How to Get Featured in Local Media & Travel Blogs
Media coverage can boost credibility, visibility, and traffic to your business—but many local operators don’t know where to begin. Here’s how to get your story featured and make the most of the spotlight.
Why Media Features Matter
Being featured in a trusted publication or blog can instantly raise your profile and introduce your business to new audiences. It’s third-party validation that builds trust.
What Journalists & Bloggers Look For
- A Good Story: Focus on what makes you unique—history, transformation, passion, or an unusual experience.
- Strong Visuals: High-quality photos (and even video) increase your chances of being published.
- Timeliness: Link your story to something seasonal, trending, or newsworthy.
How to Pitch Your Business
- Start Local: Reach out to regional publications, lifestyle writers, and travel bloggers.
- Craft a Compelling Media Kit: Include a press release, business overview, images, and contact details.
- Personalise Your Approach: Address editors or bloggers by name and explain why their audience will love your story.
Building Long-Term Relationships
Media opportunities often come from ongoing connections. Be generous—share articles, tag journalists on socials, and stay in touch when you have updates.
Making the Most of Your Media Moment
- Share it across your website, social media, and newsletter.
- Print and display it in-store or at your venue.
- Repurpose quotes or snippets in your marketing.
Key Takeaways
