How will our Culinary Capitals certification be promoted?
We promote your certification through our own, hand-curated network of thousands of media professionals around the world. In the past, we’ve worked with major outlets like CNN, the BBC, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Arirang (Korea) and many more, so we've built relationships with these same outlets. And of course, will promote your destination on our social media channels. And we will post a news article on our website, which will help boost the SEO value of your certification.
Your destination will also have its own page on our dedicated Culinary Capitals website, presenting your area as a Culinary Capital. This page will then hyperlink to one or more pages on your own website (such as a special culinary travel or culinary tours section). Then you will do your own promotions in similar channels. You will also be able to use your customized Culinary Capitals annual logo in all your promotions.
