iVillage.com is a popular online community for women owned by iVillage, Inc..

iVillage.com is a huge resource site for women with a complete directory of topics covered that apply to everyday women such as health, relationships, pregnancy, and finances just to name a few. Here is a sitemap which will give you links to all of the web pages on iVillage.com.

You can also visit the main topics for the site directly using the links below:

Health
Diet
Pregnancy & Parenting
Beauty & Style
Home & Garden
Go Green
Food
Weddings
Love
Entertainment
Astrology
and
Games

Aside from the fact that iVillage is a major women’s resource, this website is also a premier social networking community exclusively for women.

The content provided on iVillage.com is extremely relevant to women everywhere which brings a huge amount of traffic to the site every day. Plus, you can subscribe to many of the iVillage topics by email if you like. The atmosphere of the website is friendly and comfortable, and socially inviting as well. By implementing a few social networking features into their website, iVillage.com has been able to create an instant online community for women.

The social networking side of the iVillage website is called iVillage Connect.



Over time many features have been added iVillage Connect, however the most popular feature seems to be the Message Boards. These boards are extremely active and with a wide range of topics being discussed every day. Plus you will find that you can browse other member’s profiles and connect with other people with similar interests. The profile is a little hard to use, although the site does seem to be making improvements on the member profile as time goes on. You can upload your own videos, keep a blog on your profile, and join a variety of user-created discussion groups too. Plus, you can also watch In The Loop with iVillage at the website which is an added bonus.



There are many women on iVillage Connect that are highly motivated to share and discuss different issues online.

I encourage you to take some time to visit the website and get involved in the social networking aspect of it. The information you get from iVillage is invaluable if you are a woman, and you can make some great new online friends at the website too!

Thank you for taking the time to read this post and I hope to see you online sometime, maybe at iVillage!
