Some basics about hotel search engine marketing that you should know about are that SEM uses various strategies to enhance page rankings on search engines. Making the hotel website search engine optimised (SEO friendly) is one aspect of it. Other aspects include paid advertising, contextual advertising, and paid inclusions.

Making a search engine optimised website means populating the website with online content that uses specific keywords that the customers would use when they search for a hotel. Using meta-tags is another aspect of SEO. The idea being that every website should be both search and user friendly to generate maximum impact.

Hotel search engine marketing also uses paid search as a tool to draw in customers. From sponsored ads that can be seen on any search engine results page, to banner placements on the web pages of a major newspaper’s travel section and travel blogs – it is all a part of the SEM action plan. Making a landing page where the customer “lands” after clicking on any ad is another key aspect of the process. This is where a consumer can opt-in through email to receive the best promotions and updates.

On smart phones today, internet and mobile browsers allow users to search for and look at content. Contextual advertising makes it easy for marketers to place promotions that are relevant to the content being displayed on the screens. As one of the many tools available in the hotel search engine marketing portfolio, contextual advertising continues to deliver the results. This is because contextual advertisements are usually more targeted and therefore are more likely to be clicked.

Paid inclusions are a product that search engines companies sell to their clients. These are basically promotions of websites that are included in the search index (as opposed to paid advertisements which are listed separately and not in the search index). Using this tool can be a great search engine marketing strategy for hotels especially because most hotel websites feature dynamic content that is frequently changed. With paid inclusions, website owners can specify the schedule for crawling the page.

I would also like to point out that this article does not cover page rank, those of use that write here at Bukisa need not worry our mind with page rank as that’s a figure that advertisers look at and it has no bearing on how SERPS are displayed. Nor does PR help increase traffic, SERPS do this and since we make our money on traffic and not page rank we can let the folks at Bukisa worry about that, and in case are you wondering the front page is a 5 out of 10 but I digress. (I have never in my life used that word – digress but I seem to have been able to work it in today yes you can stand up and cheer, ok back to the point.) 

Every time you begin a new article it’s a clean slate. In most cases if you write for Bukisa you are attempting to earn an income. When writing your main concern of course is a quality article. A quality article will yield long term results on its own merits. Your second concern has to be Search Engine Result Pages (SERPS). The reason is simple good SERPS equate to good money Excellent SERPS equate to Excellent money and I bet you can guess what bad ones do.

The first step is look at your title. Keywords are extremely vital. For example I was posed a question a while back about and article on another site and why the reviews where so good, but the results from search engines where not. The title of the article was “and now”, the first thing I do when reviewing a page for SEO is of course Google it. The Search Engine Result Pages (SERP brought 5,970,000,000 results yes that’s almost 6 billion pages! One may ask why does that matter, lets picture it this way, you enter a in a race and arrive at the start line to discover there are 5.9 billion contestants in the race.  Not only is it so crowded it may take months to even see the starting line, you have little or no chance to even be competitive. Those two words (and now) are way too generic and will not return a Search Engine Result Pages SERP of any value. Now the story was a wonderfully written article about a movie star of the 1940’s.  Due to a promise to the author I won’t mention the new name of the article since she seemed to be somewhat embarrassed on how poorly her articles where doing. However she followed my advice altered the article title and nothing else. She had been getting about 10 Google hits a month, when I talked to her two weeks ago she was getting 400-600 a day the new title was “The story of a (actors name withheld) a bio of her life then and now.” The article is now getting over 250 hits a day just on the actors name.

 Now I did ask her why she selected the old name for it and she replied “there are so many sites about and celebrity sites, I wanted to make sure I was included in all those searches.” This was where she went wrong in her thought process, I explained to her would you rather get 10 hits out of 6 billion results 1000 hits out of a 100000 results. The object is to narrow the field so you can you have a chance to compete.

The title is most of the battle the content also need keywords, but here is where one can go astray if they over do it. Keyword density can be spammed. Here on Bukisa we are required to have at least 250 words. While I have seen some so called SEO experts go to as much as 7% of the words on a page (that would be 17.5 times the keyword would appear in your article, I have advised for several years never go over 3% as there have been reports of penalties for pages with more  than that. One  resource I have found that be very helpful with counting keywords is http://textalyser.net/

Now about covers the easy part.  And at 800 plus words I am inclined to think you praying I am about to present my closing. The last part takes a bit more work. And it can be someone hard for those not used to running websites and blogs, but this method can put you over the top.

Locate place where you can blog for free or have a free website. Set up several 10 or 15 if you have the time, install wordpress or any other content management script like. Here is one I set up just for this article it took me 10 minutes http://writingformoney.limewebs.com/.
 

After you have the basic site or blog set up go to Bukisa and go to your article. Click on republish and copy and paste that to a post in the site. Be sure to either turn off the editor or go to source code.  If you have adsense you may even want to monetize these sites where allowed. I use free hosting and free blogs to do this. You can also get a free domains for place that require that at http://www.dot.tk/ but to keep these you do need some traffic going to the site. Do not be afraid to write a few blog entries on occasion that may boost traffic to these sites. Keeping these sites on topic is a great method to increase SERPS so if you have a lot of stories about one topic only post those articles there. Try not to make all the sites the same. Don’t be afraid to borrow other articles from your friends to post or even share these sites with several that write on related topics. Update them at least once a week so Google does not forget about them. WordPress seems to about the best with Google so try to use that.   

