Mobile Website for Tortola BVI Launched at Tortola.mobi

Tortola, Virgin Islands, British, April 07, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Tourists, business travelers and residents of the beautiful island of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands now have easy access to local information on their cell phones or other mobile devices. The mobile website Tortola.mobi provides a wealth of relevant and up-to-date information about local accommodations, restaurants, nightlife, shopping, real estate agents, weddings, boating/watersports, transportation and more.

Tortola.mobi can be accessed by users no matter where they are as long as they have a web-enabled cell phone. Most travelers to Tortola will not bring their laptop or desktop computer, so their cell phone will be their only link to the internet.

Local businesses can quickly and easily list their business for free on Tortola.mobi. Simply go to Tortola.mobi, click on the signup link on the home page, and start creating a personalized “Mobi-Page.”

There is no cost for a standard Mobi-Page, which includes a company’s address, “one-click” phone number and “one-click” e-mail address, a link to its own mobile website, a link to a map, one picture and up to 2,000 characters to describe its business.

A premium Mobi-Page is only $10 per month and includes everything in a standard Mobi-Page, except a company can add seven pictures and up to 5,000 characters to describe its business. Premium Mobi-Pages are also given preferential placement on Tortola.mobi in order to get even more visits from potential customers.

Because each company is in control of all of the information on its Mobi-Page, it can tailor its message however it sees fit with our simple-to-use interface. There are no limits to when or how often a company can change or update its Mobi-Page. Companies can add new pictures, announce new products, and tell customers about upcoming sales, hotel room promotions, menu specials, or anything else related to their business. All changes are updated immediately, so there is no lag time for customers. This is a vast improvement over the typical printed “visitor guide” which is only available in limited quantities at certain locations, and cannot be updated until the next version comes out.

With “one-click” phone numbers and e-mail addresses, customers are just a single touch away from contacting Tortola businesses. No more typing lengthy phone numbers or e-mail addresses—with just one click, the user will be dialing a phone number or sending an e-mail. The tremendous ease of connecting with customers is just one of the benefits to creating a Mobi-Page on Tortola.mobi.

Tortola.mobi is one of an increasing number of travel and tourism companies who use a ‘.mobi’ website, including the American Automobile Association (AAA), Amtrak, Air France, Hilton, KLM, Marriott, Priceline, SAS, Spanair, The Weather Channel, Travelocity and ZAGAT.
