Japan ski business advertising

Get your ski or snow related business in front of thousands of potential customers!

Place your business advertising in our hands, the most popular English guide to Myoko-Nagano region.

Myoko-Nagano unites the local ski and travel community like never before. It is the home base for all things current within the region: news, weather, snow reports, videos, photos, forum, events and more. Unlike other ski websites (which are world wide or all-Japan), we are focused on a hyper-targeted and responsive demographic in the local region. Myoko-Nagano and its partners are a recognisable logo/brand that speaks for itself. Our web visitors can connect with freestyle AND backcountry skiers, recreational AND hardcore skiers plus general travellers to the region.

Background

Myoko-Nagano is the recognised authoritative guide to Myoko Kogen and the surrounding Nagano areas of the Japan ‘White Triangle’. The website was launched in 2003 as the first English website focused solely on the area and is now the most popular and informative English portal for the Shin’etsu-kogen (northern Nagano) region, in particular – Myoko Kogen, Madarao Kogen, Nozawa Onsen, Nagano City, Hakuba, Matsumoto, Lake Nojiri-ko & Togakushi, as well as Japan Snow Monkeys. The site has the widest available range of accommodation in all of these areas – and all booking can be done online in English.

Why advertise with us?

We are recognised and trusted as the authoritative guide to the region

We are the leading online voice for Myoko Kogen and the surrounding regions. Although some other sites may claim to get more ‘clicks’ our focus is on only the local area. Visitors will not be overwhelmed and/or tempted by information from other resort areas and/or countries. This means that our visitors are far more relevant and likely to stay longer. Then, in turn, purchase or book via links on the site – thereby creating better value for advertisers.

We are not owned, operated or formally affiliated to any ski company, tourist board, government body or travel organisation. Therefore we are not under any commercial pressure to be biased toward certain interests and/or provide incorrect or misleading information. We often receive messages and emails thanking us for the services and unbiased information we provide.

The website also been linked or recognised as the authoritative guide by a variety of websites and travel companies including MSN Travel, HIS, JNTO France, Sydney Morning Herald, Lonely Planet, The News Corporation Travel Section and Qantas Travel Insider plus many, many others.

Comprehensive website(s)

We have literally hundreds of pages of useful information for our visitors. In 2012 we totally revamped to a new style as well as launching our own comprehensive booking engine. Further upgrading and improvements are continually undertaken. A redesigned website will be launching in late-2018/early-2019 with heightened functionality and features.

You can reach thousands of potential travel customers

More than 1,000 consumers each day research their Japan vacations using Myoko-Nagano and our partner sites (and many more during winter – nearly 60,000 total across four sites in January 2016) from all around the world. These particularly come from Australia, Europe and the U.S.A, as well as Japan – with visits averaging at least five minutes. Introduce your travel products and services (hotel, B&B, activity, tour package, rental/retail shop, restaurant, etc.) to thousands of qualified travellers. Around 50% of visitors usually ‘out click’ to one or more of the business links listed on the site, such as accommodation or ski areas.

Search engine reach

With targeted SEO our sites perform outstandingly. The Heart of Japan sites are usually listed within the top three listings with popular search terms on all major search engines, sometimes TWICE within the top threeadvertise japan ski tours with a global traffic ranking of around 140,000 in the world.

Social media reach

Depending on the package negotiated we can also link your business at the top of our popular and comprehensive Google maps in your area, on our Facebook pages, Twitter, blog posts, our forum and other social media. Some of our Facebook posts/videos/pics have received thousands of views and likes.

Case studies

One local hotel previously received all of their bookings via agencies and booking engines. After listing on myokokogen.net and myoko-nagano.com in 2015/16, and allowing us to assist with their bookings, their private foreign reservations zoomed from 0% to 80%!

Another foreign-owned lodge promotes solely through two of our sites – no booking engines, no agencies. Since opening in 2014/15 they have consistently achieved 80-90% occupancy and guests remark on finding the lodge through our sites.
