BATH GETS A NEW IMAGE WITH VisitBath.co.uk RE-LAUNCH
08/01/2010
Bath Tourism Plus has re-launched the official tourism website for Bath and the surrounding area , www.visitbath.co.uk , following a complete design makeover, with sophisticated new features and even more visitor information.
The new website provides a complete guide for holiday-makers and useful information for local residents. Users can find out about things to see and do, where to eat out, shops that can’t be missed, as well as a number of other information services including a what’s on guide featuring events, festivals and exhibitions.
A number of new developments have been added which not only enhance the look of the website but also its functionality. Navigation across the site has improved with easy-to-use menus, a number of new search options, and a straight forward accommodation booking system allowing users to tailor their search and refine results to their precise requirements. Striking images of Bath and the surrounding countryside and other visual aids have been introduced with a new interactive map providing information on what to see nearby highlighting key attractions such as Stonehenge, Wells, Glastonbury and the Cotswolds.
Samantha Edson from Bath Tourism Plus has been busy putting together the new website and comments, “We wanted to develop a more visually striking and engaging website that would deliver more business to our members and at the same time provide an even better information service for users of visitbath.co.uk”.
Robin Bischert chief executive of Bath Tourism Plus says, “Last year the visitbath.co.uk website received over 1.2 million unique users. As more people than ever are using the internet to arrange their holidays and leisure time, we felt that a new website with a modern design was imperative to provide visitors and residents with the very best service possible. The new website contains lots of stunning photography which really helps to bring it to life and will hopefully encourage visitors to the city and surrounding area.”
