Successful launching of the third version of GO-Makkah.com
Published in 03.08.10

When we got the idea to create GO-Makkah.com, our main purpose, in IT Bee Consulting, was to serve the pilgrims in full transparency. Now that we are the leading website in the sector of religious tourism and Islamic pilgrimage, we are proud to announce the launching of the third version of our site.
Since launching Version 1 of our site, GO-Makkah has been consistently ranked among the top websites specialized in Hajj and Umrah. We are receiving more and more offers destined to pilgrims from all over the world (no less than 150 Hajj or Umrah offers available on the site every day).  GO-Makkah is a credible and secure web portal that enables pilgrims to quickly and easily compare offers.

Pursuing this same logic, the successful V2 of the site was launched in February 2010, using the most recent web technologies (Ajax, Web 2.0, etc), providing , thus,  advanced administration tools for travel agencies and rapidity and simplicity of use for pilgrims.

 

The French version of GO-Makkah has been witnessing an ongoing rise in terms of monthly visits. The number of visits reached 15000, just few months after launching V2, with the number of online bookings exceeding 700 bookings per month ( figures of June 2010).

At the same time, the number of the agencies having confidence in our site was multiplied by ten, to reach 40 agency networks in 14 countries, in the 6 months following the launching of this version.

Our target to offer a much better accessibility has given birth to the multilingual (Version 3) of the site,  a version that we  insisted  on its perfection and on rendering it easier to consult by pilgrims as well as by concerned agencies.

Now that Version 3 is operating, users can choose the  language they want : French, English or Arabic. The multilingual version concerns  all the site. This is an option that will, with no doubt, be appreciated by those who used to find difficulty dealing with the previous version which was exclusively French.

Only one click, and each pilgrim can have access, in full transparency, to all the offers published by the specialized travel agencies , as well as to a big source of information related to preparing Hajj and Umrah( stages, procedures, precautions…). Also, the site offers a larger service panel dedicated to pilgrims and specialists of the Haj sector.


This new multilingual version of GO-Makkah aims to concern more than one billion Muslims throughout the world, facilitating thus the contact with specialized agencies and increasing the number of bookings.

The new version was created as an answer to the increasing demand from customers in the Middle East, Europe and America. If you speak French, English or Arabic, you are in the right place. We are here to serve you in these three languages, and to help you succeed in your pilgrimage trip.

This is a new initiative made to confirm our everlasting willingness to improve the quality of our offers.

Very soon , you are going to discover, inchallah, our new versions in German and Russian, that will be followed by the Dutch and the Turkish.

You can also visit our teams to get any kind of information or advice at one of our offices in France (Asnières sur seine) , Belgium (Brussels) or in Tunisia (Tunis).

All the team of GO-makkah wishes for you a Hajj Mabrour .

Luxury hotels in Mecca were full for Hajj
Luxury hotels around the Grand Mosque in Mecca were running full for this year's Hajj despite hundreds of new rooms opening. "Makkah Hilton & Towers were a sell-out for the month surrounding Hajj," said Shuja Zaidi, the hotel's general manager and vice president for Hilton Worldwide projects in Saudi Arabia. "We had expected rates to be lower than in 2010 due to the increased supply of hotel rooms in and around the Haram." But demand exceeded supply and rates remained "in line" with last year.
