MARCH 2, 2017—Statehood Media today launched a new digital strategy across its portfolio to facilitate trip planning and booking of lodging properties through its websites and in coordination with Booking.com, a global leader in online accommodations.
The new mobile-friendly websites feature a sophisticated look and inspired travel content with simple navigation that facilitates the booking of your next trip.
“Our new digital properties take travel-planning in the Pacific Northwest to the next level,” said Statehood Media chief content officer Kevin Max. “These new websites make it simple for anyone to find inspired adventure and then act on them. We are constantly innovating to bring consumers closer to their travel aspirations.”
A key piece in the new digital strategy is the integration of Booking.com’s online booking tool. Statehood Media chose the premier online lodging booking service, Booking.com, as its accommodation fulfillment partner.
“We are delighted to have partnered with Statehood Media to help increase our footprint in Oregon and Washington by providing the broadest selection of properties to our global guests,” said Rob Marshall and Ryan Kolnick, Booking.com business development team.
Throughout Statehood Media websites, users will find Booking.com’s interface in the right sidebar. “Booking.com is an intuitive tool that allows our audience to act on their passions for travel in a more convenient way,” Max said. “We hope this leads to more people exploring and booking the next trip on their bucket list.”
