A Social Networking Website For Spa Enthusiasts

Social media has become extremely popular and widely used over the last decade. Facebook has quickly risen to one of the most visited sites on the planet, with other platforms such as Twitter and Bebo also recieving a huge amount of traffic and attention.

Social media has become so widely utilised by people as a communication medium that big businesses are quickly realising the potential importance of leveraging this direct communication to engage with potential target audiences. This has led to numerous different niche social media platforms, which tend to be purpose driven, industry or interest specific and will cater to the interests of specific groups of people.

The Spa Project is the newest company we’ve seen take advantage of the social media boom, launching the first ever social media site aimed specifically at people who love spas and spa breaks. Focusing solely on the spa niche, the website not only offers the generic social media communication routes (email, chat, etc), but they also feauture guides to national and international spas, reviews of products and hotels, trip planning tools, etc.

The site is a great palce for users to come together and dicuss their home spa treatments, review destination spas or just talk about the last massage they had. You can even plan spa trips together with your online friends, using the sites reviews section to make an informed decision on your location.

If you want to join the website, you’ll need to create a public profile, which allows you to access the forums and other site resources, as well as communicating with other people on the network. You can also join up to a Rating Rewards program, which rewards you with Spa Points everyime you review a destination, spa or product. The points you’re awarded can then be swapped for discount codes, luxury skin care products and toiletries.
