cityshoppingdubai.com expands portfolio
Following the phenomenal success of cityshoppingdubai.com, which now boasts in excess of 120,000 hits and over 4,000 visitors per day, the shopping directory website is kicking off its ambitious international expansion plan with two new launches: cityshoppingkuwait.com and cityshoppingabudhabi.com that go live today.
Tony Wilson, managing director, cityshoppingdubai.com explains the reasons behind the website’s success and decision to launch in these two exciting cities: “The success of DSS has contributed to our rapid growth and we wanted to follow this fantastic period with the news of our new launches.” He continues: “We were receiving regular demands from the residents of both Kuwait and Abu Dhabi who wanted to know more about shopping and were entering all the online competitions on the Dubai site, so we wanted to provide them with a dedicated site in their home city.”
“Dubai regularly grabs the column inches in regional fashion and beauty media, but both Abu Dhabi and Kuwait play host to an array of malls and high quality fashion brands, that due to lack of promotion are not publicized enough. We want to prove that both these cities have an abundance of top stores and designers to tempt the eager shopper, and also to be a valuable resource to new visitors and residents alike,” Wilson says.
The format for all three sites will be the same, with a fully comprehensive directory of stores accompanied by a simple-to-use search facility to make locating that perfect pair of shoes or must-have accessory just a click away. In addition, the sites offer visitors the chance to win a selection of great giveaways. Recent prizes include designer jeans, handbags, spa treatments, designer shoes, salon products and much more.
So what’s next for this formidable Dubai-based e-company? Wilson says: “We are implementing a charity page on all three sites, where visitors can bid for great prizes and all the money received will go to a different charity every month. We want to provide a service to both local residents and tourists and the launch of these two additional sites is just the start of an exciting future of the cityshopping brand.”
