*Hotel website and booking engine are Number One.<\/strong> This is probably nothing new to you, but your hotel\u2019s website is the best opportunity that you have to engage and sell to your guests. On average, guests spend 6 minutes on hotel websites. 6 minutes is ample opportunity to engage your future guests with bold pictures, easy-to-read room descriptions and attractive offers that make the decision to book simple and predictable. One additional important item is to show what guests will experience when they come to your destination: ensure video is part of your web strategy and you will mesmerize your guests. So, when was the last time you updated your website? If the answer is more than 2 years ago, your website could probably be a lot better.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

*60% of consumers are social travelers.<\/strong> According to Forrester, 60% of guests use one or more social networking platforms during their search, shop and buy process. Hence, it is critical to manage trip advisor ratings, have a professional-looking presence on facebook, and allow guests to engage over twitter. And to use the social network to amplify your message, ensure that good experiences your guests write about are shared on the different digital communities. For photos we see the best results using Flickr and for videos a dedicated YouTube channel. And don\u2019t forget email: it is still the most widely mechanism used to share itineraries and ideas of trips.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

*Mobile consumers will demand optimized content in 2017.<\/strong> Mobile traffic is the fastest growing category in digital marketing, and to no surprise also in travel. Google research states that 21% of all hotel searches are already executed on a mobile device. If you deployed a mobile solution in 2016, you will realize that mobile consumers have a much more utilitarian behavior \u2013 they are looking for the hotel\u2019s address, phone number, or want to book a room for tonight or tomorrow night. Hence, the experience to conclude those tasks must be optimized in 2017. While success can be found using mobile as a stand-alone media, it provides the largest rewards when it is used as an integrated, multi-channel engagement platform. If you can provide consistent messages across web, social and mobile, while ensuring that the most relevant offers are prioritized then you truly have provided multi-channel digital marketing.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

*Innovate with marketing campaigns.<\/strong> Digital marketing is not a one-time project. It is a new discipline that must be embraced by hotel managers. However, digital marketing does not necessarily require learning a lot of new tools and hiring a lot of new staff. Using the appropriate tools, hotel managers can use their existing e-commerce and reservations staff to create campaigns, follow-up and reap the rewards of increased marketing exposure: more and better bookings. So, choose your tools to minimize setup costs and provide maximum flexibility when creating your campaigns.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In conclusion, a successful digital marketing strategy must provide a consistent multi-channel experience to hotel guests. This can
\nbe achieved by using a multitude of tools or an all-in-one hotel digital marketing platform. But no matter which tools you select, at
\nthe core of your strategy should be a digital marketing architecture that prepares your hotel for future digital marketing demands.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
