Selecting ATIS product highlights

What are product highlights?

Product highlights are extra details about your listing that help travellers determine if your offering is right for them. Product highlights are displayed on your listing page, enhancing your visibility and searchability on travelalberta.com.

For example, if you own an adventure tourism company, you can highlight tour offerings tailored to different skill levels. Additionally, you can indicate whether your offering requires specific equipment and if rentals are available.

Product highlights might cover:

• The traveller type you’re catering to
• The skill level required
• Activity or experience duration
• If your experience is guided or self-guided
• Gear or equipment requirements

Why are they important?

While optional, adding product highlights is a quick and easy way to boost your listings.

Product highlights provide:

• Improved discoverability. They increase your listing’s visibility and searchability on travelalberta.com, improving its chance of being found by travellers searching for specific criteria or interests.
• Increased conversion. They can attract more engaged travellers, which could lead to higher booking potential and improved conversion rates.
• Differentiation. They help categorize your offering and distinguish it from competitors.
• Improved clarity. They give essential details about what’s included, who your offering is for, and any special requirements.

How do they help travellers?

Highlights allow ATIS to categorize your product based on factors like audience type, duration of the activity/experience, accessibility information and more. This ensures your product reaches its ideal audience.

How does Travel Alberta use this information?

The Travel Alberta team leverages product highlights to curate content pages, articles, road trips and itineraries. This means that listings with highlights can appear in more places on travelalberta.com, increasing visibility and exposure to millions of site visitors.
