Hey, I'm Ben and I wanted to start a discussion about what people to do attract more readers to their blog.
I run a travel blog ( www.thetravelpocketguide.com/ ) , and we've seen various success through different advertising channels and strategies. I thought it would be both thought provoking and beneficial to share what's worked best for our blog, and see what other people think is the best way to getting your travel blogging content seen by more people!
How do you promote your travels blogs and what works best?
Here's what strategies I've implemented:
1. Facebook groups
Not only am I posting content to other groups but I've created my own two travel groups to grow our own community and future distribution network. Of course, when sharing content to other groups you must follow the group rules and make sure the content is relevant. My two groups are called Beach Holidays, and the other is called City Breaks. I thought the beach focused group would be more appealing...

Hi,
I am planning for a kick-off in Tokyo for one of my companies, Does anyone out there know who to contact for accommodation and event arrangements or is there one out there who might be an expert to handle this request?
Best,
Christian
Hi @christian.
Some time ago I posted a discussion about first time tips for Japan and I got a nice recommendation for a call with a local travel planner: www.thatch.co/seller/services/consultation/@kansai
You might find that helpful!
Hi Maria, thanks for the tip.
Hi Christian,
You'll just need to book a venue and perhaps catering, depending on the nature of the party. How many people are you thinking of? And what style? (casual, fancier, at a hotel, etc). I'm not an event planner, but I can help you navigate things around and connect you with other people who can help!
Hi Ally,
In all, there are 45 persons at the moment. They are looking for a accommodation (sgl-rooms), activities like a go-cart ride in the city, bar crawl, and an excursion to Mt. Fuji. As most of them are around 30 years of age it should be a quite casual style of accommodation and most of their free time is to have fun.

Hi Christian, I'm really sorry for my late reply. With 40+ people, I think the best way is to reach out to a local tour organizer who can help you with everything from booking hotels to attractions and tours. There is a Facebook group of very friendly Japan-based tour operators who are always eager to help. Please post your query there and I'm sure you'll find the support you need. Here's the link: www.facebook.com/groups/380467466432796
Hi Ally, thanks for the tip
Hi Christian.
Have you contacted EXO Travel in Japan? They have a great MICE department.
Another option is Iain Bitran whos an official MICE Ambassador for Fukuako in Japan so probably has a varied network to help you with. www.linkedin.com/in/ibitran
