Oversee.net
Offers a Cure for Mundane Weekends With Their
Latest Developed Website - WanderWe.com
|
|
When
most domainers
hear the name Oversee.net
they think about the company's various
domain-related services like monetization
pioneer DomainSponsor.com
and Oversee's Webfest
Global conference (known as
DOMAINFest before a name change for the 2013
show last February). |
|
Many
also know that Oversee owns a massive
domain portfolio containing hundreds of
thousands of names. However, you may not know
how focused Oversee had become on developing
some of their assets into new web-based
businesses (LowFares.com
being one of the prime examples).
|
|
|
While
LowFares.com was built on the kind of
category-defining generic name domainers
love, Oversee is also creating new
brands with more fanciful names. The
latest example is a slick new weekend
getaway site they just launched at WanderWe.com. |
|
In
WanderWe, Oversee said they have
created the only online
travel site completely focused on
the 2–4 day getaway market.
I make a lot of those kinds of trips
myself, so I can certainly see the
appeal in a site specializing in
that area. I also like that in
addition to making it possible for weekend
travelers to book all aspects of
their weekend getaway including
hotel, activities and tours in one
place, WanderWe offers suggestions
for great getaways in popular
locales. |
|
Those
currently include Oversee's home
base - California - as well
as the Northeastern U.S. and
the Washington, DC area. You
can bet the geographic options will
continue to grow as the concept catches
on.
WanderWe
currently has platforms optimized
for both desktop computers and
tablets. They have also launched a
marketing campaign that takes an
entertaining approach that feels
just right for the weekend
getaway crowd. You can see what I
mean in video below called "The
Cure for Mundane Weekends": |
