This week’s .travel newsletter highlights .travel press with an article from Travel Trade, “URL .travel Sees Uptick in Use,” future travels and participation at ETOA, WTM, and Travel Leisure Conference, and another New Face in .travel article featuring www.ElSalvador.travel

Here is an excerpt from “El Salvador Accelerates with .travel, www.ElSalvador.travel“…..

With beautiful beaches, many adventure and eco-tourism options, El Salvador is a gem to discover in Central America. Although relatively undiscovered and new to the global travel scene, El Salvador is quickly becoming a choice destination in Central America. As a way to jump start its place in the global tourism market, El Salvador introduced a new ministry of tourism project in 2005. As part of this focused project, El Salvador adopted www.ElSalvador.travel as is primary marketing message.

Knowing that a .travel name would automatically link the country as a tourism destination, El Salvador purchased its name in 2006, but has recently launched a new website, branding, and marketing efforts with ElSalvador.travel. Since the launch and other targeted efforts, the growth of tourism to El Salvador has been tremendous in 2008.
