Verywell is a website providing health and wellness information by health professionals. It was launched on 26 April 2016 as a media property of About.com (now Dotdash Meredith) and its first standalone brand.
As of March 2017, it reached 17 million United States each month.
By May 2017, About.com had transformed into Dotdash, an umbrella media brand of six distinct and specialized vertical sites ("content destinations"). While Verywell was about health, the others were about travel, learning, money management, home decorating, and technology.
The website has split into four sites: Verywell Health (the main domain), Verywell Fit, Verywell Family, and Verywell Mind, focusing mainly on psychology.
In August 2024, the Verywell Family site was shut down, with a recommendation to visit another Dotdash Meredith site, Parents.com.
The site has a multiplatform audience, which also includes traffic from DailyBurn and Cleveland Clinic. It is mostly search-dependent, as 70 percent of its monthly desktop traffic comes from search results. Verywell claims that 15 percent of its traffic is direct, an increase compared to the period when its content was part of About.com (8 percent).
