Tourism Updates
Level Up Your Online Presence – Maine Destination Optimization Workshops
The first impression your business makes online to a potential customer is likely not your website – it is your business profile on Google or other major consumer travel planning platforms such as Tripadvisor, Yelp or Apple Maps. The Maine Office of Tourism is helping our tourism partners maximize their exposure and conversion on these platforms by providing FREE training and on-one support for businesses and organizations.

Look Out for ME is an initiative providing guidance on how to enjoy the outdoors safely and responsibly, with respect for the land and waters we all love. As more people than ever before venture out to explore the forests, mountains and coastlines that make Maine uniquely Maine, it’s natural that some might not know or may need a reminder of the ins-and-outs of responsible recreation.
