Metasearch engine Skyscanner has unveiled three new country domains as it continue its global expansion programme.
The UK-based engine was running language sites for users in Austria, Sweden and Switzerland but has today launched Skyscanner.se, Skyscanner.at and Skyscanner.ch as dedicated country sites.
The launches follow a similar roll-out in November 2009 for Skyscanner sites in Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Bosses say the primary reasons for introducing country-specific domains is for SEO and to establish the Skyscanner brand in a local environment.
The company now has 20 country sites around the world and the ability to display fares in 61 currencies.
