Good Domain Names for Baltic Sea
Hotels
After travelling to a Rügen hotel and
finding inspiration there, when all I wanted was a break, I
returned home ready to take on my new business venture. I had a
grand plan to start a blog, and review hotels. In return, the
hotel in question would advertise my blog, and after the blog
became popular I could charge people membership fees and
advertising. I was all set to go, full of enthusiasm and keen
as mustard.
After my holiday in Rügen, I began by
reviewing the hotel I had stayed in. It was marketed as a three
star, but had undergone renovations to become a five star – but
their website was still sadly lacking and not a good
advertisement for them.
I had booked other trips to Rügen over the next few months,
with a view to staying in some of the other hotels, and the
managers there had discussed discounts for a great review. It
was a win-win situation – I’d get cheap accommodation and
they’d get a glowing report, encouraging people to stay
there.
Then I hit upon a problem. I could give them all the reviews
they wanted, but the hotel would still need a great website,
and although there were many hotels that had been around for
some time, there were new ones popping up all the time. Domain
names were a necessity, and sometimes what they were after had
already been purchased or wasn’t catchy enough. So I expanded
my business. I advertised domain names for Baltic Sea hotels
(Ostsee Ferienwohnung), and created
packages whereby people could buy a domain name, a website,
and a review on my blog. I hired some of my friends to
create the websites, and bought an account at a leading
domain name registry. I added the new services to my
business card, updated my blog and created my own website.
Soon, I had custom from other parts of the Baltic Sea, not
just my own country of Germany and the islands. Sweden and
Finland became huge customers, with leading hotel chains
seeking my services and paying me to review their hotels on
my blog. I began sending out my friends – now partners – to
hotels all over the Baltic Sea to review them. Most were
excellent, but of course there were the hotels that needed a
lot of T.L.C. and even some we couldn’t stay in for a
night.
Business boomed, and I did it all from my little Baltic Sea
apartment. Larry and Harold, my fish, were my mascots and after
a year or two I had to hire more staff. That meant I had to
rent office space, and get a dedicated phone line. Things just
grew and grew, and I could never have foreseen that my trip to
a Rügen hotel would have ended up in a
huge business empire – and me having a personal assistant!
Not to mention my secretary and a human resources officer to
manage my staff. If I can do it, anyone can!
