are Visiting NoBlood.org?

We can gain insight into the background of NoBlood.org visitors from the type of search terms they use to find NoBlood.org. Please take a look at the following sampling of search terms that brought visitors to NoBlood.org during the month of July 2008. Click on any of the following links for examples of the strong position held by NoBlood.org.

Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution* Alternative To Blood Transfusion Argon Beam Coagulator
Artificial Albumin* Bloodless surgery Blood Alternatives
Blood Conservation Blood Fractions* Blood Management
Blood Patch* Blood Plasma Substitutes* Blood Product Alternatives

Recombinant Albumin* Red Cell Tagging* Spinal blood patch*
Substitute for blood plasma* Thrombocytopenia And Leukemia Thrombogen
Transfusion Alternatives Transfusion Trigger Trendelenburg Shock
Volume Replacement* Wound Healing Factors

What these terms have in common is that they are all found on the FIRST PAGE when searching Google! Those that are in bold type with asterisks were in the FIRST POSITION on the first page of Google!!! A recent report by the Atlas Institute titled How Important is the Pole Position? reaffirms the power of position. Having the first position on Google provides the greatest number of "conversions" (number of people who follow the link). "In the report’s example, if the relative conversion rate is 10 percent for position one on Google, position two will generate only a 9.1 percent relative conversion rate. Though position two generates a high conversion rate compared to position one, the second position receives only 58.9 percent of click volume. When you multiply the lower conversion rate by the click volume, the conversion potential is illustrated in 54.5 percent fewer conversions." Your mileage may vary depending how Google ‘caches’ their indexes in your part of the world. Those of you who are familiar with the science of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) no doubt appreciate the challenge and value of achieving such strong positioning. This basically demonstrates that NoBlood.org is accomplishing a key objective in its mission to advance knowledge and awareness of transfusion alternatives and blood management (TABM) otherwise known as bloodless medicine and surgery.

NoBlood Mobile beta

NoBlood Mobile (beta) is a new service that opens the way for millions who rely on web-enabled mobile-phone-friendly devices to quickly find TABM-related resources. There is not a faster way to locate TABM hospitals, healthcare professionals and other resources from a mobile devices.

Reach Out To Your Target Market

If your company provides TABM-related products or services, it would be difficult to find a more cost-effective method to reach your targeted audience.

There is a growing trend for patients seeking quality health care to research their options on the web. Much of the traffic arriving at NoBlood.org results from searches involving terms not directly TABM-related. While searching general medical and surgical terms people often discover that they can obtain quality healthcare without the use of blood.

These prospective patients are thus introduced to hospitals, treatments and other resources available in their local area.

We have introduced a number of opportunities for companies that provide TABM-related products and services. Two key avenues that are available are our Directory Listings and Pixel Pages.

NoBlood does not make any claim or distinction as to the level of skill, experience, or competency of the institutions offering these services. Since there is currently no set standard of care regulated or recognized for hospitals that offer what are commonly referred to as bloodless, transfusion-free, blood conservation or blood management services, this list is provided merely as a service to the public based on the claim of the institutions mentioned and nothing more. As a potential patient and consumer, each individual should contact the facility of their choice and interview the prospective physicians and healthcare providers to determine whether they satisfy his or her needs in the stated specialty or not.

In these Directories, we provide for publishing two levels of detail, Standard and Premium Hospital Listings.

Pixel Pages

Publishing a collage of logos and images on a web page was popularized by the work of a young man looking to finance his college education by creating a webpage called Million Dollar Homepage. Each block of images links to a website.

Based on this concept, NoBlood.org's Pixels Pages are an interesting way for companies and individuals to participate in drawing attention to the world of TABM-related products and services.
