Seeing interactions on your travel website is definitely making you stand out from your competitors! So make space on your site where your customers can post comments and a place where your potential customers can see those comments. Perhaps you can add some kind of survey as well.

Specialized business review sites

There are a lot of sites that combine different travel business reviwes. One option is to let your customers leave a review and rate your service, but there are some sites that give you the posibility to pay for a profesional review by their consultants as well. This is not only helping your brand awareness, but also you SEO! For example, check this site: http://www.reviewcentre.com.

Don’t you dare to delete reviews. There is no need to be afraid of negative comments. See this as an opportunity to engage with your customer, resolve the issue and explain what you’re all about. It can also give your business the ability to show you care and that you’re listening!
