Artificial Intelligence or AI, is already making a huge impact on a variety of global industries, including hospitality. Google has already seen success with their own AI implementations, including their fully AI-powered Performance Max ads, which have seen ‘on average over 18% more conversions at a similar cost per action’ vs. other paid search ads. A separate case study by Google found that India’s travel booking engine, Goibio, saw a 25% increase in hotel transactions with Smart Bidding, with a 22% lower cost per conversion rate for non-brand paid search campaigns.
With any new innovation, adopting AI into your tech stack requires understanding how and where this evolving technology can help your business, while also understanding the areas that need improvement and may become more helpful down the line. To help you learn how AI is improving digital marketing strategies such as paid search this article outlines everything you need to know and what to expect as this technology continues growing in usage and importance.
How can AI help with keyword research?
AI, particularly tools like BARD, can be an incredible asset for optimizing your keyword research. These tools can analyze vast amounts of data, including search trends, user behavior, and competitor strategies, to identify high-potential keywords. AI algorithms can uncover valuable insights that might be missed through manual research alone. By leveraging AI, Cendyn can optimize our customers’ keyword strategies, target relevant keywords with high search volumes, and improve organic search visibility.
How can voice search optimization be accomplished with AI?

By analyzing voice search queries and understanding the conversational nature of voice searches, AI tools can provide insights into user intent and long-tail keyword usage. With this information, we can optimize clients’ website content to align with voice search queries. AI-powered content generation can help create natural, conversational content that is more likely to appear in voice search results, improving clients’ visibility and driving targeted organic traffic.
How can technical website errors be fixed using AI?
AI can assist in identifying and fixing technical errors on websites. AI tools can crawl websites and detect common technical issues such as broken links, duplicate content, and slow page load times. By leveraging AI algorithms, we can quickly pinpoint these errors and provide recommendations for fixing them. Additionally, AI-powered monitoring can help detect and address technical issues in real time, ensuring a smooth and error-free user experience.
AI tools can also identify and fix structured data gaps by generating compatible JSON codes for hotel services. This improves search campaign performance and helps hotel clients excel in SEO by implementing schema data effectively.
How can AI help with marketing strategies around paid search?
AI can greatly enhance marketing strategies by providing data-driven insights and automation. AI tools can analyze large datasets to identify trends, customer behavior, and patterns. This information can guide the humans creating the marketing strategies, including content creation, audience targeting, and campaign optimization. AI-powered automation can streamline repetitive tasks, such as email marketing, ad targeting, and social media scheduling – allowing marketers to focus on strategic planning and creative initiatives.
Why is targeting brand keywords with AI important?

AI tools can analyze brand sentiment, monitor online mentions, and provide insights into customer perceptions. By targeting brand keywords effectively, we can ensure that clients’ websites appear prominently in search results when users search for their brand name. This not only increases brand visibility, but also helps reputation management and driving targeted traffic to clients’ websites. AI’s ability to analyze and respond to brand-related data allows Cendyn to tailor our marketing strategies and enhance our client’s brand recognition and online reputation.
