tip for vendor |
Recording tag words to a listing Tag words should indicate the main or predominate feature of the venue Warning: wrong tag words will mislead visitors - it may result in negative comments in the venues' guest book page. Tips: Recording tag words when recording the tag word, enter ONLY part of the word and wait for the pop up table. If the existing word appears, use the down arrow to accept, otherwise complete the new tag word. use the "," to separate tags ie., tags can apply to one word or multiples. example: bar, bar sports, bar wifi-free, if your not sure what to do - search a suitable existing listing, copy and paste the tags, or contact Longdo or their registration agents for help.
Best practice.. if your not a high volume user - pay a fee a good result!
| Venue owner best tips Below are tips using the "tag" features to best match visitors search results. remember apply tag words that best match search words used by customers, if in doubt just ask a few customers.
Best search tag words Tag Icon: Fastrack maps: refer to the topic of interest Value added service: create maps to display nearby attractions that offer benefit to your visitors tag the venues and control what appears on your display map! Map pages can be printed in English or Thai Longdo mobile
