Content management system for Ski Holiday Company
The Skiactivity project came to us at very short notice and at a time when the Ski holiday season had just started. However, we were up to the task so we set about making things right.
To say this was a huge task would be an understatement – the client had resorts covering the whole European ski area and a large number of North American resorts.
On inspection of their existing site, it was clear that they had no means of updating holidays or accommodation details, therefore we had to treat the project as a complete new build.
We developed a backend content management system so that the clients could start updating availability charts and adjusting dates and prices shown on the site.
Our content management system allowed the Skiactivity staff to update special offers, availability and accommodation specifications using a backend browser based administration system.
The 2001/2002 season saw a major change in the site’s progress with the number of visitors to the site going from a few thousand to over 16,000 unique visitors within a few weeks.
The site took around eight weeks to build incorporating 240 properties with holiday combinations approaching several thousand.
Breeze Media delivered a solution which prevented a loss in online bookings.
