THE SHORT VERSION

Owned media is content and channels a business controls, such as its website and blog, where it decides what to publish.

Owned media is content and channels a business controls, such as its website and blog, where it decides what to publish.

Owned media covers a business’s own publishing properties and content, such as its website and blog. The business controls the material it publishes there. This differs from buying advertising placement or receiving coverage that another publisher chooses to produce. Source: Mailchimp: Owned media

Give each resource a purpose

List the questions the website should answer before someone enquires, such as what an itinerary includes or how room options differ. Assign an owner to each important page. This turns a content collection into an organised source of useful answers.

Build maintenance into the plan

Keep a review date and evidence links with pages containing changeable details. Schedule a check when a supplier updates the relevant offer. Allow time for that work when planning the content budget, so publishing capacity includes keeping existing material accurate.
