Google Keywords and Travel Myths

This page is dedicated to how people search the Internet and for more information to how the Internet works.

Of course Accommodation businesses want everyone to Google just “accommodation” and Restaurants businesses want everyone to Google just “restaurants” the question is… does everyone do that?

The unfortunate answer is NO….. that’s right this may shock you but then of course all accommodation websites will tell you that’s the only thing people type because their running purely an accommodation website.

The truth is that people Google some really weird stuff which can summed up as whatever they are thinking in their head. Welcome2Australia is happy to disclose to you examples, as you can see above. Search engines work with the principle of word + word + word + word ect to come up with the search results that are then displayed in the Google index for the searcher to see. This is because computers cannot think or read sentences and can only go on word by word to come up with a result for you.

Now how does this work?. It’s actually quite simple. Each page of a website contains words and information. When someone searches for things, Google finds pages that contain these words on pages as well as the title, Meta tabs and keywords that are contained on that that web page.

For example when someone Google’s “Student stays and specialised experiences” Google looks for websites that contain these words. Because Welcome2Australia has these words close together in sequence on the accommodation page of the website, then Welcome2Australia is listed in the search index at the top on the first page of results out of millions of websites. Another fine example is “best accommodation places in Maroochydore”. This is also why you will find a 300-word paragraph on the bottom of each page where your advert is located. The paragraph is specifically optimised to help people find your advert which links to your website giving you traffic and business.

Once a Website is Found

Also remember that finding a website is one thing but is that website actually appealing and what function does it have?. In the case of Welcome2Australia you will probably agree it sells the concept of “Hey let’s go on a Holiday” as when they look at the pretty pictures of the town you’re in, they develop the need to travel. (It’s the same reason travel agents have brochures with pretty pictures of countries and its how you get sold on traveling). Once people have decided to go on holiday, what are they going to do next? Click the where to stay tab right?

Anyhow join the club and advertise on Welcome2Australia as there are only ever 8 spots per town for your competitive benefit. Some areas are already sold out and if yours is don’t worry about contacting us as we can’t include you…Sorry
