TravelPost.com is offering a free hotel internet marketing programme to help hotel managers and owners direct customers to their own websites or phone reservations systems.

The company says it is the only major hotel reviews website to offer these hotel marketing services for free and to consistently display official hotel contact information to travelers.

Sam Shank, chief executive officer, TravelPost.com said, “…we’ve found that visitors to our site highly value having official phone numbers and direct website links alongside links to online travel agencies. This programme allows us to provide travelers with the accurate information they need, while strengthening our relationships with hotels at the same time.”

If a hotel is not currently listed on TravelPost.com, property managers can request it be added, also for free. All submissions are screened by the TravelPost.com editorial staff, and all of these hotel marketing services are free of charge.

Additionally, TravelPost.com offers a unique RSS feed for each property that includes the three most recently posted reviews. Property managers are encouraged to add this feed to their RSS news reader to track new reviews from TravelPost.com members. Property managers can respond to a review, and these comments will be displayed alongside the original traveler’s comments.
