Flight search engine, Skyscanner, is continuing its international development with the launch of new local domain names in eight countries.

The new Skyscanner domains are: Russia (Skyscanner.ru), Japan (Skyscanner.jp), The Netherlands (Skyscanner.nl), Czech Republic (Skyscanner.cz), Greece (gr.Skyscanner.com), Turkey (tr.Skyscanner.com), Sweden (se.Skyscanner.com) and Romania (ro.Skyscanner.com).

The launch of these new domains follows the release of new domains for France (Skyscanner.fr), Spain (Skyscanner.es), Denmark (Skyscanner.dk), Germany (Skyscanner.de), Poland (Skyscanner.pl) and Italy (Skyscanner.it) last year.

Barry Smith, co-founder and director of business development at Skyscanner, said till date the company's international growth has been largely due to organic SEO but now it is planning to roll out its affiliates programme across Europe and is launching SEM campaigns in several territories.
