SEO for Your Hotel

Reach travelers with a specific intent to purchase and reduce your costs by boosting your organic (non paid) search results.

WHY SEO FOR HOTELS?

Having a strong online presence is not just a luxury—it's a necessity. For hotels, this means standing out in a crowded marketplace where potential guests are constantly searching for the perfect place to stay. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the key to achieving this visibility. It ensures that your hotel is easily discoverable by travelers who are ready to book their next stay. By investing in SEO, you not only increase your chances of appearing at the top of search engine results but also build trust and credibility with your audience.

Let us help you harness the power of SEO to drive more bookings, enhance your online reputation, and ultimately, grow your business.

INCREASED VISIBILITY

Whether you are an established hotel or a new property, an effective OTA strategy makes it easier for consumers to book your hotel. As powerhouse OTAs continue to invest in key emerging technologies, a presence there leads to a “billboard effect” that overflows into direct web traffic over time.

INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITY

Booking behavior varies by booking origin. Many international markets are still more trusting of OTAs such as Expedia, Priceline or Orbitz than direct websites. Don't miss out on opportunities to get your hotel in front of international bookers.

METASEARCH

Metasearch sites like Google and TripAdvisor allow consumers to compare hotel rates from various channels in one place. Is your website available to book in metasearch? Are there advantages to booking direct? Are your rates in parity? We'll make sure you're taking full advantage of this fast-growing booking source.

Technical SEO

Technical SEO involves optimizing the backend structure of your website to improve its visibility and functionality for search engines. This includes ensuring that your site is mobile-friendly, has a secure HTTPS connection, and is free from broken links and duplicate content. By optimizing these technical aspects, we ensure that search engines can easily crawl, index, and rank your website, leading to better visibility and higher search rankings.

Content SEO

Content SEO focuses on creating high-quality, relevant content that appeals to both search engines and users. This involves keyword research, on-page optimization, and content creation strategies that target your ideal guests. From blog posts about local attractions to detailed descriptions of your hotel's amenities, our content SEO efforts will position your hotel as a valuable resource and an attractive destination.

Website Performance

Website Performance is a critical factor in both user experience and search engine rankings. Slow-loading websites can frustrate potential guests and lead to higher bounce rates. We optimize your website's loading speed by compressing images, leveraging browser caching, and minimizing code. A faster website not only improves user satisfaction but also boosts your search engine rankings, making it easier for guests to find and book your hotel.

Voice and AI Search

Voice and AI Search are rapidly changing the way people find information online. More travelers are using voice-activated devices like smartphones and smart speakers to search for hotels and travel information. By optimizing your website for voice search, we ensure that your hotel appears in these search results, capturing the attention of tech-savvy travelers who prefer hands-free browsing.

Schema Deployment

Schema Deployment involves adding structured data to your website's code to help search engines understand your content better. This can lead to enhanced search results, such as rich snippets, which display additional information like reviews, pricing, and availability directly in the search results. By implementing schema markup, we increase your hotel's visibility and attract more clicks from potential guests.

Visual Search

Visual Search allows users to search the web using images rather than text. This emerging technology is especially relevant for the hospitality industry, where travelers often rely on visuals to make decisions. By optimizing your website for visual search, we ensure that images of your hotel appear in relevant search results, making it easier for potential guests to discover your property through photos.
