Why Blog

Many tourism operators think they are too busy to blog or think they have nothing to say.

The reality is operators have a lot to say. Here are some ideas:

  • New services that you have in your business.
  • Specials and deals
  • A new tour that is now available in the location
  • A local event
  • A new show at the local Art Gallery
  • An interesting comment from a guest of some things they did.
A blog doesn't have to be word perfect and each post can be quiet short.

If you think you don't have time or don't have ideas have a scrap of paper and stick any idea you think of to blog on the fridge then when you need a break grab them and pick the one that inspires you today.

Blogging is easy and with blogger.com from google you can be blogging in minutes.

If you are describing places or events you can quickly add photos.

How do people find your blog:
  • Add a link from your website.
  • Comment on other peoples blog.
  • Signup for technorati.com
  • Use feedburner.com to distribute your blog via an RSS Feed and email.
  • Display your blog headlines on your website like we have done on RainbowTourism.com
