In addition, TIG Global will create promotional and location-driven landing pages (e.g., http://www.LuxuryResorts.com/PuertoRico) to drive qualified traffic and generate cost-effective cross-sell opportunities for the LXR collection.   

�LXR has an expert-level understanding of the power of the online distribution channel,� said Paul Peddrick, senior vice president of web services for TIG Global. �TIG Global is delighted to combine our industry-leading design and marketing expertise in service of a growing list of some of the finest hospitality assets in the world.�
