Wiki Travel

Don't Fall into the Pixel or Wiki Page Trap

Executive summary about Wiki Travel by Deepak Dutta

Now there is a gold rush to buy wiki pages.

The same fate awaits the paid wiki pages.

Why do you visit a web site? You do not visit a web site to stare at a page full of pixel ads or read a random wiki page.

There is no reason for a web surfer to visit a paid wiki site for anything.

The paid wiki sites are not even wikis. Look at a paid wiki page. Even MySpace allows you to customize your pages.

A better option for advertisers is to start creating Squiddo lenses or pages on any topic for free. 1. Customization: You should be able to fully customize your pages, removing all logos, banners, menus, and color scheme of the site.

2. Page Promotion: You should have complete control of when and how your pages are linked on the homepage of the site.

3. The site should not monetize by placing ads on any pages.

Wiki Strategy: Promoting your Travel, Tourism or Lodging Website
Executive summary about Wiki Travel by Michael Buczek

A wiki is a website which allows users to add and edit content collectively. “Wiki wiki” means “rapidly” in the Hawaiian language.

This creates a powerful online collaboration environment that is self-managed by its users. There are many wikis that provide opportunities for hotels, inns, resorts and other tourism and hospitality businesses to post their own listings.

How big are Wikis? The most famous and, frankly, awe-inspiring wiki is Wikipedia (www.wikipedia.org). A private wiki can be password protected so only users can view and edit the information.
From a hospitality and tourism marketing strategy perspective, a Wiki offers you the opportunity to copywrite about your own area and business. Etiquette: many wikis let you make updates anonymously. If you make mistakes, other people will fix them, and if you “spam” with inappropriate content, other people will remove you.

Wikipedia is a powerful resource that many hospitality businesses should be added to. See the listing I made for a hotel website marketing company.

RoaringForkWiki. We recommend you take a few hours and implement an online marketing strategy to promote your Travel, Tourism or Hotel website in wikis.

Chicago

Washington DC conjures images of the White House for many travelers. The US capital offers many more accessible attractions to travelers, though, many of which are happily affordable for those on a budget enjoying the city from Washington hostels. The city is home to a number of free museums, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the National Museum of Natural History.

San Francisco

San Francisco, meanwhile, is quite a unique American city; very cosmopolitan and famous for its liberal attitudes and café culture, it attracts large numbers of independent travelers and backpackers each year. The connection with the 'Beat generation' of poets and writers make San Francisco hostels a particular mecca for literature fans.

The city also has a large gay community and the annual Pride event attracts crowds from all over the world.

Overlooking San Francisco Bay, the city's most recognizable landmark is arguably the Golden Gate Bridge. (San Francisco hostels can offer travelers advice on where to hire a bike.)

Travelers can catch the ferry over to 'the Rock' where they are free to explore the island themselves or take a guided tour.

Great Tips For Effective Airline Travel

Executive summary about direct travel by Tom Tessin

For business meetings or for vacation holidays, people do travel a lot. To make your wilderness tour better, you need to focus on certain backpacking travel tips.

Effective Travel Tips:

Look at the weather conditions frequently. Security consulting agencies have rated few countries as world's most dangerous countries for tourists. Travelers/tourists need to avoid visiting these countries. If you still wish to visit these places, then travel with professional bodyguards only. Many travel insurance providers offer travel insurance plans for these types of journeys.

Other Vital Travel Tips:

You may rent a car for traveling on roads. If you are traveling alone, a small-sized car may be the perfect choice as small cars give more mileage. Cars with manual transmission have more power and more mileage than cars with automatic transmission. A GPS enabled car saves lots of time and money to travel through the routes you want. Next, depending on the location you intend to tour, decide whether to use an air-conditioned car or non air-conditioned car.
