At least a hundred people responded to the call of the Tourism Trust Fund (Fidetur) of the city and yesterday in the afternoon "they chatted and twitted" in the corridors of City Hall of Puerto Vallarta doing promotion in social networks within the framework of the presentation of the new website of the city (www.visitapuertovallarta.com), which was formally launched with this event.

In the event held yesterday, for several hours the "twitters" managed to position the hashtag called # visitapuertovallarta in first place for the Early and Late trends, which means a major media impact in a global scale, the intent, said the tourism authorities is to keep alive in the minds of the users of social networks the presence of Puerto Vallarta, "this arouses the curiosity of travelers and you can even make online reservations".

The director of the Tourism Trust Fund, Guillermo Ohem, considered it very important to renew the image of the city's website, since that way it remains fresh, with an innovative appearance, attractive and especially with advanced technology that allows to have links to a large number of hotels, restaurants, travel agencies, tour operators and a large number of service providers.
GREAT RESPONSE
Starting at 5 pm began the concentration of social network users, who with their lap tops, smart phones and other devices that can connect to the network, immediately got to know the new official website of the city to make "likes", in a way that through facebook and twitter there began to be a heavy promotional traffic of Puerto Vallarta; the invitation was to post messages and positive images of this tourist destination, to position it as a leading topic in social networks.

For his part, hotelier Marcelo Alcaraz, reported at about 6:30 pm that the Visitapuertovallarta hashtag had already placed in the top of the trends in Mexico, representing a large number of followers and a solid promotion of the city; he stressed that with recent applications of smart phones, tablets and lap tops it will be possible to make online reservations, make payments for certain activities in the city, and thus facilitate the arrival of visitors.

"Today from a smartphone or tablet a person in Los Angeles or New York, can at this time, make a reservation for airplane tickets, lodging, tours, car rentals and a lot of services through his smart phone or tablet. For this reason, having a very attractive page and a number of cutting-edge applications puts us in competition with global destinations".
