Visit Albuquerque Partner Benefits

Internet Listing

It is the single most powerful marketing tool of the century. More and more consumers are tapping into the information available on the Internet. Visit Albuquerque's website contains the most up-to-date comprehensive information about Albuquerque for visitors, meeting planners, travel trade and media. All of Visit Albuquerque's publications are duplicated in some form and can be found on the website. 

The Internet Listing differs from the printed Visitor Guide listing. Visit Albuquerque's website features all active marketing partners. With their membership, partners receive a 100-word listing, up to ten photos, links to their website, e-mail address and Social Media pages and a map for visitors to locate their business.  When partners purchase additional categories in the printed Visitor Guide, they also receive an additional website listing for that category.
