Diamond Resorts International�s decision to select ICE Portal as their content management and distribution partner is consistent with the choice made by other major hotel brands, including Sheraton, Sandals, Ocean Properties, World Hotels, and the Interstate Hotels. With more and more travelers choosing to research and book trips online, the need to display rich content on as many major travel sites and search engines as possible is clearly evident.

In addition to receiving unparalleled production and distribution services, Diamond Resorts International will also have access to ICE�s intuitive and user-friendly Content Management System (CMS).  ICE�s CMS system allows hotels to easily view and manage their content and obtain reports on content distribution.  Hotel representatives using ICE�s CMS system will also be able to update photos, have their property indexed by Google, turn seasonal images on and off, and rearrange the order that their content appears on the digital brochure.
Hoteliers that choose ICE Portal for their rich content production also get a custom-branded digital brochure of their property that can be created using photos, virtual tours, web shows, and information. This digital brochure is then made available to thousands of third-party travel websites, including Orbitz, Travelocity, Priceline, and Google.  Properties with updated virtual tours also have the option of appearing on Expedia.

ICE Portal�s President Henry Woodman notes, �ICE is a one-stop shop for hotels to enhance their visibility online and dramatically improve their look-to-book ratios. The fact that they can customize and manage their content in multiple languages is an added bonus.�
