Frommer’s Unlimited and Nexus Business Media Form Content Delivery Partnership for Hosted Solutions

March 1, 2008 - London

Frommer’s® Unlimited has struck a deal with Nexus Business Media, owner of Columbus Travel Guides, to take over the relationships and delivery of hosted content services to a range of clients including USA Today, BAA, RBS, Voyages Jules Verne, It’s The Way to Travel, Air France and Hogg Robinson Group.

Frommer’s Unlimited will deliver digital Columbus Travel Guides to the roster of clients who will then be able to easily include additional new content provided by Frommer’s Unlimited, such as events, weather, search engine optimized copy, and mapping.

Joel Brandon-Bravo of Frommer’s Unlimited said: “We are looking forward to working with such an exciting group of new customers to help them improve their web offering to their customers. We are already seeing a substantial shift in client spending on creating content rather than just pay per click advertising. Some of our established clients have tripled their content creation budget this year and we will be able to share our expertise and innovative tailored services with travel companies who use Columbus Travel Guides.”

The deal enables Nexus to focus on the launch of its new Foundography search service and media sales businesses and the licensing of its content by XML delivery.
