Dear Questions Team,
I have recently helped launch a new site for Luxury Villa rentals in
Europe, I wondered where would be the best place to submit this site
to. I am looking for suggestions on travel directories, travel forums
anywhere the site can get exposure!
The site offers villa rental services in Italy, Spain, Greece, France,
Portugal and Morocco, the service is world wide and I would like to
add it to as many travel sites as possible.
Thank you.
Hi,
Below is a long list of sites which you can list your website with, or
would be good to advertise with because of the traffic they have and
content they present. After that are a few places you will want to get
listed by if you can, and then the reference links on where I found
these lists.
However, before we get to that area, you can lead horses to water, but
sometimes its best to get them thirsty first. One way to accomplish
this, with sites like yours, is to write (or have written) articles
regarding the areas where your rentals are at. Travel articles, food
articles, stories about local landmarks, or out of the way places.
Articles, which make the area you are at, appealing. Once these
articles are written, have them published on travel ezines with the
author link pointing back to your site.
You can get a list of ezines on this site.

Many of the sites I have listed below would publish articles like
these as well, and the author links are more likely to be clicked on
by the readers than ad links, or a directory listing.
