Who
Day Room Stay
In June, 2016, our agency was hired to help launch a new hotel booking website specializing in booking day rooms & featuring hotels that offer day room services.
Big Deal Agency created Social Media pages for the business, optimizing all outlets with fully keyword-optimized text and high-resolution, custom, branded graphics. We wrote and keyword-optimized all web content for the new site and created several keyword target pages (KTPs) to get the site ranking for key search terms in an organic Google search. We announced the launch of the website with a keyword-optimized Press Releases that were picked up by 600+ media outlets, and used our social media network to promote the release of the website and the site itself.
To bring more brand awareness to the site, we launched a community building campaign and grew the followers from a pool of qualified members of an ideal target audience. After sufficiently growing the online community, we switched our campaign strategy to a mobile device-only geo-targeted campaign that is served exclusively to a small radius of the airports served by day room hotels featured on the site, focusing on people who have been stuck at the airport due to a cancellation or delay. Concurrently, we launched a Wikipedia campaign, submitting and editing Wikipedia articles to create a presence on the well-regarded and well-ranked public reference site.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS:
Effective, low-cost advertising strategies have grown the online community to over 30,000 active followers
Over 1.2 million members of the ideal target market have been exposed to the website through an effective targeted campaign
100,000+ travelers of the ideal target market have booked through the ad they were served while browsing Facebook, Instagram, and 3rd party affiliate sites while located in close proximity to the featured hotels
Keyword-Optimized content, KTPs and timely Press Releases allowed the new site to quickly start ranking for key searchable terms
Developing a presence throughout Wikipedia gave the site another well-ranked source for SEO, as well as increased awareness of the business by placing it on an impartial, Encyclopedic public reference site, as well as linked Day Room Stay to several prominent and long-standing articles for established hotel and travel businesses
The site is regularly filling member hotels to capacity, reaching 30 rooms per day for their top hotel, equaling $650,000 in additional ARR
Utilizing existing social media to promote the site and featured hotels has created an effective, ongoing cross-promotion initiative
“30 day rooms per day, yielding an extra $1,770per day on rooms that would otherwise just stay empty.” - Member Hotel
