The site is completely responsive, which means it reacts to the device it's being viewed on. According to Paul Kerr, CEO for SLH, “We knew it was time to refresh our website – we've been closely monitoring the views we receive on mobile and the numbers are staggering. Unique visits via mobile are up by 57% year to date when compared to the same time last year. We've had over 450,000 mobile visits to SLH.com and the upward curve is clearly only going to continue. We wanted to create the optimal experience for all our users – not just those on a desktop.”
This new site sets SLH apart from the competition and is a great representation of why continuing to invest in online platforms is integral to the success of the SLH brand.
Paul continues, “The site itself has been built on a completely new content management system, seamlessly supporting mobile and tablet devices. The new site puts the hotels front and centre with over 10,000 new content contributions alongside 16,500 images and 130 videos across the websites 1,000 pages. It's a huge undertaking to deliver such a complex site, but we're thrilled with the results and expect our customers will enjoy the new user experience.”
