Co-operative Projects in Travel Technology

ABTECH Online Marketing Programme for Travel Companies

The ABTECH Online Marketing Programme is a co-operative project for travel arrangers based in the UK and Ireland. It aims to help travel companies to adapt and refine their business models to the extent necessary for them to prosper, through a developing programme of activities.

Phase I of the Programme started close to home. Because of the ABTECH project's association with ABTA, it was important to help ABTA members to get the most out of abta.com ABTA's online consumer channel.

ABTECH has been working with a group of ABTA Members to help them get their fair share of the 1 million plus annual click throughs to Member sites from the abta.com listings, offers and enewsletters.

This scheme works by establishing a baseline of click-through traffic and then working with the Member concerned to increase this level.         request more details here >>>

Phase II will be concerned with benchmarking Google Analytics metrics. Like it or not Google is setting the pace in the development of online marketing. After their purchase of Urchin they have embarked on a process of integrating Urchin's site stats capability with Google's online advertising projects AdWords and AdSense.

The results have been staggering - an unprecedented insight into the behaviour of online consumers as they make their way around your sites.

Unfortunately, at present, the metrics that GA produces can only be compared with your own performance over time. The aim of the Phase II project is to allow travel companies to compare their performance with their peers.
