Thank you for your 130 ideas indeed very useful stuff, I just wanted to point out the European market behaves a bit different than the American market, maybe in the future we could see some of your expertise focused in this market.
By the way I think we do many of the things you mention so be happy we follow your advise!!! Happy 2010.

Josiah, great overview! I think that many people forget about the power of Internet in going global that’s why I am really glad you mentioned “Going Global” in your post.
“60% of online searches are conducted in other languages than English” – what are the most common search languages apart from English? where can I find this data?

I wouldn’t choose, because the cost difference is so minimal to produce video these days. If I had to spend a budget, I’d get a professional crew to shoot the images for the virtual tour, and then produce a hotel video on my own using a Flip camera or similar. Or, I’d get my guests to do it. Remember, always try to tell the story through the voice of your guests.

Dear Josiah,

If you had to choose between a video and a virtual tour for the website of a Boutique hotel, which one would you recommend and why?
