Get More Traffic from Google

Success in Google is paramount for today’s destinations. In our Destination SEO Study I examined 500 U.S. destination websites and found that on average 70% of all incoming traffic is from a search engine, primarily Google. The study also found that 61% of all destinations rely on search engines for at least 70% of their total website traffic. SEO is one of the driving factors that protect DMO’s funding and demonstrate improvement to the region’s tourism year after year.

SEO Growth Strategies for Destinations

This ebook contains 12 growth strategies that destinations can quickly implement to drive more search engine traffic. Use these strategies to jumpstart your SEO efforts, or get inspiration for new ideas.

I’ve been working as a SEO for over 10 years. I operate two destinations websites that have generated over $20,000,000 in hotel bookings becoming one of the highest converting sources of traffic for TripAdvisor, Marriott, Choice Hotels and more. I also lead all SEO efforts for the non-profit Adopt-a-Pet.com. At Adopt-a-Pet.com I was able to take search engine traffic from 300,000 visitors per month to over 4,000,000 visitors per month.
