How does it work?
You can run your own "city-site" as part of the Synotrip network. Add content and promote the city-site as you see fit. You get to keep almost all the advertising revenue from your city-site.
With all these city-sites together on Synotrip.com each one attracts more viewers than it could on it’s own. Travelers seldom go to only one place in China - they want to see many places in China and it is most convenient for them to just use one website. We keep viewers coming back by providing quality content with a consistent brand and layout.
Synotrip already has thousands of links from other websites, thousands of users and hundreds of thousands of page views each month. This provides a great head start for city-site owners!
Why join Synotrip?
Here are a few of the common motivations for joining:
- Fun – Writing about life in the city involves… living in the city! To write about a tourist attraction, go there, enjoy it and try to truly understand it. It is about exploring and sharing your discoveries with others.
- Money – Run your city site and you get to keep most of the revenue! You can use all the ad spaces below the top banner as you please. Quickly set up Google ads, promote your own business, advertise a charity or sell advertising to local companies - it’s up to you. (read more)
- Satisfaction in building a comprehensive online resource – At Synotrip we are constructing a resource that is currently used by thousands of people interested in travel and life in China - each day! English teachers, business people, foreign students, and hordes of travelers have been arriving in China in increasing numbers. It is exactly these people that want to make use of Synotrip.
- No technical knowledge needed - While you run your city-site, the next-generation Synotrip system is being built. Major upgrades in functionality and usability are expected no later than early 2009.
What do you need to build a good city site?
- You need to be self-motivated. Adding one or two articles will not cut it but adding one or two short articles or listings a week will make an excellent site!
- Knowledge of your location. Viewers want information that is detailed, thoughtful and current.
- Writing ability. Getting the information is the first step; successfully communicating it to your audience is just as important. Fluency in the English language is a must.
- Chinese language ability is a definite plus. By using the "Itinerary" feature, viewers can make their own list of destinations. If you can add the correct Chinese names and addresses, viewers can get around your city more easily by printing their itinerary and showing it to Chinese cab drivers. If you can’t speak Chinese, see if you can get a Chinese friend to enter Chinese text for you.
