What makes a travel website so unique when it comes to comparing hotel prices?

Dirt simple approach, I've used with several of my Travel Agent clients. 1) Determine your most lucrative destination (highest commissions for you). Say... Germany... 2) Determine starting point of most people visiting your destination. Say... Auckland New Zealand... 3) Run a Facebook Ad campaign targeting Auckland residents + pixel people clicking on your Ads, so your Ads stalk them. Simple. Cheap. Effective.

I'd love to hear more. I'm a travel professional with 9 yrs in the industry.

I'm not an immigration attorney, but I have made trips to Canada to find clients, and this is my understanding of the laws. If you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, you do not need a visa to come to the United States as long as you will not actually be working and receiving payment from U.S. businesses or employers while in the U.S. For example, you can visit the U.S. to attend trade shows, meetings, conferences, etc. without a visa. Here's a publication from the U.S. State Department that may help: http://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/BusinessVisa%20Purpose%20Listings%20March%202014%20flier.pdf

Hearty Congratulations on the Global Success of Your Worldwide (Social Networking) App. However : You Do Urgently Need to Get Yourself an American Immigration Attorney ; so that your F1 Visa Status in the USA will not Adversely Affect your Apparently (Rather) Successful Social Media Venture. Owning an American Company may not necessarily (or automatically) translate into getting a (Full-Fledged) American Investors Visa ; most especially if the USA Visa Officer did not see anything about a Profitable American Company on your F1 Visa Application Form. Find an Experienced USA Immigration Attorney (Quite Quickly). If you are able to get American (or International) Investors to Loan You about One Million Dollars (US$1,000,000), then perhaps the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Programme may (actually) be a Far Much Better Option for You ; most especially if you can employ at least Ten American Citizens in (certain) Economically Deprived Areas. (In Fact) As At Today : US$500,000 could possibly get you an EB-5 Investors Visa ; provided that you Employ about 10 (Ten) American Citizens from Targeted Employment Area (TEA) Zones. Good Luck.

Most people -- regardless of their company or product -- go about attracting press the wrong way. The publications exist to provide value to their readers and increase their own readership. Rather than proclaiming how your product is the most amazing thing since sliced bread, think about it from the publication's point of view. How will YOU help THEM solve a problem for THEIR readers? Secondly, do your research on which author/contributor/editor/writer to contact. Not all cover the same topic, nor do they all have the same interests. What may be appealing to one may look like spam to the next. Understand who on staff covers your industry or similar products. Look at what features they highlighted in other product/service reviews; these are the issues they feel are important to their readers. Help them solve THEIR problem and they'll write about you all day long.
