How do I submit a bylined article?

Please email the article to info@hotel-online.com for consideration. Hotel Online staff will determine if the article is approved for posting.

Our criteria for posting and distributing articles such as these free of charge are that they are educational, substantive, benefit the hotel industry as a whole, and completely void of marketing/advertorial or self-promotion. No links or company mentions.

We do not have a deadline or a word count limit. Just try to keep them from being too lengthy.

Provide a short bio for the author, a headshot, and contact information. You may have a link to the company in the bio.

If the article is not approved, the sender will be notified and can choose to purchase a posting and distribution position.

How do I submit an event?

Email the details to info@hotel-online.com. Please include the event title, location, start date, end date, and event link.

Why is there a fee for property award postings?

With as many awards and accolades for properties worldwide, we do not post award releases unless the property or management company agrees to the posting and distribution fee. We occasionally cover industry awards if all recipients are included in the release.
