Content Marketing: Strategies for Tourism Companies
Have you ever heard of content marketing? It is not a direct sales channel, as we are used to, but a way of attracting your potential clients through the information they seek and that is linked to your brand.
In the case of tourism, before any trip, people search Google and other similar platforms looking for travel tips, hotels, curiosities and information about the destination they intend to visit. By understanding what search terms your potential clients are looking for, you can get them to your company, organically and through a pleasant experience, creating relevant content that will help them choose their destination.
