‘Welcome to Yorkshire’ won best tourist board website on TravelMole voted by subscribers. Gary Verity, chief executive of ‘Welcome to Yorkshire’ said “Our website is our opportunity to sell Yorkshire to the world so we are very proud to have won this award ”

The interactive flash navigation on the home page really puts it aside from your run of the mill website and keeps visitors looking around the site.  The TLD (Top Level Domain) Yorkshire.com also helps attract more visitors to the April 09 launched site as companies alike are seeing the benifits of generics.

Savvy businesses such as B&Q with their diy.com, British Gas with their Gas.co.uk, ToysRUs latest buy or Lloyds TSB with their insurance.co.uk domains. They have for many years reaped enormous rewards and marketing kudos from owning THE prime generic domains that define their respective industries.

Nothing in the eye of the public and businesses is more memorable than a domain that “Does exactly what it says on the tin”! and we think Yorkshire.com hits it on the head!
