Please give us a short summary of your website?

Its an independent Car hire and Safari website, that allows the customer to create there own experiences. We recommend things to do and see, but the experience is down to the customer. We also own a Plaza in Mombasa, of which units are available to rent. Also in Chogoria we have a Salon & Executive Kinyozi, which is run by one of the ONLY MALE hair stylists in the area.

What inspired you to launch your own website?

We needed to generate interest from people before they arrived in Kenya and felt that a website was the best way to achieve this. Before customers were finding out about us by world of mouth, and our business cards, which is a slow way to do business in the electronic age.

When did you launch your first website?

We first launched our website on 15th December 2007.

How did you decide on a name for your website?

We decided on the name for our website because we were originally just going to have Car hire and Safaris on there but we decided to include our 2 other companies as well, so we appealed to both the tourist coming to Kenya and Kenyans themselves.

What makes it different from other, similar offerings?

Although we are a Limited company, we are a family run business rather than a corporate one, which gives us several advantages. 1. We all know each other and get along and 2. We all know who is boss! We also offer a range of services rather than focusing on just one area and that helps us become a known name, hopefully throughout Kenya and overseas.

If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?

I think that if the sight got big really quickly then we would be able to keep up with demand, because we have a dedicated team running the site and another running the company, and we do cross over from time to time.

What method has been most successful for promoting your website?

We are still trying all sorts of things to help promote the web page, and if anyone has any ideas then drop us an email!
