|
|
NEW YORK, NY - December 9 -- Leading travel website OneTravel, its affiliate 11thHourVacations.com and TripleHop Technologies, a provider of search and recommendation software for enterprises and Web sites, released numbers today showing that the portion of 11thHourVacations' Web site powered by TripleHop has been consistently recording, over the last six months, a conversion rate (or “look-to-book ratio”) two to three times higher than other portions of OneTravel and 11thHourVacations’ Web sites.
Consequently, 11thhourvacations has decided to renew its license and give an expanded presence to TripleHop’s technology. Mike Putman, president of 11thHourVacations, commented Those conversion numbers are impressive and make the ROI case for this technology a no-brainer. As a result, we just made the decision to renew and expand our license, and we look forward to continuing our profitable relationship with TripleHop.
We are very pleased with the numbers released today as they continue to demonstrate the efficiency and the return on investment delivered by our software products, said Renaud Laplanche, CEO of TripleHop Technologies. Whether in an enterprise context or on a Web site, our software lets users find the most relevant information faster.”
