Free Advertising Opportunities
There are a number of opportunities to promote your Muscatine County business, attraction, event, etc. for free on different tourism websites. Below are the ones we've found so far (as well as the one we've created) and we'll be adding to this page any time we find another way for you to get the word out about the great things you do! Thanks for helping us get Muscatine on the map!
National Geographic Mississippi River Geotourism website
Located at mississippiriver.natgeotourism.com, the website offers the opportunity to have a listing to a variety of businesses, attractions, accommodations, public art, non-profits, etc. on the site through a nomination process. You can see all of the available nomination categories here. You'll be asked to choose one of those categories when you begin your nomination. The "Simple Guide to Nominating" document walks you through the process.
TravelIowa.com
TravelIowa.com is the website for statewide tourism in Iowa. It allows you to submit listings (for businesses, attractions, accomodations, etc.) and to submit events. You'll find the orange "Submit Listings" and "Submit Events" buttons at the bottom of the homepage. You'll need to create a login to submit a listing, but not to submit an event. Once you've clicked either button, you'll see a link to a video tutorial about how to do each. You can also view the videos on Youtube, at the links below.
The guidelines for submitting a listing to TravelIowa.com can be found here.
