Group Meeting Deals
In March, the CVB launched a Group Meeting Deals page to offer special group rates to meeting planners and their attendees. There are currently 10 hotel properties offering featured deals. If you would like to add a group offer, log in to the extranet and click on Marketplace.

Favorites
A new “Favorites” feature is now available on the CVB website. This tool allows users to create a customized collection of Greater Palm Springs Partners and share customized lists with others. To use, click on the “heart” icon on any Partner listing. To view your collection, click on the saved heart in the top navigation of the website. 

AMP
As mobile users continue to account for a growing segment of CVB website traffic, the CVB partnered with Simpleview to implement AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) on the CVB website. AMP versions of the website are now available to mobile users viewing listings, events, deals or blog posts. These pages offer a mobile-optimized design with faster load times.

Organic Traffic
Organic traffic continues to be the top traffic driver to the CVB website. In March and April, organic traffic accounted for 47% of total traffic. The other top-performing traffic channel was paid search with 24%.
