inntopia.com Enters Into Syndication Agreement with Leading Property Video Producer, HotelView

inntopia.com to Feature Sophisticated Visual Aid for Online Purchase of Travel Products and Services

STOWE, Vt. -- inntopia.com, a leading real-time, online leisure-lodging reservations network, Tuesday announced that it has entered into a one-year syndication agreement with HotelView Corp., a Visual Data Corp. VDAT subsidiary, that will allow inntopia.com to offer HotelView's extensive video services to its member properties.

Under the terms of the agreement, each company will market the other's products to its property customers and provide hyperlinks to the other's web site(s).

In addition to offering HotelView's full motion, narrated video property tours to its member properties -- inns, hotels, and bed and breakfasts -- inntopia.com will feature property videos on its consumer site (www.inntopia.com), and supply videos to its affiliates. This will ultimately offer consumers an advanced tool for evaluating properties.

HotelView will promote inntopia.com's global distribution network of over 7,500 partner web sites to its properties.

"Consumers respond to television-like advertising that provides an advanced visual aid for online purchases of travel products and services," said Trevor Crist, general manager and co-founder of inntopia.com. "Our new partnership with HotelView enables us to offer the best way possible for our member properties to sell their rooms on the Internet: with sound and motion."

"Establishing a syndication agreement with a global company like inntopia.com will allow us to increase our property's viewership," said David Chestler, general manager for HotelView. "We are excited to work with this innovative provider of technology and distribution services to the specialty travel industry."

Yahoo! Internet Life magazine awarded four stars to HotelView for providing the "Best Hotel Room Preview."
