9xb - Creating Online Success

Congratulations to one of our latest clients - www.theholidaylet.com. Just out of development and on general release, their website offers accomodation for rental througout the world.

With a clean interface the site certainly stands out in a marketplace where mainly sites are cluttered with gaudy graphics - the emphasis on easy navigation and clarity of purpose really coming through.

In terms of innovation, the site also makes great use of a so-called 'mashup' using Google Maps. Property owners can place the location of their property on a custom map, enabling potential visitors to see the actual physical location of properties they might want to rent - and their proximity to attractions and amenities.

This added depth of functionality and openness is increasingly coming to typify the new generation of websites. As companies look to create more innovative ways of presenting information than traditional database-driven sites, it is likely that the ideas such as these will be taking off in a big way over the next couple of years.
