The internet is a wonderful and interactive medium that has many free tools that you can use to attract the attention of guests and drive them through your hotel doors. One such tool is ‘Online Videos’. An online video despite the implication does not necessarily have to be a movie clipping or a resized TV Ad; it can be a ‘how-to’ video that demonstrates how something works, a travel monologue or even a short documentary. This atypical form of advertising can be a very effective because of its popularity amongst online users. YouTube, the most popular video sharing website receives billion of views per day. By creating and uploading a video onto a video sharing website like YouTube, you can direct the attention of these millions towards your hotel.

An Online Video campaign is not a typical marketing and sales campaign wherein you create a hardcore sales video that emphasis the pros of your hotel i.e. it is not a video brochure. Typical advertising i.e. T.V. ads are termed as ‘lean back’ content because viewers consider them an interruption and have no choice whether they view the ads or not. Online Videos on the other hand are consider to be ‘lean forward’ content because online users search and choose to view. This difference increase the weight-age a viewers assigns the video.

An Online Video campaign is an extremely subtly form of marketing that leverages your hotel with the aid of another product or attraction. For example, if you have a hotel in Goa, you could consider creating short video clips of the best clubs, great restaurants, festivals etc. Any subject, activity or places that a person might research before selecting your destination i.e. you should create and upload videos that provide the viewer with some interesting, helpful and/or related information about attractions around your hotel.
