Recently launched, Trekabout.com.au is a travel planners dream with over 340 HQ videos of hotels, restaurants, nightspots, family attractions and just about everything else of interest around Australia. It is a one of a kind tourism website and an exciting prospect for the industry. Distribution and marketing of the website has already begun to the United States, UK and Western Europe with very warm response. Initial statistics showing that the average user will spend over 7 minutes on Trekabout and view around 6.5 pages. A huge feat in webmaster terms.

Trekabout Media Productions is also a film production group producing stunning HD video and web content for accommodation and tourism operators throughout Australia.

Founder and Communications Director Dean Arnold -

“Online video content is now much better produced in terms of it's quality, and high definition is becoming the norm. We’re seeing that online videos are more creative, more effective and the possibilities for distribution are endless. For any operator large or small, getting a video produced is also now very low cost which is important for a struggling industry. We have an ambitious goal of producing at least 1200 short video clips ourselves over the next 3 years and will be offering our services at heavily discounted rates to make it happen. 5.7 million people visited Australia over the last year and more than 80% of those extensively planned their trip on the internet. For hotel and tourism operators, getting a video clip of their venue is just about the best thing they can do because the experiences people desire are so visual and online video provides the perfect way to tease people with that experience. That is what really sells in this industry. We’ve seen it with shows like Getaway and Postcards for years and now it’s happening on the internet”
