In speaking with business owners across the Southwest we’ve found an interesting trend when discussing the images on their websites. Often times business owners will head out onto the Web and find images they like.

Mobile trends you should know about
This morning I received a mailer from Adobe. They’re the guys who create great software like Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator (just to name a few). The e-mail was titled “Mobile Trends for 2014.” And the information in the mailer was pretty compelling. From the initial statement the tone is set.

And what I’m seeing in the referral numbers is a little shocking to both …

Today I’ve posted a quick video on the value of mobilized websites for RV Parks. It’s only 5 minutes long, so hopefully that’s short enough for folks with a limited …
The Allstays App – Getting parks a new client base
Many months ago as I discussed my idea of renovating RV Park websites with an old friend they’d suggested I check out the AllStays app for my IPhone and IPad. It’s a fantastic little app that is only $10, and you can use it to find campgrounds anywhere across the U.S. Experimenting with it I’ve found the information to be …
Advertising on Internet Travel Blogs

That’s a positive, and if you find the right places to advertise you’ll see growth for your own business. More often than not though, many travel blogs are not going to bring you additional business.
