  -> Not sure! I think the fact that it's 'erreichbar' rather than 'erhältlich' suggests content, rather than an offer, but the context should probably make that clear! (-:

agree Susan Starling: This is the other possibility, depending on whether you focus on "Angebot" or "erreichbar," since the two words don't really work together. Maybe it was translated from English and someone mistranslated "available."

agree bochkor: Site is incorrect above this one, so I definitely vote for Gillian! Just because it's ON a website, you don't translate Angebot as site. It means offer, just as Gillian wrote correctly. Come on, Gillian, you should've chosen the highest confidence level!
