By using " Xplode Online CMS" as your web solution you are helping invest in UK Snowsport. Xplode will donate £100 per website that signs up to the British Ski Club for the Disabled. Xplode Online powers the World Snow Awards website.
The World Snow Awards would not have been possible to do without Xplode. What we needed:
- To capture the public votes online.
- Security - To have credibility the voting system needed to have strictly 1 vote per person.
- To capture the data from each person to back up the votes.
- To manage our own content instantly & have instant access to our statistics real time.
We needed the site to be search engine friendly as we had no advertising budget, our team had to manage the content, it had to be easy to use and finally it had to look good.
Xplode is a Content Management System with valid and semantic XHTML and CSS. No other CMS solution offers the same degree of web standards compliance, accessibility and search engine optimisation.
We feel that Xplode content management system achieved all the above, we want to advertsie this to the Snowsport Industry so they to can use a system that is cost effective and gets picked up quickly by all the major search engines.
The proof Xplode works is this site, we have had to date 120,000 people visit the World Snow Awards in 6 months without any advertising.
The benefits we found were the ability to grow the site using the Xplode module system. This means you can bolt on facilities such as a gallery module to show off products or, where your clients can view & download pictures of themselves enjoying their weeks skiing in your chalet. You can secure any pages pages you wish and make them client / password specific. With Xplode you can have any process you require, modules can be built just for you or existing modules can be tweaked so they work exactly how you need them to.
The World Snow Awards are not the only snowsport company using Xplode, Hot House Productions who produce the Skiing on Channel 4 are in the process of building there new site with Xplode, this site will have streaming video and archive modules.
We see this system being of use to the following:
Chalet Operators, Ski Schools, Airport Transfer, Ski Service, Hardware Sales, Travel Agents, Magazine's, Indoor / Outdoor Ski facilities, Insurance Companies and many more.
You cannot say that we do not try and help! Please download the PDF on this page so you can speak to an Xplode representative, mention the World Snow Awards and you will receive an industry deal. Let us know how you get on.
