Paid Placement |
Search Engines generally uses the term "paid placement" to describe ads that guarantee placement, but others may refer to these ads in different terms, including "sponsored listings," "paid search ads," "pay for placement," "pay for performance," "CPC listings" (cost-per-click) and "PPC listings" (pay per click). Find out how they impact traffic to your website. |

Social Media |
Social media describes the online technologies and practices that people use to share opinions, insights, experiences, and perspectives. Social media can take many different forms, including text, images, audio, and video. These sites typically use technologies such as blogs , message boards, podcasts, wikis, and vlogs to allow users to interact. What do you need to incorporate? |

Organic Search |
Organic Search Engine Optimization has been a popular topic over the past few years. To 'optimize' a website simply means to build it so that it will be discovered by search engines and returned as a relevant result to potential customers driving more traffic to your website. Brands such as Marriott and Hilton have just recently implemented organic optimization techniques on their brand sites. So how do you become "Brand Optimized"? |

Revenue Management and Distribution Strategy |
In this session we look at Travel 2.0 and its profound impact on Revenue Management as we know it today.

What is Travel 2.0 and why should you care about it?
