Destination Melbourne looks to back tourism businesses
Destination Melbourne is keen to let tourism businesses across greater Melbourne know how they can leverage off Tourism Australia’s latest campaign.
Tourism Australia’s resurrection of Crocodile Dundee in a commercial at the Super Bowl has generated a massive surge in traffic to Australia’s official destination website, Australia.com.
Australia.com draws its content about Australian tourism businesses from listings on the Australian Tourism Data Warehouse (ATDW), making this an ideal time for businesses to update their listing or list themselves now, to take full advantage of the flurry of interest in Australia.
Destination Melbourne team member, Yolanda Baker, is dedicated to helping businesses across greater Melbourne’s tourism landscape get their listing right.
Here is the story we are sharing on our website and social media channels, and we invite you to do In Victoria alone, more than 50 key tourism websites draw on ATDW listing content, providing with organic traffic and valuable links from many highly credible tourism websites including australia.com and visitvictoria.com
Baker suggests the following sample social media messages.
