Magic Costa Blanca launches internet search challenge

The Magic Costa Blanca hotel group in Benidorm has launched an international competition to find Europe’s Best SEO (search engine optimisation) expert this summer. The group launched the challenge in Spain last year and, following its huge success, is now extending it to seven other countries, including the UK.

The challenge for companies or individuals is to develop a website or blog that will come up first when searching for the keyword “eurodipity” on Google. The online content must be related to tourism in the Region of Valencia, the Costa Blanca or Benidorm, or to Magic Costa Blanca hotels.

The UK’s Best SEO winners will be the top three entries found on Google.co.uk when searching for this keyword at 12:00h (CET) on 5th September 2008. There are three top prizes of a week’s stay for two people at one of the following Magic Costa Blanca hotels in Benidorm: the Villa Venecia Hotel, Villa del Mar Hotel or Rock Garden Hotel. The winners must be British nationals.

There will also be a special Europe’s Best SEO award for the top entry found on the Swiss search engine Google.ch. The winner will receive a MacBook AIR with Flash Memory, as well as a week’s stay at the Villa Venecia hotel in Benidorm.

Participants may find inspiration for their site’s content on the Valencia Region Tourist Board website - Comunitatvalenciana.com.
