Search Engine Marketing (SEM) Opportunities for lonelyplanet.com

Queries that provide opportunities for this site to advertise through Search Engine Marketing (SEM) to get more traffic. They are popular queries that are relevant to the site, and have low competition in search engine marketing. Learn More Many sites are actively advertising in search engines for the most valuable search queries. This high level of competition tends to result in high advertising costs, which makes it difficult to find attractive advertising opportunities. These opportunities may still exist, however, by looking at the "long tail". The long tail contains search queries with lower Query Popularity, but such queries also tend to have lower QCI. By advertising for many of these queries, sites may still be able to manage an effective search engine marketing campaign. Note that not all queries on the long tail may be very relevant to this site, but this list may contain a number of strong advertising candidates.

Extremely helpful for someone who wants to go through the details of individual countries, regarding their culture, history, geography, topographical details, political happennings, etc. A helpful guide on this planet.....i have got great help in my historical research about the Origin of Islam, The Arab Chaliphate as well as history of Europe. It will be wonderful, though, if more extensive details are provided on advanced search option. Keep going!

I have traveled for eight years and 60 countries, I use the Lonely Planet guidebooks regularly. The Thorntree in the website is good for research with a free connection before the trip, but very difficult to use from an internet cafe on the other side of the planet. I will say that the Thorntree was the only site that helped when I entered Iraq last year from Turkey and proceeded to travel for 35 days by bus or collectivo taxi to Basra. So if you go to a difficult or dangerous country it is maybe one of the few sites where both interactive and current information is available. Andy (...)

I find the Thorntree bulletin board the best bit about this site. It can be very good to get feedback and advice from other travellers but it can also be very slow to log into and the moderators don't seem to do a lot, so there are often trolls and snippy remarks that go unchecked.
