Dublin, Ireland, July 05, 2007 – Facing the risk of the kind of information management that delivers one-sided details on local holiday facilities to travelers, the new electronic search guide travel-betterdeals.com provides its users with details on services and prices in the majority of common holiday destinations abroad. Especially the car hire offers receive special attention, as the site’s developers consider this sector as the most common area for typical scams.
Equipped with an extra category for car hire, the site bears a customized search mask where visitors can specify their destinations and other details concerning the desired car. The search results appear in a table that allows users to compare the presented offers with regard to the main characteristics and prices. As a result, travelers can start their search for offers in a convenient manner, even before they start travelling.
It had always been a risky decision to leave home without having booked a car for the destination abroad. Scams are common in the car hire sector, as travelers mostly cannot access information on market standards regarding service quality, safety advices, and prices. It can even be considered a common habit of car hire companies in certain tourist destinations to name different prices for tourists. In some cases, even all companies in one location follow this pricing strategy, as Rupert Miller, marketing manager at travel-betterdeals.com experienced by himself.
Miller had rented a car in Bali after having compared the prices of some the local companies’ offers. Following the obtained information, he would have got one of the cheapest offers, taking into account the accompanying services. Then, Miller met a group of compatriots that had already spent some months on the island. As Miller found out, the car this group had rented was not only less than half as expensive as his car, but it was also much better in quality and safety aspects.
Realizing that he must have become the victim of a corporate kind of manipulation, Miller spent the rest of his holidays, designing the concept for travel-betterdeals.com that he presented to his colleagues from the development department. As a result of the following development stage, travel-betterdeals.com was launched in the beginning of 2007. The listed car hire providers collaborate with local companies and, therefore, have access to the real market standards, which helps travelers to avoid being manipulated.
One of the most recent creations by the network of vertical sites www.betterdeals.co.uk, the Internet search guide www.travel-betterdeals.com forms an example of the network’s innovative consumer orientation. Active since the end of 2003, the network’s team of passionate Internet professionals pursues the goal of implementing an everyday guide to the constantly growing offer of electronically provided information, products, and services. In short, betterdeals.co.uk publicizes news on the Internet, serving markets that are as different as Italy, Spain, and France on the one hand and Germany, Holland, and the UK on the other. Resulting in 35 launches of new Internet portals in 2007 alone, betterdeals.co.uk is created and managed by Go Advertising Limited in Dublin, Ireland.
