Please read these guidelines carefully, as submitting your site to the wrong category will most likely prevent your site from getting listed.

Sites that are good candidates for Ask an Expert: Medicine and Health will have the following characteristics:
1. An easily accessible interface for users to submit their questions.
2. Medical experts who will answer the question.

Sites that will not be accepted to the Medicine and Health category:
1. Sites that provide information, but not directly in response to user questions.
2. Site that provide answers to questions in many topics.
3. Sites that provide answers or advice for a fee.
4. Sites that are promoting a specific business.

The Ask an Expert: Medicine and Health category is for websites that allow users to submit their own questions for answers. While archives of answers and information are useful, in order to get listed in this category, there must be a live human answering questions, not just a search engine or computer.

In addition, this category is for sites that provide this human service free of charge. Answers that are available for a fee should be listed in Ask an Expert: For a Fee. Sites for individual health practices or practitioners offering to answer submitted questions (whether for a fee or not) belong in Health: Services: On-line Health Consulting. Forums also are not appropriate for this category, and should be submitted to the relevant subject category, as they are a different type of site and have a different function.

Again, we ONLY want web sites where you can submit questions to a pool of medical experts and have them supply an answer.
