Ã.‚¬. Real Guest Reviews
Ã.‚¬. Destination Guides With Trip Sharing
Ã.‚¬. Mobile-Optimized Web Pages

Real Guest Reviews keep shoppers on your site
Real Guest Reviews enable potential guests to view actual Ã.‚¬Ëœfeatured guest reviews' from major travel websites right on a hotel's home page without using multiple searches. Shoppers can also view more details within the hotel website, keeping them engaged on the property site. Using the Hospitality Toolkit, reviews are automatically put into a queue for the hotel's review. The property can quickly select reviews to post on its website with just one click. For a complete assessment of a hotel's online presence, TravelCLICK also provides SearchVIEW, a comprehensive reputation management system. SearchVIEW proactively monitors a property's web presence and online marketing effectiveness on top search engines, meta travel search sites, and Internet guest comment channels for more effective online strategies and faster responses to guest issues.
Destination Guides enrich property sites
TravelCLICK's Destination Guides with Trip Sharing engage visitors to keep them on the property's website longer, increasing booking profitability by providing valuable information and opportunities for social media trip sharing. The Destination Guides are comprehensive and completely integrated into the hotel's website developed on TravelCLICK's Hospitality Toolkit. The guides are pre-populated and regularly updated to make implementation fast and simple. Hoteliers can customize the guide as much as they want. Guests can submit their trip favorites in any category. The 200+ page guides, along with regularly updated trip-sharing posts, make a hotel's website much more attractive to search engines, thus increasing rankings.
Mobile-Optimized Web pages reach travelers on the move
TravelCLICK's Mobile-Optimized Web pages are designed to provide key information to both business and leisure travelers on smart phone devices, such as Palms and BlackBerrys. HTML-based Mobile-Optimized Web pages offer on-the-go help for users such as hotel address, contact information, maps, and directions through an http://mobile.hotelname.com URL.
RSS Feed Manager keeps best guests loyal
With the RSS Manager, guests sign up to receive the latest news and promotions via email---special offers, new packages, or special events are distributed instantly worldwide. Plus, hoteliers can use this feature to ensure the press is up to date on the hotel's latest news. The RSS Manager empowers RSS feeds for applications across the entire Hospitality Toolkit platform such as Specials, Packages and Press Releases.
