Tourism SEO Consultant. One Specialist. One Industry.

I Help Tourism Brands Get Found and Stop Paying Commission on Guests Who Were Already Looking for Them.

    Destination SEO Strategist for Hotels, DMOs, Travel and Tour Operators.

    Tourism Search Is Different. Your SEO Should Be Too.

    Most SEO strategies ignore how travelers actually make decisions. I build visibility around the full booking journey, from the first destination search to the final direct booking.

    One SEO Specialist. No Account Managers. No Generalists.

    When you work with me, you get direct access to the person doing the work. Someone who has spent a decade inside tourism search and understands what moves revenue.

    Tourism Industries I Work With

    Tourism search is not one market. A hotel competes differently than a DMO. A dive center has different search intent than a yacht charter company. I work across the full spectrum of travel and hospitality, with strategies built around how each segment actually gets found.

    SEO-for-DMOs-Destination-Organizations

    Destination Marketing Organizations

    DMO’s compete against the very platforms that list their attractions. I help DMOs reclaim authority in search, becoming the definitive source for travellers researching where to go, what to do, and how to get there. When someone asks Google or an AI about your destination, you should be the answer.

    SEO-for-Hotels-Resorts

    Hotels & Resorts

    Every direct booking saved from OTA commission is revenue reclaimed. I help hotels and resorts build organic search presence that reduces dependency on third-party platforms, bringing more guests directly to your booking engine at a fraction of the acquisition cost. Less Booking.com. More margin.

    SEO-for-Tour-Operators-and-Travel-Agencies

    Tour Operators & Travel Agencies

    Travellers search for experiences long before they search for operators. I help tour operators and travel agencies appear where the decision is made - during the research phase, when someone is comparing options for their trip. When they're ready to book, your brand will be already the trusted answer.

    SEO-for-Dive-Centres-and-Water-Sports

    Dive Centres & Water Sports

    This is where my story starts. I built the entire digital presence of a dive centre from scratch – branding, content, SEO, and booking funnel, turning it into the number one customer touchpoint for the business, outperforming social media, walk-ins, and referrals combined. I know this segment from the inside.

    SEO-for-Cruise-Yacht-Companies

    Cruise & Yacht Companies

    Cruise and yacht businesses operate in one of the highest-value segments of tourism and one of the most underserved from an SEO perspective. Most competitors rely on brokers and listing platforms. I help cruise lines, yacht charter companies, and liveaboard operators build direct organic visibility.

    SEO-for-Adventure-and-Outdoor-Brands

    Adventure & Outdoor Brands

    Travellers looking for ski resorts, safari operators, or rafting experiences search with high intent and very specific queries. I help adventure and outdoor brands capture that traffic directly, building content and technical foundations that turn search visibility into enquiries and bookings.

    Simple 4 Easy Steps

    The Process That Drives Real Results

    My five-step SEO process is built for tourism businesses that want to get more direct bookings. I start with a full audit, build a strategy around high-intent travel keywords, execute everything from technical SEO to content plan, and track results every step of the way. No guesswork. Just a clear, repeatable process that turns search visibility into revenue.

    01

    SEO Audit

    I analyze your current online presence, and show you exactly where you're losing customers to competitors.

    02

    Growth Strategy

    Based on the audit, I build a tailored local SEO plan focused on your market, your services, and your growth goals.

    03

    Full Execution

    I handle everything — on-page optimization, content creation, link building, technical SEO, and local citations.

    04

    Track & Report

    You get clear, jargon-free reports showing rankings, visibility, and leads generated every month.

    How I Can Help You Grow

    SEO Built Specifically for the Travel Industry

    Travel is one of the most competitive spaces in organic search. I offer a focused set of SEO services designed exclusively for tourism businesses. From technical foundations to content and visibility strategy. Everything I do is built around how travellers search, and book.

    Technical SEO for Travel & Tourism Websites

    Most travel sites lose organic traffic not because of bad content, but because of technical issues Google can’t ignore. Slow load times, crawl waste, broken structure. I specialise in technical SEO exclusively for tourism businesses: hotels, tour operators, and travel portals that need their pages found, crawled, and ranked.

    Content and Structure Strategy for Tourism

    Publishing content without a strategy is one of the fastest ways to waste your marketing budget in the travel industry. I build data-driven content strategies for tourism businesses that connect the right topics to the right traveller intent, at every stage of the booking journey.

    Multilingual SEO for Global Travel Brands

    Travel is global and your website should be too. I help tourism businesses reach international audiences by optimising for multiple languages and regions, from hreflang implementation to localised keyword research that goes beyond simple translation.

    AI Search & LLM Visibility for Tourism Businesses

    Travellers are increasingly turning to ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews to plan their trips, and most tourism brands are invisible in these results. I help travel businesses optimise their content and structure to get cited, referenced, and recommended by AI-powered search engines.

    Competitor & Market Analysis for Tourism Brands

    Knowing why your competitors outrank you is the first step to overtaking them. I map the SEO landscape of your market. Content gaps, backlink profiles, technical edges. You get a clear picture of where you stand and exactly where to focus.

    Local SEO for Tourism & Hospitality

    When travellers search for hotels, or attractions near them, local SEO determines who gets found first. I optimise your Google Business Profile, citations, and location pages to put your business in front of the right people at the right moment.

    Peter Sawicki Case Study Costa Rica Divers

    Costa Rica Divers had no website, no brand, and no search visibility.

    I was brought in to build everything from scratch. Site architecture, content strategy, booking funnels, and technical SEO. Every decision was structured around how travelers search for and choose dive experiences in a competitive market.

    Visible results of the SEO strategy within two months.

    Within two months, the site reached 300,000 search impressions. Organic search became the number one booking channel, outperforming social media, walk-ins, and referrals combined. The result came from understanding both sides of the equation: how search engines evaluate tourism content, and how travelers make decisions.

    The tourism SEO specialist you need.

    This is what happens when tourism SEO strategy is built around the industry, not borrowed from a generic playbook. And that’s exactly what I offer.

    Got Questions? Here Are the Honest Answers.

    Tourism SEO is a discipline and working with the right person matters. These are the questions clients ask most before we start. Answered directly, without the agency spin.

    Peter Sawicki SEO Tourism Consultant
    What types of tourism businesses do you work with?
    My background puts me closest to the businesses where I do my best work: hotels and resorts, dive centers, destination marketing organizations, yacht charter or liveaboard operators, and tour operators with a direct booking problem. If organic search is part of your acquisition model, there is likely something I can improve.
    Both. I work directly with hotels, DMOs, and tour operators, and I also partner with agencies that need a dedicated tourism SEO specialist on a project basis.
    Yes. I regularly work alongside in-house marketing teams, web developers, and content writers. I provide the strategy and SEO direction, your team handles execution, or we split it based on capacity.
    I start by understanding where you are losing visibility, not where you think you are. That means a technical crawl, a search landscape analysis, and an honest look at what your competitors are doing better. Strategy comes after diagnosis, not before.

    Practical guides, real audits, and no-fluff insights on tourism SEO, content strategy, and what actually moves rankings in a competitive travel market.
