6.1 Website Marketing Strategy

Market strategy in an Internet room-booking business depends on recognition of expertise by the consumer.  For the Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast, it will start with our existing brick-and-mortar customer base, informing them of our Internet presence and encouraging their word-of-mouth recommendations to others.  Further awareness will be heightened by utilizing search engine marketing, banner advertising, and affiliates.
