www.WiZZ.travel directory….2,000 sites and growing is our featured, “New Faces in .travel” article. WiZZ.travel is a worldwide travel directory which, unlike many other travel listings, is focuses on the destinations travelers want to visit. With 2,000 sites and growing, www.WiZZ.travel is first organized by continent, then region, and finally a chosen destination in order to be more useful to travel searchers.

The idea to adopt www.WiZZ.travel began as a way to enhance an already existing worldwide travel guide, WiZZ.to, while providing further benefits to its travel industry partners. In fact, since the launch of the new WiZZ.travel domain, the directory has been a success and has grown to nearly 2,000 listings.

Progress report comments on the results post-travels. .travel is witnessing increased growth of .travel domain name sales because of the increased visibility through participation at trade shows, significant e-marketing, press coverage, and the work of our Tralliance Partners.

Tralliance Experience a “Fantas-Tico” EXPOTUR 2008

As mentioned in the title, the .travel team was fortunate to experience Costa Rica’s beauty and the Tico hospitality last week during EXPOTUR.

As you may know, Tico or Tica is the nickname of the people of Costa Rica and it is to our new and old Tico friends that we owe many thanks for the pleasant event.

The 4-day exposition was kicked off on the May 13 with a welcome speech from the President of ACOPROT, Carlos Lizama, followed by the distinguished Minister of Tourism, Carlos Ricardo Benavides, and Vice President of Costa Rica, Laura Chincilla. All three addressed Costa Rica’s strong commitment to sustainable tourism as well as its goal to become carbon neutral by 2012.

In the following days, Edward A. Cespedes, President and CEO of Tralliance, spoke at two invitation-only events addressing the attendees of EXPOTUR regarding .travel, its progress, and the future of the travel and tourism industry on the Internet. Both presentations ended with much discussion from the audience about the benefits of .travel, search engine optimization, and the costs of registering a .travel domain name. Click here for video

Taking their combined interest in travel, the Waldens formed www.OnTrackTravel.travvel to offer vacations that are experiences rather than just destinations.

As the featured progress report, the .travel team announced, “Tralliance Experiences a Fantas-TICO EXPOTUR 2008″. During the team’s time in Costa Rica it was evident that Costa Rica and the travel and tourism industry are moving towards .travel.
