Get More Travel Bookings With Viral Marketing Tactics!

Utilize the power of REVIEWS to build consumer trust in your brand!

 

Did you know that 70% of your website visitors will read online reviews of your brand before making a purchase? {SOURCE: Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates} Word of mouth advertising significantly improves customer confidence and influences their buying decisions. Today, the vast majority of your website visitors are searching for online reviews of your brand and place great value in the opinions they find. Give them what they want! It’s quite simple. The more positive customer reviews you get, the more likely you are to generate travel bookings. Relevant content-driven reviews written  about your website are marketing goldmines on the internet. When TravelSiteCritic.com (TSC) writes an editorial review of your website, your customers have a place to recommend your brand online to the thousands of prospective customers that are ready to book their travel plans.

Is your travel website lost in the crowd? We have entered the age of internet saturation and it is hard to get noticed. When you search the phrase “Book a hotel” in Google you will find over 700 Million results!  The travel industry is mostly internet-based and it’s estimated that 70% of customers book their travel online. Getting your website found by these customers is crucial to your success. Unlike Search Engine Optimization (SEO) marketing companies that you find on the internet, TSC is vastly different. We do not make any changes to your website or submit your link to directories. TSC is a group of knowledgeable internet marketers who know from experience what it takes to succeed in the competitive travel niche and get noticed in 2012 and beyond.

We will utilize the same techniques on your website that currently drives over 60,000 new and unique customers to TravelSiteCritic.com every month. All of the marketing techniques we use are termed “white hat” (ethical) in the online marketing industry and have proven to be hugely effective. Gone are the days of boring “link exchanges” and “directory submissions”. If you ignore social marketing outlets like Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, you will be left behind. Travel market research firm PhocusWright found that Facebook users who are referred to travel booking sites are far more likely to book travel than those who are referred via search engines like Google. High search engine rankings do not guarantee more travel bookings on your website. Buzz does! We help create the buzz.

Full Page Editorial Review of your Travel Website

Our reviews are highly sought after by online travel customers and often achieve high 1st page search engine rankings.  We will write a completely unique and honest review of your website and brand to be indexed by search engines for your prospective customers to find. TSC will thoroughly review your website which may include information about the travel products you provide, your travel deals and promotions, the unique features on your website that we find valuable, information on your fees and cancellation policies, along with your social networking and contact information.

Each TSC review page comes equipped with a comment box to allow your customers to leave their own reviews and recommendations about your brand. Your review page will also include clickable rating-stars for your customers to rate your brand. The TSC reviews that receive the most positive rating stars end up in our TOP 10 Travel Sites List which is visible throughout the TSC website. Our review of your website will direct customers to your website with a link to any landing page you choose. The links to your website will carry the “no follow” attribute per Google’s webmaster guidelines to keep us both out of trouble (see…we told you we were “white hat”), but they still show value to search engines and bring ready-to-buy customers to your website.

Twitter Shout-outs and Link Shares

Our very own @Pamela_Jones on Twitter will personally tweet you along with a link to your website on #TravelTuesday to her thousands of followers.  Send her your travel deals and links to your blog posts for additional tweets and re-tweets throughout the week. Does this sound like Greek to you? Don’t worry, we will send you our FREE 1-page Twitter Marketing Guide when you join.

 

Facebook content sharing

Google conducted a study in 2009 that found 50% of travel customers are more likely to book with a company that was referred to them on Facebook. TSC has hundreds of followers that choose to follow for us for the latest travel deals and travel news. We will share your blog posts and content every week, along with a link to your website from our Facebook page.

 

Newsletter e-blasts

We will drive customers to your specific travel deals  by including them in our opt-in email newsletter subscribers. These subscribers are readers of TSC that have asked us to send them online travel deals in their email on a regular basis. They asked for it, and we will provide your deals to them!
