		<description>Julie,
I know, I run into sites all the time that are withdrawing marketing $$ for the internet...Travel sites especially need to be a force to branding themselves on the internet.
You have a great site Julie!

Thanks for commenting</description>

		<description>Great post and so true!

I have a travel recommendation website and I find is shocking how many of the travel providers are backwards in their marketing &amp; PR.

Put yourself everywhere!

		<description>Corey,

Thank you.  I will second the thought that it takes time. I certainly use my assistant to help, but really do encourage all to take the time, especially when everything we did for this client cost us nothing, except time!
I need to emphasize to everyone too, that there are still no guarantees that these portals will work for you.  If your competitors do the same, you will be going up against them. If you do not completely fill out your social media accounts, photo sharing accounts, you will have limited results. 
Lastly, if your website does not have a good layout, or no &quot;calls to action&quot;, than again, you will have limited results.
All in all however, as you said Corey, &quot;Put yourself everywhere,&quot; and you at least begin the process of getting your hotel, or web site into many other areas!

Thanks again,

Ty</description>

		<description>Nice post Ty.  The technique of &quot;putting yourself everywhere&quot; definitely is working these days.  It can be time-consuming, but it is worth it.  Nice points.
