Have you noticed that the hotel industry is increasingly including the internet in their marketing efforts? They realize that their target market spends more time online than in front of a newspaper, and they have modified their marketing strategy this year.

Here are some predictions for online hotel marketing in the 2008...

1. They will position themselves as Value Hotels in the Philippines (or in this or that country, depending on the geo-targeted market). Other areas they will focus on are people searching online for cheap or (the better sounding) affordable hotels.

2. Hotel chains will jumpstart their marketing campaign by getting in touch with travel bloggers, who offer their readers timely tips on where to get the best deals or discount packages in various resorts or even hotels participating in eco-tourism programs.

3. Hotel operators will eventually set up their own blogs, as they strive to gain more editorial as well as cost control over their internet marketing campaigns.

So if you're a corporate blogger, position yourself in the unstoppable internet-aware decision makers of the travel, tourism, and hotel industry. With the low airfare fees and highly competitive discount travel promos, you can expect tourism marketers to use the internet to attract more travelers, business people, or even tourists to their multi-function roomed hotels.
