Cerebro Marketing works with a few hotels in Las Vegas and nothing kills our cost per conversions like poor performing keywords. We recently identified Online Travel Agents as a source of negative keywords. We went looking in various places and found some lists of OTA’s but we decided to put a list together for ourselves. We hope you find this list useful and it saves you a few hours in optimization. Copy and paste as needed and check some of the negative keywords below to ensure they don’t conflict with your keywords. We have placed various keywords in the exact match variation to limit any issues (i.e. [best travel coupon]).
