Travelscream Expands Media Network and Distribution Platform

reach an online audience over 38 million monthly;

Price comparison widget offers new customer outreach platform


 

Vail, Colo. – September 24, 2009 Travelscream (www.travelscream.com), the leading provider of content distribution and social media marketing tools for the travel industry, continues in its commitment to develop the largest, most diverse travel deal distribution network by welcoming six new online publishing partners. 
 
The addition of these media channels increases Travelscream’s weekly email distribution by 250,000 and its aggregate monthly unique website audience by more than 13 million, to a total of over 38 million users.

To make it even easier to deliver deals to consumers, Travelscream has also expanded the platform on which travel offers can be delivered by unveiling a portable price comparison search widget.
 
“During a time when searching for deals is even more of a priority, we’ve established increased distribution opportunities for a greater range of suppliers,” said Travelscream CEO Tom Griffin.
 
New online distribution partners include travel search and discovery site Uptake.com, flight comparison search site Lowfares.com, travel inspiration site TopTrips.com, travel resource site GoNomad.com, luxury travel site PerfectEscapes.com and weather tracking site WeatherUndergound.com.  
 
Like all travel offers published within Travelscream’s Travel Deals Network, deals delivered to the new partners are contextually targeted to consumer behavior and lifestyle and the destination being researched to maximize relevance and consumer response. 
 
Travelscream is the only travel deals distribution solution that offers real-time campaign management, allowing travel suppliers to remain competitive by entering, updating and revising travel promotions 24/7.   The Travelscream platform also incorporates social marketing tools to encourage viral distribution and provide 'word-of-mouth' endorsement of all travel offers served.
 
While the expansion of the Travel Deals Network offers additional opportunities for suppliers to get their travel offers in front of an additional 13 million consumers, the new price comparison search widget provides a convenient platform to drive direct response sales.  
 
Travelers can take advantage of the one-stop shopping approach to researching all their travel needs while comparing prices from several suppliers at once.
 
“Many of our publishing partners have seen traffic to the ‘deals’ section of their websites virtually triple over the last year, so we know this type of content is in high demand,” added Griffin.  “Travelscream will continue to grow to provide our travel supplier clients with the most useful distribution platforms on the most relevant media channels.”
