North Carolina (October 21, 1999) � About.com�s Hotels Web site dedicated
to helping Web surfers find the best travel locations and accommodations
that meet their needs as well as their budget has expanded its coverage.
Formerly called Elegant Resorts, Hotels, and Inns, the Site has been renamed
Hotels/Resorts/Inns to reflect the increased scope of finding the best
lodging tips, advice and accommodations on the Web.
The strength of Hotels/Resorts/Inns is its breadth of listings and links. The site offers a diverse collection of NetLinks, including economy and budget properties, chains, and roadside motels, as well as upscale resorts and inns. Consequently, webmasters and lodging/accommodation representatives will find Hotels/Resorts/Inns affords greater opportunities for exposure. Accommodations worldwide are organized geographically and by type. Geographic links are broken into price categories. Specialized categories are added as the need arises. Jana Jones, Hotels Guide at About.com, explains, �Nothing has changed on the site, nothing has been removed. But now it provides visitors with more listings, more categories, and more avenues to explore when determining the best lodging options.� �The name change reflects a commitment to making Hotels/Resorts/Inns the best general accommodation site on the World Wide Web,� she adds. �Repeat visitors already think of it as the Web�s most comprehensive site for lodging information.� In addition to its listings and links, Hotels / Resorts / Inns also offers fresh travel features, a user forum, a chat room, and a free email newsletter. About.com (Nasdaq: BOUT) is the leading network of niche vertical sites for users and marketers. |
