History of AromaWeb
AromaWeb launched in mid-1997 as an informational website devoted to aromatherapy and essential oils. Its early growth confirmed the need for comprehensive, objective aromatherapy information online, and later that year, founder Wendy Robbins registered the AromaWeb.com domain name.
During its first years, AromaWeb did not accept advertising. Wendy developed and maintained the site as a labor of love, with the goal of creating a useful educational resource for those interested in aromatherapy.
In 1999, AromaWeb began offering business listings and banner advertising opportunities to help support the continued growth and operation of the site.
Since then, AromaWeb has grown considerably in both the depth and breadth of its content while remaining focused on its original purpose: providing objective, brand-neutral information about essential oils and holistic aromatherapy.
AromaWeb is especially grateful for the long-standing relationships it has developed within the aromatherapy community, including relationships with advertisers that date back to AromaWeb's earliest years.
