Herewith I would like to tell a successful story that is the story of a web portal accessible at http://www.maybee.it.
It is an Italian web portal whose aim id pick up and promote the tourist offer of bed & breakfast and rural houses situated in different regions and areas of our country. Originally is a project born thanks to an idea of the K-Consulting society and the privileged clients and partners are SMEs according to the peculiarity of the tourist sector in Italy (bed & breakfast, retails, country houses, rural houses and farms). Points of strength of the portal are:

1. the user-friendly technology and layout
2. the completeness of the information/contents
3. the MayBee Infomail service that makes possible for the potential client to send an e-mail directly to a plenty of “interesting” structures ( structures which answer to his vacation desires) in order to receive the needed information useful to make the choice
4. There are different possibilities of research engines inside the site and there are different paths in order to search key information for the clients/targets.
5. There is a last minute section which can be directly updated by the operators from remote.
6. the possibility to update the site and its contents from remote and back office (reserved to operators and partners)
7. Periodical newsletter about new services and key events dedicated to potential clients
8. Periodical newsletter in order to inform operators and partners structures about new services and means to strength the visibility of tourist offer
9. THE VITUAL COMMUNITY dedicate to partners structures and operators which works thank to the network among the operators and permits the cooperation and the sharing of experiences, services, ideas and added value coming from promotion and publicity. The community start up was the last 2 Juny 2007

After a customer satisfaction survey, it is possible to say that final clients (tourists and users) and partners (operators) are very pleased for the offered services. At the moment Mybee.it is a very innovative portal in the Italian Panorama. The invitation that comes from the portal is “build and reinforce the network” in order to satisfy final clients!