Not every one can set up thier own blog or website there is a new site which I started this week that will authers of hot to or help articles post their link and or articals for free. This site is designed witht eh idea of increasing SERPS for content sites like Buskisa and I ahve set it up to allow authoer to simple us the republish link in htere artical and put the entire artical there with the links back to tyhe orginal. this new tool is at http://ehowto.tk abd while you can make a featured article for a fee the site also has a free submission system also.

Now I know I am this is not one of those short little how to articles that seem to fix all your problems in 250 words, but start to follow these methods and your will see your page views going up, and in the end game that’s what we all want

1.  Duplicate Content/Sites – Do not set up multiple sites or site pages using basically the same content with a few different keywords spread around.  This does not fool the search engines.

2.  Cloaking – Cloaking is when a website or webpage is set up to show different content for a search engine spider than the human visitors.   The cloaked page (for the spiders) is stuffed with keywords in an attempt to get higher rankings.  What it can get you is banned!

3.  Linking to Bad Neighborhoods – Be careful who you link to because you can be found guilty by association.   Do not link to adult sites, gambling sites or link farms.  Also be careful not to link to sites that use any of the SEO methods mentioned here.

4.  Title Stacking – This is simply trying to give each page more than one title tag so you can use more keywords to get higher rankings.   The search engines consider this a dirty little trick.

5.  Doorway Pages – Doorway or gateway pages are pages that are set-up for one keyword topic but then they take you to different content.   These pages usually have little value in the way of content and have little to do with the rest of the site.  They are used solely to try to get a higher rank in the search engines.

6.  Redirect Pages – Redirect pages are set up to rank high in the search engines but when you click on the page, it will take you to another page which is usually a sales page for a product or service.  So, what you see isn’t what you get!

7.  Automated Submission Services – Do not use automated submission services.  They are against Google’s TOS and can get you banned. 

8.  Hidden Links – This is when a link is added to a page in such a small size that it cannot be seen by human visitors but can be picked up by the search engine spiders.   This might work for a time but when the search engines discover it, you will be penalized!

9.  Keyword Stuffing – Keyword stuffing or spamming is simply being too repetitive with your keywords as to the extent of your content not being sensible.  For example if your keywords are cat food and your text reads something like this:  When your cat gets hungry be sure to feed them this cat food because your cat will like this cat food.  This cat food comes in an easy to open cat food can and contains fish, chicken and healthy ingredients that all cat food should have.  So, when your cat is hungry for cat food, give them this cat food because this cat food is the best cat food for your cat!

You can easily see why this kind of keyword stuffing should not be used.

10.  Invisible Text – This is when you hide text by using the same color text and background.   The invisible text is meant for the search engines only and not for visitors.  This is done so you can stuff a lot more keywords on your page without wrecking your content.  The search engines will discover this and they will penalize you!

Be careful not to use these Black Hat SEO methods because it could cause you a lot of trouble with the search engines.  Be careful as well, who you hire to work on your site because some of these things can be done without your knowledge and cause your site to get banned or penalized.  

A few things you should do to get higher rankings are:

1.  Research keywords and use relevant keywords on your web pages and in your page title.

2.  Add new content to your site regularly

3.  Link with relevant, quality sites

4.  Use a site map

5.  Don’t use a lot of javascript or flash.  The search engines do not read these.

Following all of the above can keep you from getting banned and improve your rankings!

More than 60% of consumers now say that online research influenced their decision making process when purchasing a particular product. A Phoenix search engine optimization company can help those people find your company.

The explosion of social media tools like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube have dramatically influenced the number of people using the internet.

And, with the increasing amount of smartphones being purchased that can access the internet any place has made it more important than ever for companies to make sure that they have a strong website and Phoenix search engine optimization companies are helping that happen.

What the company is doing is examining what words people are searching for.  Often business owners aren’t aware of certain phrases that their potential customers are using when they go to places like Google or Bing.

That’s where a partner in the search space can really help a company.  It begins with determining what those so-called keywords are that their potential customers are entering into sites like Google.

Then, a Phoenix search engine optimization company can examine the website of their client to see how often those keywords appear on their website.

Most of the time the proper keywords are not being used on the company’s website and the text on their website needs to be altered to help improve the company’s ranking.

After that takes place then the Phoenix search engine optimization company will go to work with their client to see who their competitors are for the particular words or phrases.
 An assessment is performed to find out why those competitors are doing so well with those particular phrases.

A business in Arizona should really look for a Phoenix search engine optimization company that can run reports and help them determine the right keywords, what their competitors are doing, and what their site needs to do to include the right mix of those phrases on their site.

The next, and arguably, most important step is beginning to build links to the company’s website from external sources.  Say, for instance, that you are a restaurant.  Well, in order to improve your Phoenix search engine optimization company score you would need links to your website on food websites, city guide type sites, and business directory sites.

You would also benefit greatly by having links to your site from bloggers who like to eat out and write about their experiences on their personal blog.  This is part of the reason the blog movement has become so big.

Your SEO score can improve greatly by having bloggers link to you because sites like Google give very high scores to bloggers.

These are just a few of the things that you should really make sure your company is looking for when you are considering which company to hire to help you in this space.
