WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE ARE
OFFERING:
Special Offer Holidays is
a British owned UK travel domain
name and website publishing
group. We own over 20 leading
travel domain names and websites
on
Sri Lanka (See Left)
We invite international travel
agents, tour operators and local
Sri Lanka hotel groups to
sponsor these unique travel
websites on Sri Lanka.
BACKGROUND:
Developed over a decade, the
sites are based on the personal
experience of our UK directors
who escape the British winter to
Sri Lanka for 4 months every
year and who consequently have
repeatedly stayed at the
properties featured on these
sites. Every property has
been reviewed based in
accordance with the UK company’s
policy of “Visit, Stay Overnight
at and Inspect before featuring
and recommending” policy.
TARGET MARKET:
These Sri Lanka websites are
targeted at the top end of
the
UK and European travel market
and attract enquiries from the type of segments that can
afford to stay at deluxe 4 star,
5 star and boutique hotels. Our
clients have stayed at Amangalla,
Amanwella, Lighthouse Hotel and
other luxury hotels. They can
also afford Sri Lanka Air Tours.
MARKETING CAPABILITY AND REACH:
They are search engine optimised
and thus many rank well on
leading search engines including
Google. Sri Lanka Weddings
Co UK ranks high on the keyword
Sri Lanka Weddings.
The core of their
marketing capability is their
access to the past enquiries and
past customer database of the
parent website;
www.businessclassflights.com
We also have a database of 5000+
past enquiries for Sri Lanka and
Maldives
Sponsorship Opportunities:
(1)
Leasing - Sponsorship of the
entire site
and ownership of all travel
enquiries plus the ability to
insert the sponsor’s contact
details
(2)
Sponsorship of individual pages
relating to a particular
property,
with the ability to insert
sponsor’s contact details on
specified pages only, with
access to enquiries only for the
specified property
(3)
Purchase of general enquiries
from the site
(4)
Purchase of property related
enquiries, for answering direct
to the enquirer.
(5)
Tailor made sponsorship
– website leasing.
EDITORIAL INDEPENDENCE AND
CREDIBILITY:
Individual hotel reviews are
written completely independently
of the sponsor. The websites
have credibility not only with FITs in the UK but also travel
agents, who rely on the reviews
of individual properties and
destinations because of their
fiercely safeguarded
independence.
The policy of
the travel business is to retain
its editorial independence at
all costs, as all
recommendations are based on
personal experience.
As a UK travel business, our
primary market is that of
business class flights and
luxury travel, mainly to the USA
and South Africa. Although we
have a sales office in London
selling up market travel, we are
not competitive on price in the
Sri Lankan market which is a
secondary niche travel market to
us. As such we have
taken a policy decision not to
actively sell Sri Lanka as a
travel destination ourselves
through our own London office
but to work in association with
select partners.
As a result we have no objection
to passing our enquiries for
accommodation and travel in Sri
Lanka to hotel groups and
qualified travel agents within
and outside the company, for
answering and effecting bookings
directly.
Special Offer Holidays Com is a
UK organisation.
Payment for sponsorship has to
be made in GBP, USD, EURO or
YEN. The contractual
relationship is with a UK
business owned by British
citizens. Although the sites are
on Sri Lanka, as a UK business
we regret we cannot accept
payments in local currency.
The
SRI LANKA TRAVEL WEBSITES
for which we invite sponsorship
proposals are shown on the left.
