TourDash tour of the month | July’16
Hello there! Today is the time for our regular column – TourDash tour of the month. As usually we’ve carefully investigated all the tours made during the last four weeks. And we are happy to present you the winner: Senator Barcelona Spa Hotel Tour!
The most exciting part of the tour is multi-language hotspots which are designed in a nice, simple and comfortable way for users. Also hotel booking is possible directly from the hotspots. That’s been thought through perfectly! And the last advantage is corporate colors and logo in the navigation menu. This tour is done very well!
Enjoy watching it!

TourDash Total Statistics
Good morning everybody! How is it going? Today we want to share with you our statistics for all 2,5 years of TourDash existance. It was interesting to collect data and look at the dynamics. Please pay attention that 2016 is still going, so the stats of this year isn’t full for now.
Let’s start from the tours:
So, during all this time in total 5212 Tourdash tours were created: 3655 Demo and 1560 Paid ones. The number of demo tours is going down, but paid tours are growing. That’s exciting! The most using feature in Tourdash tours is Advanced Navigation.
Some numbers about TourDash resellers:
In total 2129 resellers are registered in TourDash since 2014. This is more then 2 new resellers every day. That is great! We are glad to work with everybody! 🙂
And at last here are top 16 countries from were resellers have registered. We could use data only from fully filled profiles, though. If you haven’t specify your country, we don’t count you here.
That is all for now! What else is interesting for you for the next statistics post?

Top 3. How can I update my existing TourDash tour with new panoramas?
If you completely reshoot an existing Google Street View tour (or just add some extra panoramas to it) and publish it on Google, you will have to create a new TourDash tour for your updated panoramas from scratch.

Top 4. Where is the virtual tour equipped with TourDash available?
Since TourDash is not integrated into the Google Maps servers a virtual tour equipped with TourDash is only visible by using the iFrame code by which the TourDash tour can be exported to a client’s website, Facebook page or blog. As a result the additional elements of the tour created with TourDash are not visible when viewed directly from the Google places or Google Maps pages.

We have a built-in option to publish your virtual tour on Facebook. Once you’ve clicked on “Embed tourâ€, a new page appears. In the lower left corner there is a blue “Publish to Facebook†button.

TourDash tour of the month | June’16
Hello everybody! Today is the time for our regular column – TourDash tour of the month. As usually we’ve carefully investigated all the tours made during the last four weeks. And we are happy to present you the winner: Westminster Abbey Tour!
Westminster Abbey is the main shrine of the British nation. A remarkable example of early English Gothic architecture, Westminster Abbey was established more than a thousand years ago. It is a traditional place of coronation, burial for English monarchs and royal weddings.
Westminster Abbey is not only a place of worship, but also a real treasure. There are masterpieces of painting, monumental and decorative arts, amazing fabrics, tapestries and rare beauty of church utensils. Recognizable silhouette of the Abbey, with two towers and numerous openwork arches, its magnificent stained-glass windows and ornate interiors have always attracted tourists. As a result Westminster Abbey became one of the most visited attractions in the world.
Now we all can walk there sitting in front of the computer! The virtual tour includes a lot of interesting hotspots with modern and historical photos and videos and even podcast.
Enjoy watching this amazing virtual tour!

TourDash White Label program
Hello there! As you might remember recently we’ve implemented a small research and recieved a lot of important questions about ToutDash services. One of the question was about White Label. Untill today it was not indicated on our website, but we’ve been providing White Label solutions for our customers for a long time! 🙂
At the moment TourDash can offer you a full-featured White Label solution. You can have a customized version of live.tourdash.com portal, accessible from your own domain. There will be no TourDash-related branding, color scheme, logotypes, copyrights, etc. Portal will be adjusted to match your company needs. The same for copyrights inside the embedded tours, you will have you own copyright there.
As a reseller, you will have to purchase the licenses in TD store, like you regularly do, and assign them to your clients. And your clients will access your customized portal.
Currently, we have a one-off setup fee and also a White Label subscription fee, that is charged automatically every month. If you are interested, please email us request to support@tourdash.com with your requirements and we will send you a proposal for possible solutions with prices and fees.
Announcement about TourDash support
Good afternoon everybody! Small announcement about TourDash support.
As you know our support team answer all requests within 24 hours. But we found out that sometimes for some reason some problems with letters delivery apear. We are working on the solution on that issue.
If you haven’t received an automated response from the ticket system in 15 minutes it means your email hasn’t reached us. Please try sending your request again or duplicate it in a Facebook message on our page. We answer Facebook messages within 30 minutes in average.
Thank you all for choosing TourDash!
Results of our survey
Hello everybody! A couple of weeks ago we asked you to participate in our small spring survey. Thank you all for taking part! We are very glad to see your opinion and analyze our work. We want to share results of the research with you and answer some questions that were asked in the last part of the pull. We hope our comments will make everything clear!
Guys, what you are reading right now is our blog! 🙂 So yeah, we do have a blog!
Every person registered in TourDash is automatically added to our mailing list. So all the resellers are getting our newsletter with the latest news and updates directly to the personal emails, except for those who unsubscribed for any reason. If you want to subscribe or renew your subscription, you can do just following this link.
After subscription once in two weeks you will receive our email full of useful information about TourDash, our updates and interesting articles about online marketing, virtual tours usage, web trends and much more. And in case you don’t like it cancelling subscription is possible any minute. 🙂
Popular responses and our comments
- Many of you have asked us about the possibility of Whitelabel. It is not indicated on our website (it’s our fault, we will add this information), but we provide whitelabel solutions for our customers. If you are interested, please email us request to support@tourdash.com with your requirements and we will send you a proposal for possible solutions.
- VR – this word appeared in many comments. Currently TourDash does not support VR-headsets, but we understand that VR is a trend today and we’re planning to explore the possibility for integration of VR in TourDash and possibly release VR beta functionality during the coming months.
- We’ve received a lot of notes about TourDash support. At the moment the average response time of technical support does not exceed 24 hours, and we are constantly improving our working process. Please email us to support@tourdash.com for any of your questions and we will help you as soon as possible.
Thank you all again for your answers! Keep in touch!
P.S. From the 15th of June, as it was said in the previous post, we show a banner for all demo tours, which are located not on resellers’ websites.
Important! TourDash demo tours terms and conditions
Hello there! A very important information about TourDash demo tours terms and conditions is presented in this post. Please pay your attention to avoid unintended consequences because of violation.
As you all know, demo tours are not meant for usage on customers’ websites. They are are only meant for usage on resellers’ websites to show the possibilities to their customers.
We have noticed that in some cases resellers have placed demo tours on multiple clients’ websites for long period of time. This clearly is not what demo versions are intended for.
Starting June 15th, all demo tours published not on your own website will show a banner with the following information: “Demo Version For Non Commercial Use Onlyâ€. It will of course still allow your customers to see many advantages of TourDash. Please make sure your own website is mentioned in your profile, otherwise demo’s published on your own website will show this message as well.
We believe you understand this measure and are confident it will not influence the positive effect of demo tours on your business.
For all questions please write to support@tourdash.com. Thank you!
